American Conservatory Theater
(A.C.T.) brings another acclaimed international hit to the Bay Area
with the U.S. premiere of The Virtual Stage and Electric Company
Theatre's production of Jean-Paul Sartre's No Exit. Adapted from the
French by Paul Bowles and conceived and directed by Kim Collier, this
production arrives fresh from sold-out performances across Canada.
When a mysterious valet ushers three people into a shabby hotel room,
they soon discover that hell isn't fire and brimstone at all-it's

'live film' takes place before your eyes. Described as 'epic,
voyeuristic, theater-as-film staging . . . spectacularly brilliant' by
the Calgary Herald and 'diabolically inventive . . . a riveting
theatrical event' by the Georgia Straight (Vancouver), No Exit plays
April 7-May 1, 2011, at the American Conservatory Theater (415 Geary
