Mission Statement
Stow Players strives to inspire and enrich
the lives of the people in the community.
Our mission is to provide a creative outlet
through a live theater experience that is artistic
and entertaining in a unique, intimate setting.
Our vision is a community,
now and over the next generations,
that supports and celebrates
live theatrical productions.
Core Values
The Core Values that are embedded into Stow Players include:
A strong relationship with the community of Stow and the larger community,
through a close relationship with the Department of Parks and Recreation.
A commitment to provide entertainment to current patrons
while providing innovative productions to stimulate interest in the northeast Ohio community.
Stow Players strives to include productions geared
to children as participants as well as attendees.
Stow Players will maintain an ethical and fiscally responsible
volunteer organization that is open, accepting, and diverse.
History
Stow Players is a non-profit community theater organization that has been in existence for over 70 years. Its very first performance space was in the basement of the old town hall. In 1980, in conjunction with the Stow Historical Society, Stow Players helped to fund the construction of the Heritage Barn for both organizations to share. The very first event held at the Heritage Barn was the 1981 Harvest Festival hosted by the Stow Historical Society. Stow Players debuted with a production of “Mame” a year later.

Stow Players is always looking for volunteers!
Here is just a sampling of what our volunteers do:
Greet and take tickets at SP performances
Serve concessions
Build sets
Lights and sound
Costumes and props
Plan and host members’ and fundraising events
Marketing and promotion
Give feedback on potential scripts
Stow Players Board of Directors is known as a “working board”, which means that all members perform staff, management and technical duties (in other words, the same tasks as SP’s other volunteers) in addition to the fiduciary (financial) and strategic responsibilities of governance. It is not necessary to have prior knowledge and experience about community theater to be a Board member. Currently, we are looking for people who can help us reach a larger audience, increase revenue and formulate a strategic plan for Stow Player’s growth and future.
If you are interested in becoming a volunteer or Board member, please let us know.
