Diversionary Theatre was founded in 1986 to provide quality theatre for the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender communities. The mission of the theatre is to produce plays with gay, lesbian and bisexual themes that portray characters in their complexity and diversity both historically and contemporarily. Diversionary Theatre is recognized as one of San Diego's best theaters. Though its history has been long and varied, it is one of the most vibrant showcases of theatrical talent in the city. Over the last four years the theater has elevated its productions and extended its season. The response has been remarkable, as its productions regularly receive "Critic's Choice", "Don't miss it" reviews, and multiple awards. Diversionary's recent productions have included the world premieres of the commissioned work Dear Harvey and The Daddy Machine, plus Bent, The Little Dog Laughed, No Exit, Yank! A New Musical, Corpus Christi, Bluebonnet Court, Harvey Fierstein's Torch Song Trilogy, The Busy World is Hushed and The Break Up Notebook: The Lesbian Musical. The goal of the theatre is to continue telling the story of the LGBT community, while providing a home and venue for the remarkable talents of the San Diego's theater professionals. Events:
