The Zephyr Theatre, originally called the Horseshoe Stage, opened on January 5th, 1956 at a time when intimate performance bases were scarce. It has been a working stage ever since, hosting plays, musicals, readings, workshops, live comedy, and performance-based classes. For more than 50 years, the Zephyr has been a mainstay of the Los Angeles theater scene and has hosted writers and performers at every level of achievement, from Oscar and Emmy award winners to new playwrights.

The Zephyr Theatre is a 3/4th thrust stage with 74 seats total and roughly 50 seats in the center section. We have a beautiful recently updated outdoor courtyard that is used as the lobby plus 3 restrooms and 2 spacious dressing rooms.
