Little Armenia

In 2000, the Los Angeles City Council designated the area surrounding the Fountain Theatre as Little Armenia. In 2005, the Fountain Theatre launched a yearlong development of a new play. The community of Fountain Theatre writers, beginning in January 2005, went into the homes and businesses of Little Armenia to talk with and interview the citizens who live here. Based on those interviews, and their own experiences, the three writers have created a fictional play that celebrates and reflects the lives of Armenians in Hollywood, what it means to be an immigrant in America, and how we define “home.”
