The San Jose Repertory Theatre closed its curtain for good last month, citing financial woes. The closure of the 34-year-old company has prompted some soul-searching in Silicon Valley over local support for arts organizations. We discuss the future of the arts in the South Bay.

Guests:

Kerry Adams-Hapner, director of cultural affairs for the City of San Jose

Robert Kelley, founder and artistic director of TheatreWorks, a theatre based in Palo Alto and Mountain View

Mike Ryan, artistic director of Santa Cruz Shakespeare who recently performed in "Game On" at San Jose Repertory Theater
