This year we're celebrating Susan Medak's 20th anniversary as Berkeley Rep's managing director.

We asked some prominent community leaders to toast and roast her in honor of her remarkable tenure at the Theatre. This short video includes loving and humorous commentary from her partner in crime, Artistic Director Tony Taccone, as well as legendary performer Rita Moreno, renowned producer Tom Hulce, local politicians like Tom Bates and Loni Hancock, and philanthropists such as Marjorie Randolph of Walt Disney Studios and Bernard Beaudraux of Target® Corporation.
