Theatre

This list is incomplete and may in places be incorrect. I unfortunately have no way of knowing all of the plays in which Mr. Von Dohlen performed. I have made inquiries to the various theatres listed on this page, asking if Mr. Von Dohlen performed in any other productions, but have made no progress. 

The following list is partially from the now-defunct Unofficial Lenny Von Dohlen Fan Page as it was the most detailed example of his stage resume. I have made additions and some amendments to the list. All other information was gleaned from newspaper articles, resumes, and Facebook posts. Please contact me if you know of additional titles not listed on this site. I will add photos and links to reviews in the future.
