72nd Season | The Arlington Players

Disney's Newsies

Sep 17 - Oct 02, 2022

A musical centered around activism, join us as we stop the presses and hear the rallying cry to create, affect, and promote change. A story of student voice and the power of youth, follow us as we take you through a turn-of-the-century New York City, where media bigwigs are fighting against youthful groups that make the distribution of their newspapers possible. Come see the amount of power that the collective voice of youth activism had in 1899, and judge how much power that collective voice has in our society today. **Please note that the performance on Sunday, October 2nd will have Sign Language Interpretation**

Almost, Maine

Feb 04 - 19, 2023

Just in time for Valentine’s Day, join us for a series of vignettes that revolve around the theme of love. Taking place in an almost-town called Almost, Maine, we will show you different, but important, facet of love in each scene: falling into it, falling out of it, muddling through it, and discovering it, to name a few. We hope that you will join us in this beautiful study of the human heart and allow us to dazzle you with TAP’s version of the Northern Lights. **Please note that the performance on Saturday, February 11 will have Sign Language Interpretation**

TAP/LTA Night of One Acts - Canceled

Night of One Acts Canceled At our monthly Board meeting on March 28th, 2023, TAP made the difficult choice not to produce the Night of One Acts this year. In short, we do not currently have the resources available to dedicate the time and effort necessary to mount the production these plays deserve, and we did not feel that it would be fair to bring in a team of people to produce a show that couldn't receive our full attention; especially for those who would be working with TAP for the first time. The TAP Board is so thankful to the directors & production team members that were interested in being involved with one of these wonderful plays this year, and we are very hopeful that, next year, we will be able to resume this novel collaboration with LTA! As the Board prepares to close out this season and shift our focus to our upcoming 73rd season, please let us know if you are interested in getting involved by reaching out to our Executive Producer, Jasmine Jones, at execprod@thearlingtonplayers.org. We'll be putting up Into the Woods (Fall 2023), directed by Krissy McGregor, Anton in Show Business (Winter 2024), directed by Hilary Adams, and The Prom (Spring 2024), directed by Joanna Henry. We truly hope this news does not dissuade you from working with TAP in the future, so please do not hesitate to reach out to our Executive Producer (e-mail above) with any questions or concerns. Thank you all for your support of our theatre community! Sincerely, The Arlington Players Board of Directors

In collaboration with the Little Theatre of Alexandria (LTA)
