Looking for a great night out? How about dinner and theater...

Founded in 1968, Berkeley Repertory Theatre has established itself as one of this country’s top-ranking professional resident theatre companies, known for its consistently high-quality productions. Winner of the 1997 Tony Award for Outstanding Regional Theatre, its national reputation draws theatre artists from around the country to work on a variety of productions from September through July. The season consists of seven productions of the finest classic, contemporary and new plays.

In four decades, nearly four million people have enjoyed 300 shows at Berkeley Rep, including more than 40 world premiers. The Theatre now welcomes an annual audience of 180,000, and hosts dozens of community groups. In the last year, four shows seen at Berkeley Rep have gone on to New York. Now, a series of gifted guests arrive with amazing stage presents for Berkeley Rep's 40th birthday.

This auction item includes two (2) tickets to a Berkeley Rep 2007-08 Season Production. It also includes a $60 gift certificate to dine at the fabulous Lalime's Restaurant in Berkeley.

Michael Bauer of the San Francisco Chronicle puts it best. "One of the most uplifting moments for a restaurant critic is to experience a place like Lalime's reinvent itself. This 15-year- old restaurant became known for its reasonable fixed-price menus, detailed in monthly newsletters. Now under chef Steve Jaramillo, the Berkeley restaurant has implemented a more traditional menu, and the Mediterranean-inspired cuisine is better than ever. With a menu that changes every three weeks or so, the restaurant has been discovered by a whole new generation of diners."

Lalime's interior and service are understated and warm. In fact both elements seem so comfortable they fade into the background and let the food star.

Clearly the purpose of Lalime's isn't flash, it's good food. And when followed by a spectacular production at the Berkeley Rep, this will be a night out to remember...
