The Willows opened the same year my daughter was born, 1977. With the exception of closing from 2009 to 2010 it has been a Bay Area destination for quality musicals and plays for three and a half decades. I was a regular usher for the last decade and was so happy when it reopened. However on August 15, 2012, that all changed and some culture in Concord eight minutes from home flatlined. I'm sorry to see it go. When I usher in the city I get to bed around 1:30 a.m. The Willows was a small, intimate theater with fantastic sets, acting, singing and music. Michael ushered with me a few times. It wasn't his thing. I miss it. Very much.
