The Pasadena Playhouse has announced that Danny Feldman will be the theatre鈥檚 new executive/artistic director. Feldman will work closely with outgoing leader Sheldon Epps, who previously announced his retirement and will become the Playhouse鈥檚 artistic director emeritus.
Feldman joins the California theatre from his current position as executive director at Labyrinth Theater Company in New York, where he has been since 2010 and was behind its first Broadway production, The Motherf**ker With the Hat.

鈥淚 warmly welcome Danny to The Playhouse,鈥� said Epps in a press statement. 鈥淚 am sure that his energy, enthusiasm and passion for our art form will be of great value to our theatre and to our community. I look forward to working with him, and to our collaboration over the course of the transition.鈥�
