Friends of the Pasadena Playhouse Projects and Upcoming Events

Dining Out

Friends  meet the friends and enjoy meals at local restaurants.  A part of revenue from dining out goes  to  the Friends of The Pasadena Playhouse.  
The   upcoming   events  are  announced   in the Friends   calendar  and  via   email.   
​
Check out our calendar for the next   dining out event.

Pasadena Showcase House for the Arts

 Volunteer with us for the annual Pasadena Showcase House for the Arts (PSHA)  and support local art programs and our theatre! ​

 Funds we receive from staffing the PSHA allow us to provide non-budgeted items for our theatre.  

In   2024,   our   volunteers and   friends   staffed   many shifts   and earned $5,050.    Thank you to   everyone   for   your   time,   dedication   and  donations! 

Bauer Estate & Gardens is   2025 Pasadena Showcase House of Design  (April 20 – May 18, 2025).

The Greenroom Renovation

The Friends have adopted the Greenroom and refurbished it a little at a time. Dressing rooms have been painted, a new carpet and new refrigerator have been installed ... all this before the beginning of the 2016-2017 season.

​Our Friend Allan Yovanovich knew just a right young man for taking on the task of painting -- Eagle Scout candidate Joshua Quan. Our multi-talented Friend and House Artist Peggy Ebright helped to select a Craftsman palette.

​They assembled a crew, arranged financial backing, and completed the project. 

New paint and carpet in the Greenroom

​The  Playhouse staff member Kristen  ​Hammack and her mother, Wendy Hammack  had   ​donated  new  drapery  to dressing  rooms.

​In July   2017,   the  Friends hosted   the    Greenroom Reception by re-dedicating the Greenroom to  Sheldon Epps'  parents St. Paul and Kathryn Epps.    

This was the Friends’ Centennial gift to The Playhouse.  We also chose that project to acknowledge Sheldon’s  20 years  as Artistic Director, and all that he has accomplished  in that time.

​The reception was attended by Sheldon Epps, the Playhouse staff, Eagle Scout Joshua Quan, 
members of the Friends,  Playhouse Board members and Larry Wilson from the Star News.
