Stephen Eich to End Tenure as Executive Director of Pasadena Playhouse

Stephen Eich, who joined Pasadena Playhouse as Executive Director in July 2009, will end his tenure in that position on or around February 29. He will continue to serve in a consulting capacity through June 30.

Eich is a producer, manager, teacher, and director with over 30 years experience in both the commercial and not-for-profit professional theater. During his time at the Playhouse, he helped to implement a fiscal reorganization of the theater that has brought it to a place of economic stability.

In a statement, Eich remarks, “I take great pride in knowing that the complicated and courageous journey this organization embarked upon in the last couple of years was unequivocally successful. I will leave this organization stronger than it has been in a long time, with no debt, and a bright and extraordinary future ahead.”

A national search for a new Executive Director for The Pasadena Playhouse will begin shortly.
