A Noise Within produces classic theatre as an essential means to enrich our community by embracing universal human experiences, expanding personal awareness, and challenging individual perspectives. Our company of resident and guest artists performing in rotating repertory immerses student and general audiences in timeless, epic stories in an intimate setting.
A Noise Within (ANW) is the only year-round classical repertory theatre in Southern California and one of only a handful in the nation. Each season, ANW presents over 150 performances of 7 classic plays, serving about 51,000 patrons (including 18,000 students and teachers). ANW has been recognized with dozens of awards by theatre, arts, and business organizations for the high quality of our productions, entrepreneurialism, and contributions to the civic and cultural life of Pasadena and Los Angeles. Our history of achievement prompted the Los Angeles Times to declare ANW "an oasis for those who love classical theater."
In a typical season, ANW's Education Program reaches 18,000 students and teachers from nearly 200 schools in 40+ school districts. The program consists of a thoughtfully designed suite of transformational theatre arts learning experiences, including:STUDENT MATINEES & EVENING PERFORMANCESWeekday matinee performances for students feature the same professional cast as evening performances. Students enjoy a pre-show introduction, full-length production, and post-show discussion with the artists that is facilitated by our Director of Education.Continued at Schedule O.
Launched in February 2019, ANW's community-driven program, Noise Now, includes readings, adaptations, multi-genre performances, dance, art installations, and non-traditional theatre presented collaboratively with innovative organizations working in and around Los Angeles. During our first year of programming, events explored themes of mental health, cultural traditions, transgender and gender-non-conforming identities, and our own relationship to Native land. Over 2,000 audience members attended Noise Now performances that year, 36% of whom had never been to ANW. Survey results indicate that Noise Now audiences included 22% more people of color, 12% more patrons under 30, and 16% more low-income patrons than ANW's subscriber season audiences.Continued at Schedule O.
