The city of Palo Alto, which intends to ask voters in November for money to acquire and rebuild Cubberley Community Center, will include an auditorium for TheatreWorks in the project. Plans call for renovating the existing theatre for continued use by a variety of local community groups while building a second theater for TheatreWorks. TheatreWorks anticipates using part of a 40,000-square-foot performing arts center, which would represent 16% of the completed 247,000 square foot project. Funds from a tax measure might also help pay for renovations at the community center located at 4000 Middlefield Road. TheatreWorks has presented productions at Palo Alto’s Lucie Stern Theatre since the company’s inception in 1970, and at the Mountain View Center for the Performing Arts since that space opened in 1991.
