For almost 35 years, the Out of the Woodwork Players have provided  live theatre to local audiences at the  historic Town Hall Theatre as well as performance and back stage opportunities for community members young and old. OWP is a not-for-profit 501(c)3 organization whose funds support future theatre projects.

This community theatre group offers cultural experiences in comedy, drama, musical theatre, and poetry for patrons, performers, and production workers. Please see “OWP History” to read more about the group’s activities and to view a list of productions over the last 34 years! In addition to staged plays and musicals, OWP has hosted poetry events and benefits, and now hosts online events as well on our Facebook page (Out of the Woodwork Players Inc.) including an annual April celebration of National Poetry Month.

Many directors, musicians, and multiple performers have come "out of the woodwork" to share their time and talents for these productions. In turn, OWP has contributed to community efforts  such as playground projects, local history celebrations, disaster relief, cancer patient support, the performing arts shell at General Clinton Park, and, of course, ongoing improvements to the Bainbridge Town Hall Theatre.

The group awards an annual scholarship to a graduating high school senior who has worked with the group and is continuing on in theatre arts. Applications are posted on our Facebook page, or those interested may email us for information.
We invite you to join us as an actor, behind-the-scenes worker, or prospective board member. Email owptheatre@yahoo.com or join us on Facebook.
