Eleven years after its inception (at a tiny bar in the Tenderloin) RADICAL PERFORMANCE FEST is still shaking up the Bay Area by presenting diverse, vital local artists who are all about changing the world with their thought-provoking, passionate performances.

The RPF'05 features some of the finest, known and emerging, local artists/performers who are chosen not only because of the high caliber of their work, but because their vision speaks directly to the need for
creative action in responding to the local and global issues of our times!

**Price: $10 to $25 sliding scale (Tix sold nite of show only)
Box Office: 7:30pm Show: 8pm To volunteer or to reserve a ticket call: (415) 282-3104*

*All of the artists and producers are donating their time. 100% of the proceeds after expenses goes to the Art in Action Youth Scholarships, the "Attica to Abu-Ghraib" conference and Betita Martinez, one of our most vital movement mentors facing a physical challenge.
