A Noise Within Review

Our favorite theater is Southern California. Always great and thoughtful productions.

This is a great theater experience! They do mostly "classical" plays like Moliere, Shakespeare, Shaw, etc. but they do them with awesome incidental music, great acting, and sensitivity to the modern audience. The price is very good for what you get and their new home is very clean and modern.

It was good. I wish they would have updated the dialogue

It was an engaging place where u felt connected to the audience.

Great performances all around in "Man of La Mancha"

Perfect theatre space. Wonderful production Noises Off. They also run shows in repertory, so you have options as to which show you want to see. Seats are comfortable, bathrooms large, cast talented and staff welcome. Also FREE parking nearby. Go take in a show! Live theatre is an essential experience!

Quality productions, beautiful venue, friendly staff.

Saw Man of La Mancha here. It was simply superb. Wonderfully funny and, just plain fun!

Wonderful place to see a play! Very well kept and organized!

Great repertory theatre; classic and modern plays are performed with like professionalism.

Such a gem! Husband and I saw Raisin in the Sun and were floored at how fantastic everyone in the cast was! What a delight! It's a modern, yet intimate playhouse and all the staff were attentive and polite. Especially the young lady at will call, M was so helpful with our tickets. Such a great experience, a must do!

Great stage access for the audience. Pricey. Can be more community friendly by providing more discount nights for college and high school students. Give more access to the common folk!

Saw an amazing rendition of The Glass Menagerie. Very small theater where every seat is a good one. Actors are a resident group, and very talented in interpretation and delivery.

Without a doubt, the best theater in L.A. sure, you could go to the ahmanson, or the taper, but this is an intimate setting, not a bad seat in the house. The artistic director, and director director (I believe that's an official title) do a spectacular job of bringing classic theater to life and making it relevant for modern audiences. I never miss any of their Shakespeare productions, and I'm ecstatic to see they're branching into some new and risque theater territory. LOVE LOVE LOVE A Noise Within. If you're a theater novice or junkie, it's WELL worth checking them out.

Beautiful theater with easy parking in the Metro structure in the back. The company is very good and puts on wonderful shows and great performances.

This is an independent theater that highlights artists who go beyond mainstream productions or artists who want to showcase their different artistic side. The plays here are totally worth it especially for the serious theatre lovers.
It s a very intimate venue and the audience will feel very much part of the production. Just a note on the parking, it shares the Metro Parking building.
Enjoy the venue and the plays!

Nice intimate theater with good acoustics. We saw Raisin in the Sun. Performance was good.

My husband and I had a truly memorable theatre experience last night. "NOISES OFF" done by the fabulous reperatory company at this fabulous Theatre willlast in our memory for a long time.

I saw the best production of Man of La Mancha here. Truly extraordinary. All seats were great. The cast was exceptional.

Professional company putting on high quality productions in an intimate and comfortable space.

Awesome intimate venue. Anywhere you sit is a great view. Love this joint.

Adequate rendition of Shakespeare with Americanised British English - was strange for a native English speaker from UK

Intimate theater with a wide variety of performances.

Our junior class got the opportunity to see Glass Menagerie and it was such a fantastically done show. Thank you guys so much!

Great cozy theatre. It deserves 6 stars. Amazing performances. All seats are very close and affordable.

really cool stuff happening here, and SO EASY to take the train from DTLA. gems like this one are... well... gems!

Wonderful stage in vintage building comfortably places seating

cozy theater, conveniently located. performance by the actors was moving and wonderful, including honoring one of the actors for his lifetime achievement. highly recommend.

This is a first class playhouse in Pasadena. I've seen over a dozen plays here and am continually impressed by the production, the actors, sets, and costumes. If you enjoy theater, try this this playhouse and I bet you'll come back.

Amazing performance, storyline telling at it's Best. Also, the configuration of auditorium seats are perfect. Parking adjacent to theatre, spacious lobby and concession stand located in main lobby. Bravo to all and House Staff

Small and intimate venue - there's not a bad seat in the house! Excellent pricing and flexible ticket packages, especially for young adults. Parking is easy and free! I highly recommend - they always have a good theater season lineup.

Henry V was excellent. Every show here is above expectations.

Five stars says it all. I went on Wednesday to watch Noises Off; staff was incredible and play was amazing!

An absolutely excellent Don Quixote. Simple, sophisticated set design, rich,textured performances, tremendous voices - I highly recommend this experience!

Very good thater company,
I try to catch all their plays at least once.
Highly recomended, amazing performing arts theater.

Saw King Henry V - very good acting, very basic sets, nice theatre, reasonable concession.

Super craftsmanship, excellent acting, wonderful seating: what more can you ask for? R&G Are Dead was excellent!

I went to watch a Frankenstein play. I enjoyed it and I'm glad I sent. The theatre is great with wonderful acoustics. Parking is ample. Nothing negative comes to mind. I'm a big fella but I was able to sit comfortably next to strangers without smothering them.

Professional theater producing wide range of great plays.

I saw Raisin In The Sun here, which was a great play that I highly recommend. The venue is small but cozy. I think it helps in a way to get you into the play more.

I love this place, if only because opportunities for me to see live theater are rare.

My six year old grandson went for summer break and is now cast as tiny Tim in a Christmas Carol. It's a remarkable theatre experience in every way

Nice environment good place to celebrate with family

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead was the best production of Tom Stoppard's existential tour de force that I have ever seen. Support live drama and be thoroughly entertained!

This is a very community minded professional theatre. They host a diverse collection of events beyond their own company's work. The recent selection of "Ceiling in the Floor" for the Noise Now series was an example of their commitment to listen well and respond courageously to neighbors and peer organizations about topics that are under represented in the arts. Well done!

A small venue (compared to most) presents as very large during performances. The acoustics are phenomenal. The seats...wide and plush...super comfy and actually every seat in the house is a great view. Restrooms are easily accessible and at least at the time of my visit, were clean!!! The Docents were extremely friendly and welcoming. Something I don't always find at most theatres.

The play, Man of La Mancha, was great, though with modern costumes and prison, changed from the 16th century version I saw in 1966. The cast was excellent, except for the casting of Sancho Panza. He has always been a short, stocky man, even in his statue in Madrid,but this Sancho was a thin, young Conan O'Brien sort of guy, who didn't have nearly the quality of voice as the other actors. Also, as I was sitting on the side of the U-shaped seating configuration and the actors rarely looked anywhere but straight up front, it was often difficult to see their expressions and, sometimes, to hear. I have often seen plays in the round and have never felt like the actors did not care for the part of the audience on the sides.
Lastly, parking was very inefficient. There is a nice driveway in front of the theater, but the small parking lot there belongs to the apartment complex. My friend who drove, a 75-year old woman, had to go all the way across the street to park in a shopping center. It wasn't until we entered the building that we found out by asking someone, as there was no signage, the theater's parking lot was around a block further up. These issues need to be addressed before I will see another play here or recommend this theater.

First time visiting and really liked it. Not a bad seat in the house.

The best theatre company in Los Angeles.

Wish their schedule had more Shakespeare but otherwise just fantastic!

Smaller, intimate, conscientious service. Had a great time.

One of the very best productions of Man From La Mancha I've ever seen ... Truly creative and spectacular. If you enjoy live theater you won't want miss it!

Henry V was excellent. All aspects of the production - from the design concept to the performances - were spot on. There's a lot of bad Shakespeare out there. Lucky for us, we have ANW.

I've been here twice on field trips and it's a wonderful little theater. The people are so nice and the actors are really good. I love that they have a little q and a after for the audience which really provides some insight for the audience.

Well-kept theater with all seats having great views! You're not stuck behind a tall person in these seats! The quality was phenomenal. Just saw Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead - awesome production.

This is soon of the best theater you'll see in LA. The theater is new and beautiful. It's small enough that there's not a bad seat in the house, but large enough to support high quality theater. I've only been to 2 shows so far, but I'll be going back for more. The acting, directing, staging, and production value are all among the best I've seen anywhere in LA, including the Ahmanson and Pantages. And plentiful free parking and a light rail stop right next door are incredible luxuries for this town. Highly recommend!

Just attended Alice in Wonderland.. great venue in a intimate environment

Nice theater. Easy entry with print-at-home scanned tickets. Great acting.

The show was GREAT... However I couldn't find the restroom lol ...
