Few people realize that our local community theatre, The Wimberley Players, is the oldest nonprofit organization in Wimberley. Since 1979, the theatre has been entertaining Central Texas audiences continuously with high quality, award winning stage productions including mysteries, dramas, comedies, period pieces, musicals and special holiday shows.
Now in its 46th year, the Players is continuing that tradition and expanding its offerings to include original productions, such as the acclaimed Hill Country Home Companion that premiered in December 2023; musical performances offered in partnership with other organizations such as WimberleyArts; play readings; and classes on such topics as auditioning. We are very excited about the new Improv program we plan to introduce in 2025.
On Sunday, January 26, from 2 to 4 p.m., the Players will be holding its Annual Meeting at the Playhouse, at 450 Old Kyle Road in Wimberley. All members of the Players and others interested in the theatre are invited to attend.
In addition to reporting on the highlights of 2024, providing a forward look to 2025, and voting on the Board of Directors, we will offer door prizes, provide tasty afternoon snacks and a repeat performance of one of the sketches from the highly successful Hill Country Home Companion. We are committed to making the event as fun as it is informative. There will be opportunities to purchase season tickets and to learn about volunteer opportunities.
The Wimberley Players has been an important community asset for nearly half a century. Few towns of our size anywhere can claim such an established and valuable resource. Come out January 26 and show your support for this rare gem.
If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact us at 512 8470575.
Sincerely, Elaine H. Cardenas, MBA, PhD President, Board of Directors The Wimberley Players
