Palo Alto’s plans for community center may include permanent home for TheatreWorks

Palo Alto’s upgrades to the Cubberley Community Center may include a permanent home for TheatreWorks Silicon Valley.

The city is planning to upgrade the existing theater for continued use by local community groups while creating a second theater for TheatreWorks, founded in Palo Alto in 1970.

The proposed Cubberley arts project involves refurbishments to the center’s existing theater space. Renovations would include adding restrooms, expanding the lobby, upgrading accessibility and revitalizing its technical capabilities.
