The Oakland native started taking acting classes at Cal Shakes as a child when her mother worked summers as the company’s house manager.

LAS VEGAS, NEVADA – APRIL 25: Zendaya speaks onstage as she promotes the upcoming film “Dune: Part Two” during the Warner Bros. Pictures Studio presentation during CinemaCon, the official convention of the National Association of Theatre Owners, at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace on April 25, 2023 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

For a half century, Cal Shakes has been known for its outdoor summer season of plays by Shakespeare and other artists. Plays are performed under the night sky in the Bruns Amphitheater, in a picturesque valley surrounded by the Orinda hills. Zendaya gravitated towards Cal Shakes as a child because her mother, an Oakland elementary school teacher, worked there for 12 summers as a house manager. Zendaya helped seat patrons, sold fundraising tickets and watched plays from the back of the theater. A future student at the Oakland School for the Arts, Zendaya also began taking acting classes at Cal Shakes as she learned to overcome her shyness and to develop confidence as a performer.
