RECOMMENDED! by Stageraw.com

Griot Theatre is grateful and honored by theatre critic Gray Palmer's presence at the show and his glowing review. In his own words:


"...a delightful re-telling of Sophocles' Philoctetes..."


"... really good actors do it by their simple, complete presence. El-Amin's casting is terrific."


"...a superb Regan Linton, a performer unconstrained by her wheel-chair - actually somehow freed into great physicality..."


"...with The Archer from Malis, Griot under the direction of El-Amin directly harmonizes and heals."

Griot Theatre is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization serving Greater Los Angeles County.  

MISSION
Everyone has a story to tell. That's what we do in theatre. Yet women, artists of color, and artists with physical disabilities have been left out of the conversation - their voices unheard - in traditional theatre.

We believe that theatre performs two functions: it reminds us who we've been and it teaches us who we have the potential to become. When our stories lack diversity, our past remains deficient and our future less bright. Griot Theatre exists to give voice to these untold stories, by creating a forum for artists from underrepresented groups to interpret theatre in new ways.
