FURIOUS THEATRE COMPANY
Furious
Theatre Company is an award- winning professional ensemble committed to
edgy, innovative and original works. As our artists in residence, they
offer full seasons of daring new plays in the Carrie Hamilton Theatre.
The
company debuted in April of 2002 and rapidly produced five plays in 12
months, earning six NAACP Theatre Award nominations, two LA Weekly Award
nominations, and numerous critics’ picks from the Los Angeles media. The
company also received the
Pasadena Arts Council’s Gold Crown Award and The Debut Award from
Back Stage West.
In September of 2004, Furious Theatre Company and Pasadena
Playhouse forged a multi-year partnership that brought them to the
Playhouse as the resident producer in the Balcony Theatre (recently
renamed the
Carrie Hamilton Theatre), the Playhouse's 99-seat second stage.
Furious Theatre Company’s work at the Playhouse has included the
Los Angeles Premieres of Neil LaBute’s The Shape of Things,
Yussef El Guindi’s Back of the Throat and Craig Wright's
Grace, as well as a World Premiere Adaptation and two U.S.
Premieres.
Furious
Theatre Company is led by co-founders and Artistic Council members: Sara
Hennessy, Shawn Lee, Vonessa Martin, Eric Pargac, Brad Price and Dámaso
Rodriguez. Visit their
