L.A. Theatre Works

An L.A. Theatre Works performance is a unique experience, immediate and spontaneous, featuring a first-rate cast and live sound effects, creating a sound-rich, intimate experience that draws you into the story.

Under the leadership of Producing Director Susan Albert Loewenberg, L.A. Theatre Works (LATW) has been the foremost audio theater company in the United States for more than thirty years.

LATW records and performs our productions before a live audience in Los Angeles in an audio-friendly format. We then take those recordings and create radio broadcasts, podcasts, and digital downloads that reach millions of theater lovers around the world every year. We’ve recorded works from the most prominent playwrights, including classics by Shakespeare, Oscar Wilde, and George Bernard Shaw to modern masterpieces by Lynn Nottage, Neil Simon and Tom Stoppard –to name just a few.

On the road, LATW has delighted audiences with its unique live radio-theatre style performances in small towns and major cities across America.

Today, LATW’s Audio Theatre Collection includes nearly 600 audio recordings of plays – the largest library of its kind in the world. In addition to our broadcast and podcast options, we offer our collection through our website store as well as through major distributors like Audible and iTunes. We also feature outreach to schools, who use our recordings and study guides to teach language arts, literature, history and civics.

Playwright's Note

When I was in second grade, my teacher Mrs. Sharp would pull me out of the reading circle and have me draw on giant rolls of butcher paper instead. She kept everything I drew . . . .That same year, my mother took me to the dentist. While we waited in the reception area I picked up a photo book by Douglas Duncan called The Private Life of Picasso. The beautiful black and white photos showed a shirtless old man that painted and played like a child. He also had doves, several dogs, and a goat. I turned and said to my mom, ‘When I grow up I want to be that old man.' ‘That's Pablo Picasso,' she said. ‘Es loco.' My dear mother did not discourage me, I knew better. The old man was not crazy but rather unconventional and free which inspired me profoundly to later live my own life in that manner. I went to art school, got a degree and later became an actor/writer so in a sense, this play took me my whole life to write. — HERBERT SIGÜENZA
