The Center Theatre Group is breaking exciting ground this fall with a new production of Green Day's rock opera musical American Idiot. Working in collaboration with the Tony Award winners Deaf West Theatre, the play will star Deaf and hearing actors performing in both English and American Sign Language simultaneously. The show, based on Green Day's multi-platinum Grammy award-winning 2004 album, first premiered in Berkeley in 2009 and became the theater's best-selling show of all time, and after it moved across the States and the global stage. Now the monumental show is returning to its home state of California for an unforgettable and unique performance that has to be witnessed!

Taking inspiration from the cinematic auteurs David Lynch and Alfred Hitchcock, Tony-nominated director Robert O'Hara brings a thrilling new adaptation of Shakespeare's Hamlet to the stage in Los Angeles! The innovative director brings a film-noir inspired spin to the classic play, promising fresh perspectives on the depth of Shakespeare's characters.

Exciting times are upon us as the world premiere of Larissa FastHorse's new play, Fake It Until You Make It is heading to the Mark Taper Forum this January. Fasthorse, the multi-award-winning and first-known female Native American Broadway playwright, is breaking more firsts as the first Native American writer to stage a play at the LA-based theater. Working together with director Michael John Garcs, Fake It Until You Make It is a thought-provoking comedy taking a bold look at identity and the Native American experience.
