Los Angeles Mission College Theatre Arts will present Mr. Grieves and The Vampires, an original adaptation of the 1915 French silent film series, Les Vampires. 

The 100-minute dark comedy plays May 12-20, 2023 in LA Mission’s AMP Theater. Tickets are $20 for orchestra and $10 for mezzanine. Tickets are on sale now and can be purchased at the link below.

​

In this lightning-fast world, intrepid journalist Philip Grieves goes to perilous lengths to bring down the brutal anarchist crime syndicate, The Vampires—masters of kidnapping, jewel heists, disguise, poison, getaways, and murderous chaos. Just as Grieves zeroes in, a nefarious new villain escapes from jail and uses the powers of hypnosis to bring The Vampires, Grieves, and the whole city to their knees.

The start of the 2023-24 school year in August brings with it new classes and opportunities for theatre students. Our theatre program will expand with the anticipated approval of a one-year Certificate in Technical Theatre. This efficient course of study includes many classes that already offered, along with a new course, Technical Theatre Production, and the return of Introduction to Scenic Design. Additionally, Robert Cucuzza will be offering an advanced acting class, Intermediate Applied Acting, that will give students a higher level of acting technique, focusing on the preparation of complete plays for in-class presentation. Course information can be found by clicking below.

Join us on Monday, March 6 at 7:00 pm for an evening with actor, podcaster, storyteller, and author Christopher Rivas. Rivas will read from his newly-published memoir, Brown Enough, about forging a path in the entertainment industry as a Latino artist, and discovering himself in the process. Rivas will also answer questions about Vox Pop, a new student-centered performance celebration at LA Mission College, which he will be curating and hosting. The evening will wrap up with a book signing, hosted by Tia Chucha's Centro Cultural.

This is a free event that will take place in AMP107, the Arts, Media & Performance Theater.
