Food will be delivered by costumed actors as we create the new concept of "Dinner and a Show to GO!" Our menu will be California coastal cuisine, serving lunch and dinner with breakfast options on weekends.

Want to support Paper Wing in these uncertain times? We now have a GoFundMe page which is helping pay our theater's bills and maintenance and allowing us to distribute donations to our actors and crew in need.
