Happy New Year from the Artists at Play founding members! Julia, Stefanie, and Marie were lucky to be reunited with Peter while he passed through town. Aside from a few virtual meetups, we hadn't seen each other since ... 2019?! Closed down #CanoeHouse and kept chatting in the parking lot, there was so much to catch up on and reminisce about. Many things have changed, some remain the same, but here we all are still making theatre. Here's to many more years of friendship! #LAthtr #AAP4Founders

Our #AAPCommunity is amazing, no notes! 2023 marked the return of the Artists at Play mainstage, with the world premiere of THIS IS NOT A TRUE STORY, and our continued commitment to new play development, providing opportunities to emerging artists, and uplifting AAPI storytellers.

Just when you thought we were done with programming for the year, Artists at Play offers another episode of the AAP Podcast! Check out "STORIES FROM THE THEATRE: Small Town America, Murder, and Drag" ... #AAPListen

Boston Court Pasadena's workshop reading of THE BUCKLE SISTERS included the talents of so many Artists at Play friends & collaborators ...

We couldn't get everyone in the group photo but loved seeing those who could attend Artists at Play's holiday potluck picnic! Such a nice celebration of the programming we were able to provide this year and all the people who helped make it happen. Featuring a fun "ugly sweater" activity and a special appearance by those too-cool-for-school theatre kids who only wear black. ✌️😉

Behold the celestial Cheryl Umaña from last night's performance of "La Virgen de Guadalupe, Dios Inantzin" at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels. In addition to supporting friends & collaborators, Artists at Play's Marie-Reine Velez and Stefanie Lau were excited to experience this special annual event by the @latinotheaterco (presented in Spanish with English subtitles).
