Drama Club / Encore Players

This club is for those who love all aspects of the theater. This exciting and diverse group meets weekly on Tuesdays from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. in Room B. The group reads and discusses monologues and one-act plays by famous playwrights as well as original works by members.  We stage a free-admission Spring Show in May and a Fall Show in October at the Senior Center, and sometimes “take the show on the road” to perform for community groups.  Join other theater enthusiasts to explore the compelling experience of drama.  

The Encore Players is turning to the Senior Center talent pool for scripts for future dramatic presentations. The popular drama group plans to present, at its spring presentation, a program of plays written by Center members. In announcing the plans, Jean Newland said that the Encore Players feel that their Spring presentation will be more enjoyable if it projects local writing talent. “We know that there are many talented writers among us and we want to find them so we can feature their work for the enjoyment of other Senior Center members,” she said. Requirements for scripts to be presented are that they must be original and written by Senior Center members, must be short, five to six minutes, must require only basics props and, above all, must be humorous. Any member wishing to have a script considered should leave it in the drama folder on the desk in lobby. For additional information: Jean Newland – 971-4996.
