The Fre - Oakland Theater Project at Oakland Theater Project1501 Martin Luther King Jr Way, Oakland, CA 94612 in Oakland, CA on Saturday, June 27, 2026.
Let’s get together and do something a little different. I love experimental theater but don’t find it as often as I might like, so this feels like a fun chance to see something playful, bold, strange, messy, and alive., The show begins at 7:30. We will meet at 6:30, so we will have time to chat and get seats together. *The Fre* is a queer, all-ages play by Taylor Mac that turns the theater into a wild, joyful world inside a literal ball pit. Part mud-riot, part rave, the play explores what happens when freedom becomes chaotic, conformity hides inside collective joy, and language begins to dissolve into play. The result is both liberation and collapse — a muddy reminder that freedom can unite us, but it can just as easily devour us. Raucous, raunchy, and unexpectedly tender, *The Fre* explores freedom across class and tribal lines, reminding us that connection, play, and solidarity may be the only way out. Don’t miss this wild and generous work from a contemporary genius of the American theater, directed by Mylo Cardona.
