About us

The Hip E Store is a celebration of the 60s Summer of Love, brought to you by Antenna Theater, a non-profit arts organization based in the California Bay Area.

All artwork found in the Hip E Store is created by Chris Hardman, founder and artistic director of Antenna Theater.

Chris HardmanSince 1980 Antenna Theater has been producing unique theatrical events and adventures most often in and around San Francisco. Our most recent creation is the Magic Bus, yes, a truly Magic Bus filled with mini video projectors, an awesome sound system and all sorts of theatrical dramatics. Check out the Magic Bus and watch this 3 minute documentary on the Magic Bus, right here:   We are sorry to announce that the MAGIC BUS is no longer in service. 

So, the Magic Bus drives around the city of San Francisco and at times it's a mobile movie theater and then the curtains rise and voila! we're in another part of the city- North Beach or Haight Ashbury! Did I mention that the subject of the Magic Bus is the '60s... the Summer of LOVE... in San Francisco?
