A Man of No Importance
Step into 1960s Dublin, where an amateur theater group and its passionate leader attempt to bring Oscar Wilde’s Salome to life against all odds. A Noise Within presents A Man of No Importance, an evocative, intimate musical gem from the Tony Award-winning team behind Ragtime: composer Stephen Flaherty, lyricist Lynn Ahrens, and bookwriter Terrence McNally. With ANW co-artistic director Julia Rodriguez-Elliott at the helm alongside music director Rod Bagheri, A Man of No Importance opens May 10 for a four-week run through June 1. Previews begin May 4.
Bus conductor Alfie Byrne has two joys in life: the poetry of Oscar Wilde and staging amateur productions with his local theater troupe, the St. Imelda Players. But when he opts to stage a production of Salome, this man of seemingly no importance must confront religious objections while facing the forces of bigotry and shame over a love “that dare not speak its name.” Inspired by a 1994 film starring Albert Finney, A Man of No Importance beautifully combines t…

IAMA Theatre Company closes its 17th season with a workshop production of the dark comedy “Trauma Play” by Abigail Miller. This new work will be directed by Co-Artistic Director of Ammunition Theatre Company Diana Wyenn, director, co-divisor, and dramaturg of the critically acclaimed solo show “Kristina Wong for Public Office.” In “Trauma Play,” when playwright Britt Benson gets buzzy reviews for the premiere of her new play, her life begins to spiral out of control. As Benson finds her childhood trauma suddenly scrutinized in the public eye, she slips into a dizzying morass of self-doubt that is heightened by the relentless media onslaught. Following a successful staged reading at IAMA’s 2023 New Works Festival, “Trauma Play” will have a workshop production which gives audiences the opportunity to be an integral part of the playmaking process, providing valuable and essential feedback with their reactions each night for the creative team to bring back into rehearsal the next day with the actors.

Victims in search of justice. Latino Theater Company brings Chicago’s Water People Theater back to Los Angeles for a three-week run of The Delicate Tears of the Waning Moon following the show’s success as part of last season’s Encuentro theater festival. Written by acclaimed Venezuelan playwright, actress and human rights advocate Rebeca Alemán and directed by Iraida Tapias, the Jeff Award-nominated drama opens May 3 at The Los Angeles Theatre Center in downtown Los Angeles. Performances continue through May 25, with two low-priced previews taking place on May 1 and May 2. All performances feature Spanish supertitles.
A taut psychological drama, The Delicate Tears of the Waning Moon is set in 2019 somewhere in Latin America. Somewhere in a country immersed in violence and corruption, a world where cruelty is habit, impunity is routine, liberty is utopian and revealing the truth poses the greatest danger of all. After surviving a vicious attack that left her in a coma, Paulina, a human rights journalist and…

A play. A memoir. A rant. Written by celebrated playwright and pioneer of Hip-Hop theater Rickérby Hinds and directed by Daphnie Sicre, a champion and specialist in Afro-Latiné theater, the world premiere of The Last Play by Rickérby Hinds opens April 26 at The Los Angeles Theatre Center in downtown Los Angeles. Performances continue through May 25, with six low-priced previews taking place April 17 through April 25.
Rickérby Hinds has the unique ability to challenge conventional notions of the stage while taking advantage of its history and traditions. In this Latino Theater Company-commissioned, meta-theatrical comedy that was developed in the company’s Circle of Imaginistas playwriting group, an Afro-Latino playwright, blocked by the challenge of writing what he believes will be his final play, summons characters from some of his previous plays for inspiration — only to confront chaos, comedy, and a deeper understanding of his identity and the true meaning of success.

Step into 1960s Dublin, where an amateur theater group and its passionate leader attempt to bring Oscar Wilde’s Salome to life against all odds. A Noise Within presents A Man of No Importance, an evocative, intimate musical gem from the Tony Award-winning team behind Ragtime: composer Stephen Flaherty, lyricist Lynn Ahrens, and bookwriter Terrence McNally. With ANW co-artistic director Julia Rodriguez-Elliott at the helm alongside music director Rod Bagheri, A Man of No Importance opens May 10 for a four-week run through June 1. Previews begin May 4.
Bus conductor Alfie Byrne has two joys in life: the poetry of Oscar Wilde and staging amateur productions with his local theater troupe, the St. Imelda Players. But when he opts to stage a production of Salome, this man of seemingly no importance must confront religious objections while facing the forces of bigotry and shame over a love “that dare not speak its name.” Inspired by a 1994 film starring Albert Finney, A Man of No Importance beautifully combines t…

IAMA Theatre Company closes its 17th season with a workshop production of the dark comedy “Trauma Play” by Abigail Miller. This new work will be directed by Co-Artistic Director of Ammunition Theatre Company Diana Wyenn, director, co-divisor, and dramaturg of the critically acclaimed solo show “Kristina Wong for Public Office.” In “Trauma Play,” when playwright Britt Benson gets buzzy reviews for the premiere of her new play, her life begins to spiral out of control. As Benson finds her childhood trauma suddenly scrutinized in the public eye, she slips into a dizzying morass of self-doubt that is heightened by the relentless media onslaught. Following a successful staged reading at IAMA’s 2023 New Works Festival, “Trauma Play” will have a workshop production which gives audiences the opportunity to be an integral part of the playmaking process, providing valuable and essential feedback with their reactions each night for the creative team to bring back into rehearsal the next day with the actors.

Renowned for their celebrated collaboration on Tempest Redux (winner of Stage Raw’s Production of the Year and Broadway World’s Production of the Decade for L.A. Regional Theater awards), Odyssey Theatre Ensemble, New American Theatre and Not Man Apart–Physical Theatre Ensemble reunite to present the latest iteration in adapter, director and choreographer John Farmanesh-Bocca’s acclaimed Redux series. Lear Redux: A Quantum Fantasia, inspired by William Shakespeare’s King Lear, opens May 24 at the Odyssey Theatre, where performances continue through July 13. Two low-priced previews take place on May 22 and May 23.
In this boldly evocative, perpetually surprising reconstruction of the Bard’s powerful drama, Jack Stehlin (DEA Captain Roy Till on Showtime’s Weeds) who previously starred in both Titus Redux at the Kirk Douglas and Tempest Redux at the Odyssey, inhabits the role of an aging actor whose last days strangely parallel those of Shakespeare’s tragic king.

French director Maurice Attias, in residence at the Odyssey Theatre, brings a slice of French culture to L.A. with the West Coast premiere of Clôture de l’amour (Love’s End) by celebrated French playwright Pascal Rambert. Performances, in an English translation by Jim Fletcher and Kate Moran, run May 10 through June 15 at the Odyssey’s three-theater venue in West Los Angeles, with two low-priced previews May 8 and May 9.
Award-winning Australian actor Beejan Land, a member of France’s Theatre du Soleil who appeared on Broadway in The Kite Runner, and Ann Sonneville, recently seen in Last Summer at Bluefish Cove at the Fountain Theatre, star in Rambert’s riveting and bitingly funny look at the dissolution of a marriage. The audience is immediately hooked, drawn irrevocably into the world of a husband and wife whose deep love for one another has somehow, inexplicably come to an end. The language is violent, cutting and darkly comic, a torrential outpouring that offers a deeply insightful examination of love,…

Tasty Little Rabbit is a true story of intrigue and artists. Written by Tom Jacobson and directed by George Bamber, the story is set during the 1936 Fascist Italian investigation of pornography charges in Taormina, Sicily. This artistic prosecution uncovers a much darker secret of an 1890s love triangle involving poet Sebastian Melmoth, photographer Wilhelm Von Gloeden and an 18-year-old Sicilian boy. What might be discovered, and sacrificed, to protect secrets of the heart?
“Benito Mussolini used moral cleansing as a means to gain control of the people in Italy. Tasty Little Rabbit focuses on one such persecution of 1890s photographer Baron Wilhelm von Gloeden,” says director George Bamber. “He was the Gilded Age’s ultimate ‘influencer.’ His photographs of the locals on the Sicilian coast made the village of Taormina a required stop on the grand tour, particularly for prominent men attracted to beautiful male youth. What drew me to the play, what made it essential for me to direct, is Tom’s unpara…

Victims in search of justice. Latino Theater Company brings Chicago’s Water People Theater back to Los Angeles for a three-week run of The Delicate Tears of the Waning Moon following the show’s success as part of last season’s Encuentro theater festival. Written by acclaimed Venezuelan playwright, actress and human rights advocate Rebeca Alemán and directed by Iraida Tapias, the Jeff Award-nominated drama opens May 3 at The Los Angeles Theatre Center in downtown Los Angeles. Performances continue through May 25, with two low-priced previews taking place on May 1 and May 2. All performances feature Spanish supertitles.
A taut psychological drama, The Delicate Tears of the Waning Moon is set in 2019 somewhere in Latin America. Somewhere in a country immersed in violence and corruption, a world where cruelty is habit, impunity is routine, liberty is utopian and revealing the truth poses the greatest danger of all. After surviving a vicious attack that left her in a coma, Paulina, a human rights journalist and…

A play. A memoir. A rant. Written by celebrated playwright and pioneer of Hip-Hop theater Rickérby Hinds and directed by Daphnie Sicre, a champion and specialist in Afro-Latiné theater, the world premiere of The Last Play by Rickérby Hinds opens April 26 at The Los Angeles Theatre Center in downtown Los Angeles. Performances continue through May 25, with six low-priced previews taking place April 17 through April 25.
Rickérby Hinds has the unique ability to challenge conventional notions of the stage while taking advantage of its history and traditions. In this Latino Theater Company-commissioned, meta-theatrical comedy that was developed in the company’s Circle of Imaginistas playwriting group, an Afro-Latino playwright, blocked by the challenge of writing what he believes will be his final play, summons characters from some of his previous plays for inspiration — only to confront chaos, comedy, and a deeper understanding of his identity and the true meaning of success.

BEYOND THE STREETS proudly presents PINK CLOUD, the triumphant LA debut of graffiti icon GREY (Jonas Melvin). A trailblazer of San Francisco’s golden graffiti era, GREY revolutionized the art form with his bold, punchy style, influencing generations.

Now sober, GREY reflects on his journey through vibrant installations, paintings, and sculptures that blend his struggles with a message of hope. The show also features works by Alexis Ross, Alicia McCarthy, Angel Castro, Barry McGee, Cheryl Dunn, Dan Murphy, Dave Schubert, Elberto Muller, GKAE, Mark Cross, MERCH, Stephen Powers, Timothy Curtis, Todd James, and more.

Step into 1960s Dublin, where an amateur theater group and its passionate leader attempt to bring Oscar Wilde’s Salome to life against all odds. A Noise Within presents A Man of No Importance, an evocative, intimate musical gem from the Tony Award-winning team behind Ragtime: composer Stephen Flaherty, lyricist Lynn Ahrens, and bookwriter Terrence McNally. With ANW co-artistic director Julia Rodriguez-Elliott at the helm alongside music director Rod Bagheri, A Man of No Importance opens May 10 for a four-week run through June 1. Previews begin May 4.
Bus conductor Alfie Byrne has two joys in life: the poetry of Oscar Wilde and staging amateur productions with his local theater troupe, the St. Imelda Players. But when he opts to stage a production of Salome, this man of seemingly no importance must confront religious objections while facing the forces of bigotry and shame over a love “that dare not speak its name.” Inspired by a 1994 film starring Albert Finney, A Man of No Importance beautifully combines t…

IAMA Theatre Company closes its 17th season with a workshop production of the dark comedy “Trauma Play” by Abigail Miller. This new work will be directed by Co-Artistic Director of Ammunition Theatre Company Diana Wyenn, director, co-divisor, and dramaturg of the critically acclaimed solo show “Kristina Wong for Public Office.” In “Trauma Play,” when playwright Britt Benson gets buzzy reviews for the premiere of her new play, her life begins to spiral out of control. As Benson finds her childhood trauma suddenly scrutinized in the public eye, she slips into a dizzying morass of self-doubt that is heightened by the relentless media onslaught. Following a successful staged reading at IAMA’s 2023 New Works Festival, “Trauma Play” will have a workshop production which gives audiences the opportunity to be an integral part of the playmaking process, providing valuable and essential feedback with their reactions each night for the creative team to bring back into rehearsal the next day with the actors.

In this boldly evocative, perpetually surprising reconstruction of the Bard’s powerful drama, Jack Stehlin (DEA Captain Roy Till on Showtime’s Weeds) who previously starred in both Titus Redux at the Kirk Douglas and Tempest Redux at the Odyssey, inhabits the role of an aging actor whose last days strangely parallel those of Shakespeare’s tragic king.

French director Maurice Attias, in residence at the Odyssey Theatre, brings a slice of French culture to L.A. with the West Coast premiere of Clôture de l’amour (Love’s End) by celebrated French playwright Pascal Rambert. Performances, in an English translation by Jim Fletcher and Kate Moran, run May 10 through June 15 at the Odyssey’s three-theater venue in West Los Angeles, with two low-priced previews May 8 and May 9.
Award-winning Australian actor Beejan Land, a member of France’s Theatre du Soleil who appeared on Broadway in The Kite Runner, and Ann Sonneville, recently seen in Last Summer at Bluefish Cove at the Fountain Theatre, star in Rambert’s riveting and bitingly funny look at the dissolution of a marriage. The audience is immediately hooked, drawn irrevocably into the world of a husband and wife whose deep love for one another has somehow, inexplicably come to an end. The language is violent, cutting and darkly comic, a torrential outpouring that offers a deeply insightful examination of love,…

Tasty Little Rabbit is a true story of intrigue and artists. Written by Tom Jacobson and directed by George Bamber, the story is set during the 1936 Fascist Italian investigation of pornography charges in Taormina, Sicily. This artistic prosecution uncovers a much darker secret of an 1890s love triangle involving poet Sebastian Melmoth, photographer Wilhelm Von Gloeden and an 18-year-old Sicilian boy. What might be discovered, and sacrificed, to protect secrets of the heart?
“Benito Mussolini used moral cleansing as a means to gain control of the people in Italy. Tasty Little Rabbit focuses on one such persecution of 1890s photographer Baron Wilhelm von Gloeden,” says director George Bamber. “He was the Gilded Age’s ultimate ‘influencer.’ His photographs of the locals on the Sicilian coast made the village of Taormina a required stop on the grand tour, particularly for prominent men attracted to beautiful male youth. What drew me to the play, what made it essential for me to direct, is Tom’s unpara…

Victims in search of justice. Latino Theater Company brings Chicago’s Water People Theater back to Los Angeles for a three-week run of The Delicate Tears of the Waning Moon following the show’s success as part of last season’s Encuentro theater festival.

Performances continue through May 25, with two low-priced previews taking place on May 1 and May 2. All performances feature Spanish supertitles.
A taut psychological drama, The Delicate Tears of the Waning Moon is set in 2019 somewhere in Latin America.

Written by celebrated playwright and pioneer of Hip-Hop theater Rickérby Hinds and directed by Daphnie Sicre, a champion and specialist in Afro-Latiné theater, the world premiere of The Last Play by Rickérby Hinds opens April 26 at The Los Angeles Theatre Center in downtown Los Angeles. Performances continue through May 25, with six low-priced previews taking place April 17 through April 25.
Rickérby Hinds has the unique ability to challenge conventional notions of the stage while taking advantage of its history and traditions. In this Latino Theater Company-commissioned, meta-theatrical comedy that was developed in the company’s Circle of Imaginistas playwriting group, an Afro-Latino playwright, blocked by the challenge of writing what he believes will be his final play, summons characters from some of his previous plays for inspiration — only to confront chaos, comedy, and a deeper understanding of his identity and the true meaning of success.

The excavations at the late prehistoric site of Shimao in northern Shaanxi (ca. 2200-1800 BCE) have brought to light a number of large carved-stone reliefs showing human and animal motifs. Their style and execution show striking parallels with decoration of the famous bronzes from the Shang dynasty (ca. 1500-1046 BCE), forcing us to reconsider previous ideas about the origins and cultural or…

Tasty Little Rabbit is a true story of intrigue and artists. Written by Tom Jacobson and directed by George Bamber, the story is set during the 1936 Fascist Italian investigation of pornography charges in Taormina, Sicily. This artistic prosecution uncovers a much darker secret of an 1890s love triangle involving poet Sebastian Melmoth, photographer Wilhelm Von Gloeden and an 18-year-old Sicilian boy. What might be discovered, and sacrificed, to protect secrets of the heart?
“Benito Mussolini used moral cleansing as a means to gain control of the people in Italy. Tasty Little Rabbit focuses on one such persecution of 1890s photographer Baron Wilhelm von Gloeden,” says director George Bamber. “He was the Gilded Age’s ultimate ‘influencer.’ His photographs of the locals on the Sicilian coast made the village of Taormina a required stop on the grand tour, particularly for prominent men attracted to beautiful male youth. What drew me to the play, what made it essential for me to direct, is Tom’s unparal…

Brought to you by Mind Twist Comedy, Teachers Gone Bad showcases a killer lineup of educators-turned-comedians. Whether they’re moonlighting between grading papers or crushing it full-time on the comedy circuit, these performers bring schoolyard absurdity and adult chaos together on stage.
And no, this is not kid-friendly.
Expect brutally funny tales of embarrassing classroom moments, school politics, and staff room drama. But it doesn’t stop there—we go deep into the hilarious truths of family, marriage, parenthood, and life itself. Nearly every Teachers Gone Bad show has been sold out—teachers show up for one reason: to hear the jokes they wish they could say out loud on campus. With former teachers leading the charge, it’s a full-on catharsis, no punches pulled, and absolutely NO FEAR of HR. Because, honestly, what are they going to do? Fire us twice?
If you're ready for a night of unapologetic, unfiltered, and downright wicked comedy, Teachers Gone Bad is the show you didn’t know you needed.

Step into 1960s Dublin, where an amateur theater group and its passionate leader attempt to bring Oscar Wilde’s Salome to life against all odds. A Noise Within presents A Man of No Importance, an evocative, intimate musical gem from the Tony Award-winning team behind Ragtime: composer Stephen Flaherty, lyricist Lynn Ahrens, and bookwriter Terrence McNally. With ANW co-artistic director Julia Rodriguez-Elliott at the helm alongside music director Rod Bagheri, A Man of No Importance opens May 10 for a four-week run through June 1. Previews begin May 4.
Bus conductor Alfie Byrne has two joys in life: the poetry of Oscar Wilde and staging amateur productions with his local theater troupe, the St. Imelda Players. But when he opts to stage a production of Salome, this man of seemingly no importance must confront religious objections while facing the forces of bigotry and shame over a love “that dare not speak its name.” Inspired by a 1994 film starring Albert Finney, A Man of No Importance beautifully combines t…

IAMA Theatre Company closes its 17th season with a workshop production of the dark comedy “Trauma Play” by Abigail Miller. This new work will be directed by Co-Artistic Director of Ammunition Theatre Company Diana Wyenn, director, co-divisor, and dramaturg of the critically acclaimed solo show “Kristina Wong for Public Office.” In “Trauma Play,” when playwright Britt Benson gets buzzy reviews for the premiere of her new play, her life begins to spiral out of control. As Benson finds her childhood trauma suddenly scrutinized in the public eye, she slips into a dizzying morass of self-doubt that is heightened by the relentless media onslaught. Following a successful staged reading at IAMA’s 2023 New Works Festival, “Trauma Play” will have a workshop production which gives audiences the opportunity to be an integral part of the playmaking process, providing valuable and essential feedback with their reactions each night for the creative team to bring back into rehearsal the next day with the actors.

In this boldly evocative, perpetually surprising reconstruction of the Bard’s powerful drama, Jack Stehlin (DEA Captain Roy Till on Showtime’s Weeds) who previously starred in both Titus Redux at the Kirk Douglas and Tempest Redux at the Odyssey, inhabits the role of an aging actor whose last days strangely parallel those of Shakespeare’s tragic king.

French director Maurice Attias, in residence at the Odyssey Theatre, brings a slice of French culture to L.A. with the West Coast premiere of Clôture de l’amour (Love’s End) by celebrated French playwright Pascal Rambert. Performances, in an English translation by Jim Fletcher and Kate Moran, run May 10 through June 15 at the Odyssey’s three-theater venue in West Los Angeles, with two low-priced previews May 8 and May 9.
Award-winning Australian actor Beejan Land, a member of France’s Theatre du Soleil who appeared on Broadway in The Kite Runner, and Ann Sonneville, recently seen in Last Summer at Bluefish Cove at the Fountain Theatre, star in Rambert’s riveting and bitingly funny look at the dissolution of a marriage. The audience is immediately hooked, drawn irrevocably into the world of a husband and wife whose deep love for one another has somehow, inexplicably come to an end. The language is violent, cutting and darkly comic, a torrential outpouring that offers a deeply insightful examination of love,…

Victims in search of justice. Latino Theater Company brings Chicago’s Water People Theater back to Los Angeles for a three-week run of The Delicate Tears of the Waning Moon following the show’s success as part of last season’s Encuentro theater festival. Written by acclaimed Venezuelan playwright, actress and human rights advocate Rebeca Alemán and directed by Iraida Tapias, the Jeff Award-nominated drama opens May 3 at The Los Angeles Theatre Center in downtown Los Angeles. Performances continue through May 25, with two low-priced previews taking place on May 1 and May 2. All performances feature Spanish supertitles.
A taut psychological drama, The Delicate Tears of the Waning Moon is set in 2019 somewhere in Latin America.

Written by celebrated playwright and pioneer of Hip-Hop theater Rickérby Hinds and directed by Daphnie Sicre, a champion and specialist in Afro-Latiné theater, the world premiere of The Last Play by Rickérby Hinds opens April 26 at The Los Angeles Theatre Center in downtown Los Angeles. Performances continue through May 25, with six low-priced previews taking place April 17 through April 25.
Rickérby Hinds has the unique ability to challenge conventional notions of the stage while taking advantage of its history and traditions. In this Latino Theater Company-commissioned, meta-theatrical comedy that was developed in the company’s Circle of Imaginistas playwriting group, an Afro-Latino playwright, blocked by the challenge of writing what he believes will be his final play, summons characters from some of his previous plays for inspiration — only to confront chaos, comedy, and a deeper understanding of his identity and the true meaning of success.

On a night with a sudden electricity outage in Beirut, artist Tania El Khoury and her husband, historian Ziad Abu-Rish, promised each other to research the history of power outages in Lebanon. Born during the Lebanese Civil War, the artist had grown up with the understanding that the problem with electricity in Lebanon began during the war. The historian, however, recalled finding ███████████████ that announced scheduled electricity outages across Beirut. The two decided to research the history of power outages in Lebanon. The Search for Power, a performance that places the audience in an intimate gathering, delves into the intersection between public utilities infrastructure, people’s relationship to the state, and various popular mobilizations to shape both. In time, they reach as far back as the introduction of electricity in Beirut before █████████████████████. In space, they collect documents across…

Step into 1960s Dublin, where an amateur theater group and its passionate leader attempt to bring Oscar Wilde’s Salome to life against all odds. A Noise Within presents A Man of No Importance, an evocative, intimate musical gem from the Tony Award-winning team behind Ragtime: composer Stephen Flaherty, lyricist Lynn Ahrens, and bookwriter Terrence McNally. With ANW co-artistic director Julia Rodriguez-Elliott at the helm alongside music director Rod Bagheri, A Man of No Importance opens May 10 for a four-week run through June 1. Previews begin May 4.
Bus conductor Alfie Byrne has two joys in life: the poetry of Oscar Wilde and staging amateur productions with his local theater troupe, the St. Imelda Players. But when he opts to stage a production of Salome, this man of seemingly no importance must confront religious objections while facing the forces of bigotry and shame over a love “that dare not speak its name.” Inspired by a 1994 film starring Albert Finney, A Man of No Importance beautifully combines t…

IAMA Theatre Company closes its 17th season with a workshop production of the dark comedy “Trauma Play” by Abigail Miller. This new work will be directed by Co-Artistic Director of Ammunition Theatre Company Diana Wyenn, director, co-divisor, and dramaturg of the critically acclaimed solo show “Kristina Wong for Public Office.” In “Trauma Play,” when playwright Britt Benson gets buzzy reviews for the premiere of her new play, her life begins to spiral out of control. As Benson finds her childhood trauma suddenly scrutinized in the public eye, she slips into a dizzying morass of self-doubt that is heightened by the relentless media onslaught. Following a successful staged reading at IAMA’s 2023 New Works Festival, “Trauma Play” will have a workshop production which gives audiences the opportunity to be an integral part of the playmaking process, providing valuable and essential feedback with their reactions each night for the creative team to bring back into rehearsal the next day with the actors.

Step into 1960s Dublin, where an amateur theater group and its passionate leader attempt to bring Oscar Wilde’s Salome to life against all odds. A Noise Within presents A Man of No Importance, an evocative, intimate musical gem from the Tony Award-winning team behind Ragtime: composer Stephen Flaherty, lyricist Lynn Ahrens, and bookwriter Terrence McNally. With ANW co-artistic director Julia Rodriguez-Elliott at the helm alongside music director Rod Bagheri, A Man of No Importance opens May 10 for a four-week run through June 1. Previews begin May 4.
Bus conductor Alfie Byrne has two joys in life: the poetry of Oscar Wilde and staging amateur productions with his local theater troupe, the St. Imelda Players. But when he opts to stage a production of Salome, this man of seemingly no importance must confront religious objections while facing the forces of bigotry and shame over a love “that dare not speak its name.” Inspired by a 1994 film starring Albert Finney, A Man of No Importance beautifully combines t…

IAMA Theatre Company closes its 17th season with a workshop production of the dark comedy “Trauma Play” by Abigail Miller. This new work will be directed by Co-Artistic Director of Ammunition Theatre Company Diana Wyenn, director, co-divisor, and dramaturg of the critically acclaimed solo show “Kristina Wong for Public Office.” In “Trauma Play,” when playwright Britt Benson gets buzzy reviews for the premiere of her new play, her life begins to spiral out of control. As Benson finds her childhood trauma suddenly scrutinized in the public eye, she slips into a dizzying morass of self-doubt that is heightened by the relentless media onslaught. Following a successful staged reading at IAMA’s 2023 New Works Festival, “Trauma Play” will have a workshop production which gives audiences the opportunity to be an integral part of the playmaking process, providing valuable and essential feedback with their reactions each night for the creative team to bring back into rehearsal the next day with the actors.

Regional Theater awards), Odyssey Theatre Ensemble, New American Theatre and Not Man Apart–Physical Theatre Ensemble reunite to present the latest iteration in adapter, director and choreographer John Farmanesh-Bocca’s acclaimed Redux series.

Two low-priced previews take place on May 22 and May 23.
In this boldly evocative, perpetually surprising reconstruction of the Bard’s powerful drama, Jack Stehlin (DEA Captain Roy Till on Showtime’s Weeds) who previously starred in both Titus Redux at the Kirk Douglas and Tempest Redux at the Odyssey, inhabits the role of an aging actor whose last days strangely parallel those of Shakespeare’s tragic king. Like Shakespeare’s Lear, the actor has three d…

French director Maurice Attias, in residence at the Odyssey Theatre, brings a slice of French culture to L.A. with the West Coast premiere of Clôture de l’amour (Love’s End) by celebrated French playwright Pascal Rambert. Performances, in an English translation by Jim Fletcher and Kate Moran, run May 10 through June 15 at the Odyssey’s three-theater venue in West Los Angeles, with two low-priced previews May 8 and May 9.
Award-winning Australian actor Beejan Land, a member of France’s Theatre du Soleil who appeared on Broadway in The Kite Runner, and Ann Sonneville, recently seen in Last Summer at Bluefish Cove at the Fountain Theatre, star in Rambert’s riveting and bitingly funny look at the dissolution of a marriage. The audience is immediately hooked, drawn irrevocably into the world of a husband and wife whose deep love for one another has somehow, inexplicably come to an end. The language is violent, cutting and darkly comic, a torrential outpouring that offers a deeply insightful examination of love,…

Tasty Little Rabbit is a true story of intrigue and artists. Written by Tom Jacobson and directed by George Bamber, the story is set during the 1936 Fascist Italian investigation of pornography charges in Taormina, Sicily. This artistic prosecution uncovers a much darker secret of an 1890s love triangle involving poet Sebastian Melmoth, photographer Wilhelm Von Gloeden and an 18-year-old Sicilian boy. What might be discovered, and sacrificed, to protect secrets of the heart?
“Benito Mussolini used moral cleansing as a means to gain control of the people in Italy. Tasty Little Rabbit focuses on one such persecution of 1890s photographer Baron Wilhelm von Gloeden,” says director George Bamber. “He was the Gilded Age’s ultimate ‘influencer.’ His photographs of the locals on the Sicilian coast made the village of Taormina a required stop on the grand tour, particularly for prominent men attracted to beautiful male youth. What drew me to the play, what made it essential for me to direct, is Tom’s unpara…

BEYOND THE STREETS proudly presents PINK CLOUD, the triumphant LA debut of graffiti icon GREY (Jonas Melvin). A trailblazer of San Francisco’s golden graffiti era, GREY revolutionized the art form with his bold, punchy style, influencing generations. After rising to fame in the late '90s, GREY disappeared into a world of addiction and turmoil, resurfacing years later with a renewed purpose.
Now sober, GREY reflects on his journey through vibrant installations, paintings, and sculptures that blend his struggles with a message of hope. The show also features works by Alexis Ross, Alicia McCarthy, Angel Castro, Barry McGee, Cheryl Dunn, Dan Murphy, Dave Schubert, Elberto Muller, GKAE, Mark Cross, MERCH, Stephen Powers, Timothy Curtis, Todd James, and more.

Step into 1960s Dublin, where an amateur theater group and its passionate leader attempt to bring Oscar Wilde’s Salome to life against all odds. A Noise Within presents A Man of No Importance, an evocative, intimate musical gem from the Tony Award-winning team behind Ragtime: composer Stephen Flaherty, lyricist Lynn Ahrens, and bookwriter Terrence McNally. With ANW co-artistic director Julia Rodriguez-Elliott at the helm alongside music director Rod Bagheri, A Man of No Importance opens May 10 for a four-week run through June 1. Previews begin May 4.
Bus conductor Alfie Byrne has two joys in life: the poetry of Oscar Wilde and staging amateur productions with his local theater troupe, the St. Imelda Players. But when he opts to stage a production of Salome, this man of seemingly no importance must confront religious objections while facing the forces of bigotry and shame over a love “that dare not speak its name.” Inspired by a 1994 film starring Albert Finney, A Man of No Importance beautifully combines t…

IAMA Theatre Company closes its 17th season with a workshop production of the dark comedy “Trauma Play” by Abigail Miller. This new work will be directed by Co-Artistic Director of Ammunition Theatre Company Diana Wyenn, director, co-divisor, and dramaturg of the critically acclaimed solo show “Kristina Wong for Public Office.” In “Trauma Play,” when playwright Britt Benson gets buzzy reviews for the premiere of her new play, her life begins to spiral out of control. As Benson finds her childhood trauma suddenly scrutinized in the public eye, she slips into a dizzying morass of self-doubt that is heightened by the relentless media onslaught. Following a successful staged reading at IAMA’s 2023 New Works Festival, “Trauma Play” will have a workshop production which gives audiences the opportunity to be an integral part of the playmaking process, providing valuable and essential feedback with their reactions each night for the creative team to bring back into rehearsal the next day with the actors.

Renowned for their celebrated collaboration on Tempest Redux (winner of Stage Raw’s Production of the Year and Broadway World’s Production of the Decade for L.A.

In this boldly evocative, perpetually surprising reconstruction of the Bard’s powerful drama, Jack Stehlin (DEA Captain Roy Till on Showtime’s Weeds) who previously starred in both Titus Redux at the Kirk Douglas and Tempest Redux at the Odyssey, inhabits the role of an aging actor whose last days strangely parallel those of Shakespeare’s tragic king.

French director Maurice Attias, in residence at the Odyssey Theatre, brings a slice of French culture to L.A. with the West Coast premiere of Clôture de l’amour (Love’s End) by celebrated French playwright Pascal Rambert. Performances, in an English translation by Jim Fletcher and Kate Moran, run May 10 through June 15 at the Odyssey’s three-theater venue in West Los Angeles, with two low-priced previews May 8 and May 9.
Award-winning Australian actor Beejan Land, a member of France’s Theatre du Soleil who appeared on Broadway in The Kite Runner, and Ann Sonneville, recently seen in Last Summer at Bluefish Cove at the Fountain Theatre, star in Rambert’s riveting and bitingly funny look at the dissolution of a marriage. The audience is immediately hooked, drawn irrevocably into the world of a husband and wife whose deep love for one another has somehow, inexplicably come to an end. The language is violent, cutting and darkly comic, a torrential outpouring that offers a deeply insightful examination of love,…

Tasty Little Rabbit is a true story of intrigue and artists. Written by Tom Jacobson and directed by George Bamber, the story is set during the 1936 Fascist Italian investigation of pornography charges in Taormina, Sicily. This artistic prosecution uncovers a much darker secret of an 1890s love triangle involving poet Sebastian Melmoth, photographer Wilhelm Von Gloeden and an 18-year-old Sicilian boy. What might be discovered, and sacrificed, to protect secrets of the heart?
“Benito Mussolini used moral cleansing as a means to gain control of the people in Italy. Tasty Little Rabbit focuses on one such persecution of 1890s photographer Baron Wilhelm von Gloeden,” says director George Bamber. “He was the Gilded Age’s ultimate ‘influencer.’ His photographs of the locals on the Sicilian coast made the village of Taormina a required stop on the grand tour, particularly for prominent men attracted to beautiful male youth. What drew me to the play, what made it essential for me to direct, is Tom’s unpara…
