Welcome
to The Wilton Playshop
Wilton's Live Community Theatre!
Since 1937 the mission of the Wilton
Playshop has been to further the performing arts by
providing quality live Theatre to the greater Wilton area, and by
doing so,
provide an educational and growing experience for all involved.

The
2008-2009 Season

The Wilton Playshop has been a
part of Wilton's cultural cornucopia for nearly 70 years, making
it one of the longest continuously running community theatres
in the northeast (in fact according to an article published in
1968, the 14th oldest community theatre in the country!). The
Playshop caters to a wide variety of theatrical tastes with up
to five major productions during its season which runs from October
to August.
The Playshop is staffed entirely by volunteers and
welcomes participation by new members.
The Wilton Playshop is a volunteer organization with
a governing Board of Directors. There are generally three major
productions presented each year, special events are offered such
as membership parties, youth productions, and casino and cabaret
nights.
As a community-oriented
endeavor, The Playshop is committed to developing new directors
and playwrights as a means of preserving this important art form.
Backstage involvement includes producing, directing, stage management,
light and sound engineering, scenic design, properties, costumes,
set construction, and a myriad of other jobs that constitute an
energetic community theater. We encourage active participation and
we always welcome new faces. No experience is necessary -- only
desire and interest!
At the intermission of each performance, audience
members are invited into the Green Room for refreshments. Playshop
members welcome the opportunity to greet you and speak with anyone
interested in getting involved, either on stage or off. Please feel
free to make yourself at home! Our Playshop family invites you to
join in the excitement that is The Wilton Playshop.
