Presidio Theatre to get makeover

It looks like the Northside is going to get one more performance space. This summer the Presidio Theatre, located on the Main Post, will begin a two-year rehabilitation that will result in what the Presidio Trust is calling a “high quality and affordable multipurpose space for live theatre, film, dance, music, lectures, educational programming, and special events.”

According to the Trust, the revivified building will feature a 650-seat theatre, a new pavilion, and a new courtyard. A new nonprofit organization will be set up expressly to support and operate the venue.

The rehab effort is being supported by a partnership between the Margaret E. Haas Fund and the Presidio Trust.
