About
The Marsh Berkeley presents Marga Gomez’s “Spanish Stew,” the acclaimed writer/performer’s 15th solo work. The comedy follows Gomez’s youth when, after being abruptly outed by her flamboyant mother, young Marga flees her parents in Manhattan and finds her forever home in San Francisco. “Spanish Stew” overflows with warmth, wit and revelations over families of origin and the Bay Area Queer, punk and radical families we choose.

The Marsh is known as "a breeding ground for new performance." It was launched in 1989 by Founder and Artistic Director Stephanie Weisman with two venues now in San Francisco and Berkeley. A leading outlet for solo performers, The Marsh's specialty has been hailed by the San Francisco Chronicle as "solo performances that celebrate the power of storytelling at its simplest and purest."
