Luna Stage was founded in 1992 and became an Equity Theater in 1995. For 18 years, the company made its home in Montclair, NJ, first in a small space on Walnut Street and later in a larger facility on Bloomfield Avenue. In the fall of 2010, Luna moved to a new home in West Orange, in the heart of the Valley Arts District. The new facility features a 99-seat black box theatre and a 40-seat studio theatre, as well as a rehearsal studio, an art gallery, and administrative offices. In addition to mainstage presentations of plays ranging from John Henry Redwood’s The Old Settler to Quiara Alegria Hudes’s Eliot: A Soldier’s Fugue to Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman, the company offers a reading series of new works, along with benefit performances and other special events.
