City Lights Theater

City Lights Theater is located in the heart of downtown San Jose’s SoFA Entertainment District. Many fine dining establishments, such as the four-star French restaurant Emile’s, are within easy walking distance. City-operated parking structures, many of which are free after 6 p.m. and on weekends, are also nearby. This theater is home to City Lights Theater Company, a nonprofit organization which produces a season of six plays per year in this intimate 108-seat venue.
