Overview
The TCAN Players, a dedicated troupe of volunteer amateur actors, directors, playwrights, and crew, have been an integral part of The Center for Arts in Natick since its early days. Formed in the late 1990s to bring live theater to a growing arts community, the TCAN Players initially staged works by local and emerging playwrights, honing their craft and building a loyal following. In 2001, they gained widespread recognition with their acclaimed production of Twelve Angry Men by Reginald Rose, solidifying their reputation. Since then, the TCAN Players have become a leading community theater company in the MetroWest Boston area, known for their high-quality productions and commitment to enriching the local arts scene.
Under the direction of a volunteer Board, the Players have produced a variety of high-quality theatrical vehicles at TCAN ranging from outrageous comedies such as Run for Your Wife and Funny Money, to vibrant musicals including Avenue Q and The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, to the high drama of Doubt and the award-winning A Piece of My Heart.
Additional Information
The Players attract cast, crew, producers and directors from the entire greater Boston area. In a supportive atmosphere of encouragement, talent from within the community works to advance the growth of dramatic arts while striving for excellence. Productions are staged two to three times a year. Join us – on stage or somewhere behind the scenes – perhaps both. No previous theater experience is necessary, just a love of dramatic arts and a willingness to learn. Watch for audition notices and details about upcoming shows.
