For six decades now, the San Francisco Mime Troupe has been putting on free political theater performances around the Bay Area and California. They’re keeping with tradition, performing two local shows this week of their newest political production, Treasure Island. Based on the Robert Louis Stevenson novel, it explores the real-life development of the Bay’s Treasure Island. Featuring Hawkins, Long John Silver and all the swashbuckling bribery you could hope for, it’s a lambasting of developers. Register in advance! 315 West 14th Street in Davis, sfmt.org.
