Get out of the boardroom and onto the stage
The Bay Area’s weekly roundup of arts, culture, and community | May 29 to June 4, 2026
Looking for something a little different than a company retreat? Ditch the conference room with some company from Berkeley Rep at Work. Perfect for coworkers, teammates, or even a squabbling family, you can learn news ways of problem solving that have proven effective in the most stressful of situations on the stage and off. Who knows, you may find a hidden talent. — Ciara
