History
Established in 1973.
The Group Rep at the Lonny Chapman Theatre began May 1973 with a rag-tag group of 12 actors performing scenes for audiences in a laundromat-turned 36 seat theatre on Van Ness Boulevard. When Lonny Chapman first entered that theatre, the magic began. Here was an Artistic Director in search of a theatre and a theatre company in search of an Artistic Director. The match was perfect and the Group Repertory Theatre was born with Lonny Chapman at the helm. This partnership continued until his passing in 2007.
In 1999, Lonny was honored when the theatres name officially became the «Lonny Chapman Theatre,» home to the Group Repertory Theatre members, now called the Group Rep at the Lonny Chapman Theatre.
