About the Space

The Great Star Theater is a 450-seat historic live performance venue in the heart of San Francisco's Chinatown. Complete with a traditional proscenium stage, full stage lighting, 7.1 surround sound, an optional projection screen, green screen, fly rigging, and fast internet with 250mb/s up and down, this is the perfect venue for your film shoot, music video, conference, live stream, private screening, etc. Optionally we can provide bar service, emcees, technical staff, livestream and/or recording services, and anything you need to make your event a success. We are experienced event producers as well as venue operators, so we can be as involved or hands-off as you prefer. Built in 1925, the 450-seat Great Star Theater is the only remaining theater in San Francisco's Chinatown. Throughout the years it has hosted countless Chinese operas, international movies, local artists, and amazing musical, circus, and variety performers from the world over. We have recently remodeled with new seating, better lighting/sound, fly rigging for aerialists/circus, and beautiful brand new bathrooms. Come take a walkthrough and see for yourself, and we can answer any questions you may have!

Yes, I would book again.

Roger was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was very helpful throughout the entire booking journey and throughout our video shoot helping with the lighting, stage, etc. The theater is absolutely beautiful and I look forward to seeing a performance there myself!
