The ARK Theatre Company is an actor-driven repertory theatre ensemble working in Los Angeles , California .
General [ edit ]
Ark Theatre Company is an ensemble of theatre professionals specializing in classical theatre, with an eye to contemporary plays that reflect the depth and interplay of language in classical works.[1] The company was founded in 2000 by artistic director Paul Wagar, a former member of the Royal Shakespeare Company . The Honorary Advisory Board of Directors consists of: Marshall Borden, Kitty Felde, Doug Jocelyn, Patricia Johnson, Lee Meriwether , Karen Morrow, Lisa Rosen, Michael Rosen, Jennifer Rowland, Martin Sheen , Mindy Steinman, and Gore Vidal . Ark Theatre Company was cited by LA Weekly as being among the "Los Angeles actor-driven ensembles with staying power,"[2] adding that the company "performs classics with a rock & roll sloppiness; equal parts aggravating and scintillating, always worth watching."
Production history [ edit ]
Ark Theatre Company has, since its inception, produced a wide variety of material, from Edward II by Christopher Marlowe to [3] Charles Ludlam 's The Mystery of Irma Vep . The Ugly Man by Brad Frazier, The Maids by Jean Genet , and F*cking Hollywood, adapted from Arthur Schnitzler 's La Ronde by Paul Wagar, are all testament to the company's intrinsic eclecticism. Ark Theatre' s controversial 2003 production of Anthony Burgess ' A Clockwork Orange , directed by Brad Mays ,[4] was nominated for three LA Weekly Theatre Awards , for Best Direction, Best Revival Production (of a 20th-century work), and Best Actress.[5] Vanessa Claire Smith won Best Actress for her gender-bending portrayal of Alex , the story's music-loving teenaged sociopath .[6] [7] Richard Tatum was likewise nominated for an LA Weekly Theatre Award for his performance in Ibsen 's A Doll's House .[8] Other representative productions include director Richard Tatum 's staging of The Country Wife by William Wycherley [9] for which Tatum received an LA Weekly Theatre Award nomination for Best Adaptation;[10] Richard Tatum's staging of On the Verge by Eric Overmeyer ; Steven Shields' production of William Shakespeare 's The Tempest ; Return to the Forbidden Planet , directed by Vanessa Claire Smith;[11] Les Miller's staging of Ibsen 's Hedda Gabler ;[12] Lloyd's Prayer by Kevin Kling and Christopher Durang 's Sister Mary Ignatius Explains It All For You , both directed by Susan Lee Johnson; and Caryl Churchill 's sexual fantasmagoria Cloud 9 , and a reconceptualization of William Shakespeare 's The Merchant of Venice , both directed by Paul Wagar.
