The Towne Players was formed in 1998 as a means of increasing the awareness of the performing arts in
Garner and
Wake County. Run by a governing board made up of citizens from the Garner, North Carolina and greater Triangle area, the Towne Players produce three or four theatrical plays each year and offer theatre classes for children. As a community theatre, they depend upon many people who enjoy the beauty and sense of community that an organization can bring.
A not-for-profit organization, their mission is to produce quality theatre by showcasing local talent while simultaneously working with their sister civic, arts, and religious groups to enrich and improve community involvement with the performing arts. The Towne Players is supported by grants from United Arts and encourages anyone with an interest in theatre to participate, whether on stage or behind the scenes.
