A Players Place - The Community Player's Studio
The Studio was designed and built by the Players to meet the specific needs of our organization. The facilities include:
- rehearsal room, conforming to the dimensions of the City Auditorium and Anniccharico stages
- workshop, large enough to allow simultaneous construction of two two-story sets
- office/library
- meeting room
- costume building room
- prop/furniture storage room
- miscellaneous strorage areas
- kitchen
Use of the Studio (both for Players activities and by outside organizations) must be arranged in advance. To reserve time at the Studio please contact Wayland Bunnell.
The Studio Resurrection
At 11:18 am on Februay 8, 2008, the roof of the workshop portion of the Players Studio collapsed. Thankfully no one was in the Studio at the time, but the set of our Feb 14-16, 2008, production of The Odd Couple -- two months in the making -- was destroyed, and most of the show's props were lost.
Incredibly, the set was rebuilt, props were re-gathered or remade, and the Players production The Odd Couple when on as scheduled. Our May 2008 production of The Full Monty was postponed to our 2008-09 season and we replaced The Full Monty with The Fantastiks, using borrowed rehersal space and taking advanatage of the shows minimal set design. The show was a success and in July of 2008 the studio re-opened to begin our 81st season.
Thanks to all who participated in resurrecting our studio!
