When San Diego Repertory Theatre was struggling during the Great Recession in 2008 and lost its managing director, board member Larry Alldredge agreed to volunteer in the position until it was filled. Thirteen years later, he’s still there and still working without a salary. But today, he has announced plans to retire.
An executive search firm has been hired to conduct a national search for his replacement, which could take three to six months. Alldredge will continue to serve until his successor arrives. He said that the pandemic though devastating for artists and the company’s ticket sales has been a boon for donations, grants and COVID stimulus funds to pay the staff. It also gave the company time to do the strategic planning necessary for a change at the helm.

Sam Woodhouse is the Artistic Director of San Diego Repertory Theatre.
In the late spring of 2020, the perfect storm hit our country and the San Diego REP family: an unpredictable and deadly pandemic; a ferocious call for racial equity and justice on the streets of America; and a lockdown that led to the loss of 80 percent of our ticket income.
This trio of reckonings threatened our ability to make the art that defines us.
We faced a choice: We could stop producing art, lay off our artists and staff, become silent, and wait
; or we could respond to the storm by leaning into the fierce winds, produce theater and address the calls for social justice.
