Introduction 
Dear Friends, Welcome
to the Sugar Creek Player’s website. We hope you've had the opportunity
to enjoy performances at our community theatre, the Vanity Theater. We’ve been quite busy since the holidays. In addition to rehearsing the upcoming shows, we have completed several important projects: • To improve safety, we have rebuilt the front staircase to the upper levels. This was funded by a grant from the Montgomery County Community Foundation (MCCF). • Teresa Slinker and a few others have repainted the public areas at the front of the theatre. That’s a lot of fine work, and we sure appreciate it. • We have built new dressing rooms in the backstage annex. Today’s cast will use these rooms for the very first time. Thanks to Paul Rusk for organizing this backstage improvement. Along with all this volunteer effort, it takes money to operate our not-for-profit theatre. Ticket sales provide only about half of that funding. The other half comes primarily from donations of one form or another. Almost every penny of our funding is provided by the citizens, businesses, and organizations of Montgomery County. We thank you for your support — past, present, and future. In exchange for your generous gifts, we try hard to provide entertaining productions. These shows create opportunities for the citizens of our community to participate in the live arts. Every year, we enable hundreds of people, mostly children, to develop their talents on our theatre’s stage. Our casts range from youngsters in front of an audience for the first time to folks in their 80’s and 90’s. We’re always looking for more people to join our shows as actors, stage crew, set-builders, backstage organizers, cookie bakers, and many other roles. Please let us know how you’d like to participate. On behalf of the entire Board of Directors, I thank you. Come enjoy our shows! Michael Swift, President, The Sugar Creek Players
