The Making of a Diva

Saturday, August 8, 2026 (9:00 PM - 11:00 PM) (PDT)

Description

Presented by Five Finger Disco & Detour Productions

The road to becoming a diva is paved with love and loss. Ecstasy and anger. Triumphant wins and falls from grace. And lots of magical moments on the dancefloor of a nightclub. This is where we tell our stories.

The Making of a Diva is a small-scale, collaborative project designed to support Bay Area performers in developing new, character-driven work in an immersive format. This piece aims to blur the lines of queer dance party and performance art to create an engaging evening-length experience.

This show is age-restricted to 21+ due to taking place inside a bar.

This production has achieved three TBA Highlights! 

The Going Green Achievement. This production has a reduced environmental impact to help save our beautiful planet!

 

The Homegrown Achievement. This production is creating jobs and creative opportunities right here in the Bay Area.

The Reflection Achievement. The Bay Area is beautifully diverse and so is this production.

What are TBA Highlights? We're honoring incredible productions across the Bay that are driving the future of theatre forward. The Highlights program uplifts specific shows that have met the important benchmarks required to earn one (or more) of our four achievements: Homegrown Achievement, Going Green Achievement, Reflection Achievement, and Open Doors Achievement. When you see one of these badges you can expect to see theatre produced, rehearsed, and performed according to these values.


This production is supported by the CA$H Theatre Grant Program.

The CA$H Theatre Grant Program — short for Creative Assistance for the Small (Organization) and Hungry (Artist) — provides vital financial support to individual theatre artists and small theatre companies in the San Francisco Bay Area. Founded in 1999, these grants support a range of creative projects artists and companies need, from capacity-building projects to fully-produced public performances.
