WITH HEAVY HEARTS…

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Darren Adler on July 31, 2026. Darren was a dear friend and dedicated employee of ARIEL Theatrical for more than 30 years. He brought a kind, calming presence to the “mic line” and intentionally scheduled his life so that he would be available for tech weeks and performances at ARIEL. Making time for the young casts at ARIEL was not only a priority, it was a source of joy in Darren’s life. Darren will be fondly remembered and missed by all. The Adler family has announced that a service for Darren will be held on Friday, August 7 at 10 am, 255 Alvin Drive, Salinas. All are invited.
