History:

Our story begins one day in January 1925 when Janet Scott gathered ogether a handful of eager amateurs to produce plays under the sponsorship of the Riverside Women's Club. Such an interest was shown by actors and audience alike that a move was made toward dependence and a more ambitious program. In September of that year twenty-seven charter members, led by Janet Scott and James Coleman Scott, met to elect officers and officially launch our organization, The Community Players.
