How does a community theatre get started?
...and then begin to thrive and grow
Community theatre happens because there is a perceived need for this opportunity within a community; there are people with a passion to pursue it; and then the community supports it.

Such has been the journey for the early life of The Lancaster Playhouse. Over three seasons it has been nurtured and supported. Dedicated volunteers believe in it. Just partway through its third season, TLP continues to find the right actors for its productions, volunteers who will work tirelessly behind the scenes, and audiences who come and support the productions.

The community continues to discover TLP. The TLP Facebook page now has 655 likes and followers, this blast is going out to 450 patrons, and each season our season subscription rate continues to grow. Many productions have been sellouts and many patrons were sorry to have missed a show.

But still, there are many more in the community who have never heard of TLP. To help remedy that awareness gap, board members participated in the most recent Lancaster Fairfield County Chamber of Commerce Trade Show. With an eye catching display table created by Chairman Jim Cummins, board members talked to many attendees about all the different TLP opportunities.

The winner of a pair of tickets to the upcoming production of The Odd Couple (the Female Version) was Michael Paul of .Accurate Heating & Cooling. He joins survey winner Izzack Beck who also won two tickets to this show.
