About Actors Forum
Theatre
Fueled by her ever
burning love for the theatre, Audrey Marlyn Singer founded the
Actors Forum Theatre in 1975, converting a tin building
located on Cahuenga Boulevard West to a small theatre with the
help of her many actor friends. She was looking to rent a
theatre to put on the play "Dylan" when she realized it was
time to get a space of her own. For 19 years, she produced,
and/or directed, and/or acted in many, many shows that the
Actors Theatre Forum mounted at 3365 1/2 Cahuenga Boulevard
West, nestled at the foot of the Hollywood Hills, between Los
Angeles and the gateway to the Valley. She successfully
established the Actors Forum Theatre as an award winning
theatre group that continually produced top notch shows.
When the building was sold,
Audrey and her husband Mike Singer decided to relocate in the
NoHo Arts District, L.A.'s newest and fastest growing theatre
and arts center. In 1994, they bought the building at 10655
Magnolia Boulevard, the current home of the Actors Forum
Theatre. The following year, after converting it into a
comfortable and charming 45 seat Equity House, they opened
with the play "Monique." Audrey continues to produce award
winning and notable shows, the most recent of which include
"The Great Sebastians," "The Boyfriend," "Fireflies: Wizards
of Magic," Messin' With Destiny," and "A Hatful of Rain."
The Actors Forum Theatre is
also an Actors Group consisting of from 14-25 members. The
workshop sessions, led by Ms. Singer, meet weekly on Tuesdays,
7:30 to 10:30 p.m., to explore and experiment with various
theatre pieces including Musicals, Dramas, Comedies, the new
and the old, and just about anything else. Auditions for
membership are held the last Saturday of each month. The cost
is $25 with 3 months required to be paid in advance.
Thursday night workshop
productions are produced with members only. Main Stage
productions (Fri., Sat. & Sun.) are members first refusal with
open auditions held for those roles not filled from the Actors
Forum Theatre Group. The Actors Forum Theatre accepts new play
submissions.
