“City National helps keep
my financial life in tune.”
So much of my life is always shifting; a different
city, a different piece of music, a different
ensemble. I need people who I can count on to
help keep my financial life on course so I can
focus on creating and sharing the “adventures” of
classical music. City National shares my passion
and is instrumental in helping me bring classical
music to audiences all over the world. They enjoy
being a part of what I do and love. That is the
essence of a successful relationship.
City National is The way up® for me.

Discounts: For information on discounted tickets for military, age 30 and
younger, and student/senior rush, visit calshakes.org/discounts.
20 for $20 Policy: We’ve set aside 20 $20 tickets for each performance this
season, making it easier for more people to enjoy theater. Simply call the Box

Terrace Seating: Chairs are pre-placed in all sections. If you’re seated in our

BRUNS AMPHITHEATER

Hours: Box office and grounds open two hours before performance time.
Come prepared for the outdoors: Blankets are available to the right of the
main Amphitheater entrance for a suggested $2 donation; please dress
warmly for cold nights and bring sunscreen and a hat for matinees. To keep
yellow jackets at bay, keep food covered whenever possible and promptly
dispose of trash and recyclables. We’ve also found fabric softener dryer
sheets work well to repel yellow jackets.
Take BART and our free shuttle: Cal Shakes provides free, wheelchair liftequipped shuttle service between the Orinda BART station and the Theater
beginning 2 hours prior to and at the end of each performance. The shuttle
runs approximately every 20 minutes; the final shuttle leaves the Orinda

is in the BART parking lot to the right of the station exit; after the show,
catch the shuttle on the Sue & George Bruns Plaza.
SHARON SIMPSON CENTER AMENITIES
Café by Classic Catering: Offering a wide selection of gourmet meals, wine,
beer, Peet’s coffee and tea, hot cocoa, and desserts, the café opens two
hours before the performance and at intermission. Catering is available for
groups (10+) and special events; call 925.939.9224.
Bar: In addition to beer and wine at the café, we are now serving handcrafted cocktails at our new bar located next to the café.
Gender-inclusive restrooms: Located to the left of the café. All are welcome
to use the restroom that best fits their identity or expression. Single-stall
portable restrooms are available in the Upper Grove.
First Aid: For assistance, please go to the House Management Office,
located inside to the left of the restrooms.
Emergency Phone: Since we ask all patrons to silence cell phones
during performances, you may leave the House Office phone number
(925.254.2395) as your contact number during a performance.
FOR THE ENJOYMENT OF ALL
Be respectful: Part of Cal Shakes’ mission is to inspire and cultivate diverse and
inclusive theater experiences. We reserve the right to ask patrons to leave.
Arrive on time: Latecomers will be seated at an appropriate interval at the
House Manager’s discretion.
Silence all electronic devices before the performance begins.
Recording: Do not take photos of the performance. The use of any type of
camera, video or audio recorder in the amphitheater is strictly prohibited. Such
devices may be confiscated at the House Manager’s discretion.
Keep the aisles clear during the performance.
Observe all signage including directional signage on the grounds. It is posted for
your safety.
Smoking/Vaping is restricted to the designated area on the plaza. Electronic
cigarettes fall under California’s comprehensive smoke-free laws and are now
banned in all the same places as traditional cigarettes.
Be scentsitive: Perfumes or scented lotions may cause discomfort to other
patrons and may attract yellow jackets. Please keep use to a minimum.
Picnicking: You’re welcome to enjoy food and beverages during the performance,
but please be courteous to others. Unwrap all items before the performance
begins or at intermission so as not to disturb your fellow patrons.
ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP
Our Land: The Bruns is located on the East Bay Municipal Utility District’s
watershed land. In agreeing to lease to the theater, EBMUD seeks to serve the
public with a community facility while preserving the watershed with minimal
disruption to the pastoral surroundings.
Recycling: Please use the labeled recycling bins to discard glass, aluminum,
plastic, and paper; a portion of the proceeds from the value of our recycled
materials is donated to area schools.
Solar: Cal Shakes is one of the largest solar-powered outdoor professional
theaters in the country. The 144 260-watt panels and four 9000-watt inverters
of our Turn Key 37.4 kilowatt DC solar electric system are designed to supply up
to 98% of the power needs to the Bruns Amphitheater.
Living Roof: Like much of the Bruns Amphitheater grounds, the Sharon
Simpson Center’s living roof boasts native, drought-resistant plants.

Make your next
international trip
even more perfect.
Customers save when purchasing foreign currency
before they travel.
If you’re a frequent traveler — or just take a few international trips now and then — you can gain a big benefit by opening a
checking account with Wells Fargo.
As a Wells Fargo checking or savings account holder, you’re not charged a service fee when you purchase foreign currency
(delivery charges may apply for certain currency orders). That means you can pack your wallet with pesos, euros, and yen —
in fact, currency for over 100 countries — before you travel. You’ll enjoy one-stop Wells Fargo convenience and competitive
exchange rates, updated daily.
Most important, you’ll arrive at your destination ready for fun. With local money in your pocket, you can easily pay for taxis,
tips, and meals without the hassle of exchanging currency.
So open a Wells Fargo checking account — and start enjoying more carefree vacations!
wellsfargo.com
Outside of the U.S., Wells Fargo does not have offices that provide services to retail or small
business customers. For assistance with personal accounts when traveling internationally, find
the number to call from outside the U.S. by visiting wellsfargo.com/help/international-accesscodes or visit us online at wellsfargo.com/resource_center/travel.
