We’re literally underground — in the basement of Chrysler Hall.

Scope Garage Parking — Drive into the Scope Parking Garage (St Pauls Blvd & E Bute St), stay to the right and drive down the ramp to the bottom level (U), and follow the Generic Theater signs around the perimeter (past the exit ramp) until you reach the underground theater entrance inside the garage.

Chrysler Corner Stairwells — Starting from the fountain plaza on the west side of the building, approach the Chrysler Hall Box Office and  enter via one of the red corner doors flanking the ticketing windows (see arrows in picture), walk down the stairs to the bottom level, and follow the Generic Theater signs through the garage to the underground theater entrance.

We hope you’ll stay in touch with us. In addition to our various online outlets (@GenericTheater on Instagram, Facebook, and elsewhere) we encourage you to sign-up for our email newsletter. We’ll keep you informed of upcoming productions, audition notices, special events, and more.

After decades as the gentle-natured leader of a Christian retreat that endeavors to “cure” gay teens, Walt is packing up his life and preparing for a reluctant retirement. But when his final client quietly disappears into the remote Idaho wilderness, Walt discovers that his previously unwavering moral compass no longer points the way. With profound humanity and subtlety, A GREAT WILDERNESS navigates complex moral terrain, exploring the shifting motives and inconstant strength of our personal convictions.  Written by Samuel D. Hunter, directed by Victoria Blake, weekends Jan. 17 – Feb. 2, 2025.
