A Noise Within (ANW) produces classic theatre as an essential means
to enrich the community by embracing universal human experiences,
expanding personal awareness, and challenging individual
perspectives. Named “one of the nation’s premier classical
repertory companies” by The Huffington Post, A Noise
Within is a leading regional producer. Staging its first production
(Hamlet) in 1991, A Noise Within has grown into a beloved
Los Angeles institution that continually achieves a high artistic
standard, challenges audiences, empowers students, and contributes
to an inclusive, welcoming, and theatre-loving Los Angeles
community. In its three decades, A Noise Within has strengthened
its working relationship with Actors’ Equity Association (the
Actors’ Union) and this commitment to professionalism has helped
ANW grow its theatre from 60 seats to 324 today. A Noise Within
operates out of its permanent theatrical home in Pasadena, which is
a three story, 30,000 square foot facility complete with rehearsal
space, scene and costume shops, classrooms, administrative offices,
and more. This state-of-the-art facility was established in 2011
following a $13.5 million capital campaign and allows ANW to serve
more than 51,000 patrons annually.
In 2018, A Noise Within launched two new initiatives that have
redefined it as an inclusive community hub where art happens, is
celebrated, and discussed, and where theatre comes to life in many
ways for many people. The first of these programs is Noise Now, a
community place-making initiative that includes readings,
adaptations, multi-genre performances, dance, art installations,
and non-traditional theatre presented collaboratively with
innovative organizations working in and around Los Angeles. The
second initiative is ANW’s annual “Relaxed Performance” program,
which is designed for patrons with autism spectrum disorder,
developmental delay, and other disorders of social interaction and
communication. These performances are open to all, but specifically
designed for young patrons whose sensory disorders can make it
challenging for them to sit through a traditional live theatre
experience. These Relaxed Performances are delivered by the same
professional cast and maintain the recognized excellence that is a
hallmark for A Noise Within.
Commitment to student audiences is central to the mission of A
Noise Within. Each year, ANW dedicates a third of its performances
and 30% of its operating budget to education and outreach programs.
With vital government and foundation funding, A Noise Within
provides support to schools in need, including transportation to
the theatre; free and reduced-cost tickets for live performances;
post-show discussions with artists; in-class workshops; and more.
Over its 30-year history, ANW has served more than 285,000 students
and teachers.
A bachelor's degree or an equivalent combination of education and
experience is required for this position as is at six years of
relevant experience. All applications must be accompanied by a
cover letter and resume. Cover letters should be responsive to the
mission of A Noise Within as well as the responsibilities and
qualifications stated in the position prospectus.
The salary range for this position is $125,000 to $135,000
annually. A Noise Within offers a comprehensive package of
benefits.
