Our Mission
"To provide the opportunity for individual adult members of the Burns Park community to become involved in the various aspects of the performing arts within a pleasant social atmosphere. To generate funds for the benefit of the Burns Park Elementary School and selected school-related (outside of Burns Park) organizations."
About Us
The Burns Park Players was formed in 1984 by a small group of parents looking for a way to raise money to send sixth graders (then in elementary school) to camp. Since that time, the Players has grown into an active community theater company; one that has maintained its commitment to family-oriented musical productions as well as to support of arts-related activities in local schools. Since 1992, the Players has donated over $175,000 to a variety of arts-related programs in the school district. Since 1998, the Burns Park Players has been a Federally- recognized 501 (c) (3) tax-exempt organization.
According to its by-laws, the Players consists of adult members (parents, teachers, other residents) who live in the Burns Park School community (as defined by the boundaries of the school attendance area) and who join together to produce one musical show each year. The elementary school age children (grades one through five) of Players members may appear in the musical production. Also according to its by-laws, the Players must donate their proceeds to school or school district needs.
