The Players were formed in the spring of 1975 as an outgrowth of the Stanly County Arts Council. Thirty-four charter members set out to establish a vehicle that would provide local citizens an opportunity to perform on stage while also exposing Stanly County to quality theatrical entertainment.
A 501-c(3) non-profit organization, the Uwharrie Players depend on support from individuals, businesses, and grants to fund their operating expenses. Membership in the organization is open to anyone wishing to join. The organization is unique in that every season of productions is chosen by a vote of the membership. A volunteer Board of Directors serves as the governing body of the organization.
The theatre’s success over the years has been made because of its unwavering commitment to artistic excellence and to the financial support of those who believe in our work.
