History


Marin Theatre was founded in 1966 as the Mill Valley Center for the Performing Arts (MVCPA) when 35 Mill Valley residents came together under the leadership of Sali Lieberman. The nonprofit organization brought arts as diverse as film, theater, poetry, dance and concerts of classical, jazz and folk music to Marin County for a decade. After a number of successful community theater productions, MVCPA began to exclusively produce and present theater performances in 1977.
The small group overcame many challenges to put on critically acclaimed, award-winning plays in a golf clubhouse, a veterans’ auditorium and several schools and parks. To acknowledge the organization’s specialization in theater arts and expand regional focus, MVCPA changed its name to Marin Theatre Company (MTC) in 1984. This marked the beginning of a period of extraordinary growth. By 1987, MTC had become a professional theater company, opening its own theater complex with onsite administrative offices and joining with other local theaters to negotiate the first regional equity contract in the Bay Area. MTC began a new play program to support emerging American playwrights, launching a New Works developmental workshop and public reading series in 2004 and establishing two new play prizes in 2007. MTC joined the League of Resident Theatres and the National New Play Network in 2008. The organization discontinued use of the term "Company" in 2024, and is known today as Marin Theatre.
