Production files of the Robey Theatre Company of Los Angeles, California, from the period 1999-2011.

The Robey Theatre Company is led by Co-founder and Producing Artistic Director, Ben Guillory. The organization was founded in 1994 to offer theater training along with playwriting workshops and readings in order to create opportunities for Black theater artists. Artists of color and audiences alike have had insufficient opportunities to hear these voices and to experience their unique expression of culture. Robey was founded to help fill that gap.
