New Village Arts Theatre was founded in April 2001 by graduates of New York's Actors Studio Drama School. NVA is about to embark upon its ninth season of producing award-winning, critically acclaimed theatre in North County San Diego. Thanks to the support of the City of Carlsbad and many generous individuals and companies, New Village Arts opened their new theatrical space in the heart of Carlsbad Village in June of 2007. Season Nine includes two regional premieres, two American classics and a thought-provoking comedy, along with an entirely new Foundry space for art and education.
New Village Arts presents theatre fueled by the power and passion of the artist and shares with its audience an uncompromising appetite for the human experience.
New Village Arts' Summer Comedy Festival features David Ives' TIME FLIES, Emily Reit's PROM NIGHT, David Ives' SURE THING, and BILLY WATSON AND THE SILVER STRING SUBMARINE BAND. It runs August 1 through 16, 2009 at the New Village Arts Theatre, 2787 State Street, Carlsbad Village.
