The Norris Theatrein Palos Verdes opened in 1983 with a week of performances and has been going strong ever since. It is located at 27570 Crossfield Drive, Rolling Hills Estates, CA 90274 (310-544-0403). The 450 seat theatre has tiered seating offering every seat a great view of the stage. I have enjoyed watching plays, musical events, preschool programs, ballets, etc. In addition to offering high quality productions throughout the year, the theatre also rents its facilities and hosts community events. The Norris Theatre is a non-profit organization.
The Norris Pavilionwhich is across the street (upper right) hosts theatre and dance classes and is available for rental for special events. I have attended several parties at the Norris Pavilion and can attest to its wonderful ambiance.
The Upstairs Gallery at the Norris is located on the second level of the theatre and features local artists and members of the Palos Verdes Art Center. The Gallery is available for viewing at every performance and during Box Office hours.
The Box Office is open Tuesday through Saturday from noon to 6:00 p.m and Sunday from noon to 4:00 p.m. It is also open one hour before all performances. Click here for an event schedule.
