"Beginning in 1913 Mount Tamalpais had hosted theatrical performances known as Mountain Plays in a natural amphitheatre setting 2000' above sea level. In the first two decades the performances were accessed by hiking or riding the winding Mount Tamalpais and Muir Woods Railway.[1] The railway was led by businessman Sidney B. Cushing, and in 1933 the Civilian Conservation Corps began construction of a 4,000 seat stone amphitheater that was named the Sidney B. Cushing Memorial Amphitheatre in his honor.[2][3] The amphitheatre was constructed by the corps using massive serpentine rocks.[1] In 1967 the venue hosted the two day Fantasy Fair and Magic Mountain Music Festival, widely considered the first outdoor rock festival ever during of the Summer of Love.[4] It hosts theatrical productions each year in the spring."
