Meet the team behind the winner of the 2024 New Play Festival, Happy Endings Wedding Chapel! Dave Stein … Director Hannah Mitchell … Playwright Kendall Kiser-Gilmore … Stage Manager In a faded Las Vegas wedding chapel, an offbeat family receives an unexpected visit from a charming British lawyer on a messy legal mission. Throughout the week he unknowingly turns their world upside-down- especially Kathy, the bitter, divorced daughter who has grown weary of her uneventful life. Happy Endings Wedding Chapel is a sweetly sharp play that proves that even in the city of quick marriages and fast goodbyes, it’s never too late for a new beginning. Happy Endings Wedding Chapel runs August 12-17 in The Players Studio Blackbox. Come see this brand new play! 🎟️ ThePlayers.org | 941-365-2494 (fb)

It’s that time of year again. Happy Pride Month, everyone! This Pride Month, we celebrate every vibrant, courageous, and creative soul who brings their authentic self to the stage—and to our theatre family. We are endlessly grateful for the diverse individuals who make theatre what it is: bold, honest, and beautiful. Your voices, stories, and truths light up the stage and remind us that being ourselves is the most powerful performance of all. To our incredible LGBTQIA+ community: Thank you. Theatre wouldn’t be what it is without your artistry, your resilience, and your unapologetic authenticity. You make our stage richer, our stories deeper, and our community stronger.
