This image shows a stage scene where three actors are performing. In the foreground, a man with short, graying hair and a beard is energetically pointing upward with a confident expression. He is wearing a sleeveless, frayed denim jacket over a dark t-shirt. Behind him, seated, are two other performers. One is dressed in casual jeans, a black t-shirt, and glasses, with their arms resting on their hips. The other is wearing sunglasses, a plaid blazer, jeans, and sneakers, sitting with legs crossed in a more relaxed pose. The stage lighting is bright, illuminating the actors against a dark backdrop.

Lots going on this week, and even more coming soon!

 

@ THE HOBGOBLIN PLAYHOUSE

6440 Santa Monica Blvd., Los Angeles, CA 90038


The Tunnel Rats Sketch Comedy

Wednesday-Thursday @ 8pm | 75 minutes | General Admission $15
Two Performances Only!

The Tunnel Rats is a high-octane sketch comedy collective formed in Los Angeles in 2019. They bring a raucous brand of sketch comedy to the stage that is often irreverent, occasionally intelligent, and always a little dark…or a lot. They regret nothing! The Tunnel Rats put on a show that’s loud, loose, and lightly coquettish. Get Tickets

 

Mister Kay

Friday-Sunday @ 8pm | 80 minutes | General Admission $25
Closing Weekend

Don’t miss the final weekend of Mister Kay, an original adaptation of David Giesselman’s 1999 German Black Comedy Herr Kolpert. This update, created and directed by the renowned Pastiche Queen, is a daring piece that explores themes of human curiosity, ethics, and the nature of entertainment, now updated to reflect contemporary issues. Get Tickets

What the Constitution Means To Me

October 3rd-19th | The Hobgoblin Playhouse | Tickets start at $22.80
Coming Soon

What the Constitution Means to Me, a play by Heidi Schreck, is back in LA this October for a limited engagement. This Pulitzer Prize-finalist piece brings new life to the United States Constitution and asks us to question what, and who, we truly value.

When fifteen-year-old Heidi was growing up, she entered Constitutional debate competitions to earn money for college. Now, a grown woman trying to understand the implications of nationalism, government, and beliefs, Heidi brings back her teenage self to explore the profound relationship between four generations of women and to explore what the Constitution really means to her.

Directed by Kevin O’Rourke, Jr. and starring Genny Wilson as Heidi, this enlivening piece asks us all to question our foundational beliefs and assess just what we’re willing to stand for. Get Tickets

 

Henry IV Parts I & II by William Shakespeare

October 30th-November 24th | The Madnani Theater | Tickets On Sale Soon!
Coming Soon

The Madnani is excited to host Henry IV Parts I and II, presented by The Porters of Hellsgate. This will be the Porter’s 33rd and 34th productions in their journey towards finishing Shakespeare’s canon.

Director Margaret Starbuck on diving into the process –  “I’m thrilled to get to direct these two epic plays for the Porters. I love the way the Henry IVs dynamically intercut uproarious comedic scenes with Scandal-esque court intrigue and intense battle scenes. Their exploration of how power is gained, maintained, enforced and sacrificed for is a topic that is ripe for discussion in this election year.” Learn More
