Openfist Theatre Company

Presently in residence at Atwater Village Theatre

Founded in 1990, the company chose the name Open Fist to represent its fierce determination to reach out and engage audiences with impactful work. From its inception, the company immediately established its reputation as a cutting-edge ensemble, willing to tackle difficult material. Under the present leadership of Artistic Director Martha Demson, the company has evolved into a self-producing and ever-expanding artistic collective of actors, playwrights, designers and directors.
