                           HON. ANNA G. ESHOO

                             of california

                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, March 21, 1994

  Ms. ESHOO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor TheatreWorks on the 
occasion of it being presented with the 1994 Tall Tree Outstanding 
Organization Award by the Palo Alto Chamber of Commerce.
  TheatreWorks is the San Francisco Peninsula's largest and most 
critically acclaimed performing arts organization. Founded in 1970 by 
Artistic Director Robert Kelly, the company serves over 90,000 
theatergoers throughout the bay area during its season of 12 plays and 
musicals. It is a theater of all ages and races, unique in its 
dedication to multi-culturalism. TheatreWorks is a major cultural asset 
to the Palo Alto community and contributes in many ways. It encourages 
community participation, creates special opportunities for groups such 
as seniors and children, trains artists, and forges partnerships with 
school and other organizations.
  Mr. Speaker, TheatreWorks is an outstanding organization and has made 
a substantial contribution to the lasting enhancement of Palo Alto. I 
ask my colleagues to join me in saluting it for receiving the coveted 
1994 Tall Tree Outstanding Organization Award.
