About Us

Now in our third year of presenting exceptional and thought provoking theatrical productions, The Hayworth Theatre is conveniently located in Los Angeles’ Historic Wilshire District.

Formerly a movie theater and dance studio, The Hayworth has been transformed into Los Angeles’ hottest and most vibrant theatre and performing arts center. This two story stucco - over brick structure houses a 99 seat theatre, 42 seat theatre, 49 seat theatre, dressing room, green room and a 1500 sq ft ballroom perfect for auditions, rehearsals, classes, parties and special events.

The Hayworth Theatre designated in 1983 as Los Angeles Historic Cultural Monument 268, is representative of the Spanish Colonial Revival style, also called the ornate Churriqueresque style. The building was designed in 1926 by noted architect Stiles O. Clements, a major Los Angeles figure, who designed about 100 buildings along Wilshire Blvd.

Over the past two years The Hayworth has produced critically acclaimed productions including “Not a Genuine Black Man”, “Nowhere On The Border”, “The Good Steno” , “Sexy Laundry” and most recently “The Catskill Sonata” and “Adam Baum and the Jew Movie” directed by Paul Mazursky.
