From The Producing Artistic Director
Welcome to the Players Guild Theatre at Kent State University at Stark and our 93rd season!
Certainly the world has changed a lot since our founding in 1932. One thing that hasn't changed, our dedication to providing a home for artists and actors to share their talents with our community in Stark County. It is a proud history of quality live theatre presented by a passionate team of people who love the art form. But maintaining the long tradition, (we're one of the oldest, continuously operating theaters in the nation), comes with many challenges, and those challenges have only increased over the past few years. Rising costs, funding cuts for the arts and the lingering effects of the pandemic have stretched us in ways we've never known. However, what I have come to love about this community, is its ability to rally when called upon. With that said, I am asking for your help, if you would take just a moment to invite two people to join you at our next production - folks who have either never attended a Guild production, or haven’t attended in a long time - we could secure the future of this great institution, insuring that live theatre remains a vital part of our community!
As I have said so many times, theatre does not exist without an audience, and we can't exist without you! Thank you for supporting us by being here tonight!
Enjoy the show!
