With a mission to tell “great stories by great storytellers,” the Arden Theatre Company presents an annual season of several mainstage productions and children’s works.
The Arden’s great stories have include lively reinterpretations of classic works by William Shakespeare, Stephen Sondheim and Tennessee Williams, as well as the work of contemporary playwrights such as Michael Hollinger and Bruce Graham, whose productions have been among the company’s world premieres.
With every production, the Arden’s creative team views the audience as the key collaborator in a journey to engage the imagination.

Founded in 1988 — in a rented space at Walnut Street Theatre — by Terrence J. Nolen, Amy Murphy and Aaron Posner, the Arden Theatre Company now has an Old City base with two theaters. The company has a professional children’s theater program, the first in the city; a professional apprenticeship program and initiatives to ensure access for people of all incomes and abilities.
Among its numerous awards are 77 Barrymores and four “Theatre Company of the Year” citations from The Philadelphia Inquirer.
The Arden uses the same meticulous standards and high caliber of actors and designers for its children’s shows as for its adult productions. Performances include a Q & A session and a chance to meet the cast.
The Arden also offers the “Family Usher Network” (or FUN), which gives kids the chance to help seat the audience, take a backstage tour and participate in the onstage, pre-show speech.
