Welcome to the new home of the Orange Players!

Welcome to the online home of the Orange Players, one of Connecticut’s longest continuously-run community theater groups.  The Orange Players is an organization dedicated to encouraging active participation in the production and performance of live theater and encouraging attendance of the productions.  The Orange Players is committed to, and pleased to, support artistic expression in our community. We are a diverse group of people who are united in our love for live theater and our passion to keep it available to everyone who wishes to participate; we enthusiastically welcome everyone from the community who wishes to take part.  In addition to performing, we have opportunities for directors, stage crew, production crew, musicians and, of course, audience members.  If you can hold a paint brush, type up a program or fill a chair in our auditorium then we have a spot for you. 

 

We typically hold General Membership meetings three times yearly (fall, winter and spring) which are open to all who wish to attend.  These are advertised in the local papers as well as posted here on our website.  Our Executive Board, comprised of volunteers who handle the business aspects of running our organization, meets monthly and invites any interested members to attend and share ideas or comments. 

 

In addition to our productions, we also periodically organize get-togethers, fundraisers and participate in community events to both publicize the Orange Players and to have an opportunity to have fun together.  We are committed to bringing professional-quality amateur theater to our region but we are also equally committed to having fun while doing it.

 

Upcoming dates to mark in your calendar:

JANUARY 2012 GENERAL MEETING CANCELED.  The holidays have been a busy time for all of us, but especially so for the cast and crew of Picking Up Cues! The Orange Players cabaret is currently in rehearsal. Since the performance dates of January 20th and 21st are such a short time away, The Orange Players Winter General Membership Meeting,  originally scheduled for January 11th, has been canceled so those members participating in and supporting the efforts of the show may continue to focus on the production.  We’ll keep you posted on the scheduling of our next General Membership Meeting.  See you at the show!!!
   
For additional details on these events please continue to read through our website. 

If you would like more information about our group or have an interest in joining us, please contact us using our email contact form or telephone number posted here on our website.  We look forward to meeting you!
