 Historical Note

The East Lynne Company was a theatre company founded in 1980, by Warren Kliewer, and is still in operation as of 2024. The theater was dedicated to American stage classics because no other theater in the United States was doing it at the time. Kliewer named the company after an adaptation of East Lynne, a novel from 1861. Michèle LaRue married Kliewer circa 1971, and she acted in plays Kliewer produced.
