The Willits Community Theatre is located 125 miles north of San Francisco. Travel across the Golden Gate Bridge from San Francisco, and Willits is the first stoplight. Honest! From humble beginnings in 1977, the theater has developed into a well-established organization, presenting live theater throughout the year.

Primarily a volunteer organization, Willits Community Theatre was incorporated in 1979. In 1988, it hired its first Artistic Director, Linda Palmer, a professional actor/dancer/director who is best remembered for her performance (as the ex-wife) in Bob Fosse's 1979 film All That Jazz.

Subsequent artistic directors have included screenwriter/director Lanny Cotler (films: The Earthling, 1981, as writer, and Heartwood, 1996, as writer and director) and John LeFan, long a mainstay with San Francisco's Artaud Theatre Group. Most recently, the legendary Mike A'Dair held this position for many productive years. Now, an Artistic Direction Committee of six persons selects each season for the Willits Community Theatre. WCT Producer is Patricia Willis.
