Salem Players

 Our mission: Through the medium of drama, in service to the congregation and community, Salem Players will endeavor to both entertain and explore the human condition in celebration and contemplation of God’s grace.  In its activities, Salem Players will use the benefits of common discipline and intergenerational fellowship as a channel for those whose artistic talent, varied skills, and good nature draws them to join in the creative challenge and redeeming joy of a theatrical production.

 All to the Glory of God!

Salem Players will hold their annual meeting /open house on Sunday January 14 at 2:00-3:00pm in Reformation Hall.

Call for Directors:  The Salem Players are seeking proposals from directors for our Fall 2024 production.  Our expected production dates are the weekends of October 18 and October 25.  We typically run evening productions on Fridays and Saturdays, with matinees on Sundays.

We are an all-volunteer organization, looking for a comedy or drama for an adult cast.  We have an approximately 100-seat theater.  We have experienced back-stage teams for stage management, production, sound and light production, and music.

  • Your name and contact information (i.e., phone number, email)
  • Brief description of your theater experience
  • Name of play, and who owns the rights
  • Description of cast
  • Set requirements

We will select from among the proposals 3-5 directors to pitch the proposal to the Play Selection Committee for more information.
