All of our summer events are entirely free. In 2011, we moved into an indoor, year-round venue in the Atwater Crossing Complex in Atwater Village. We now occupy a 65-seat performance venue, the Independent Studio. At the Studio, we present new plays that connect us to our history and experimental productions of classical plays. We’re expanding what we think about theater, and engaging our audience in the conversation about what theater can be, and its role in the community.
