Take a dive into our 20th anniversary season with the OC Register!

The OC Register came for a visit to get to know us at the Chance, what our aspirations as a theater company are, and what our 20th season has to offer. Take a look…

“Since the company’s 1999 founding, ‘Our mission was to use theater and the power of live theater to engage with our community and have our community engage with each other,’ Chance Managing Director Casey Long said.”

“They specialize in newer works and refreshed versions of classic shows, Founding Artistic Director Oahn Nguyen said, likening the company to the off-Broadway venue of Orange County.”

“Several supporters said Chance Theater gave them a feeling of family. As donor Wylie Aitken described the company: ‘It has got the quality of a large theater and the intimacy of a small theater.””

“The company holds topical discussions after its shows and offers outreach programs to help youth and veterans find their voices in the theater.”

While people often think of New York as the home of live theater, there’s plenty of writing and acting talent in Southern California, she said, and ‘I think the Chance Theater is one of the places that you can see that.’”

See for yourself why we’re Anaheim’s official resident theater company and join us for our 20th season!
