The Catskill Community Players A not-for-profit community theater group founded in 1975, based in Worcester, NY. Performances are given at the historic Wieting Theatre, in Worcester, NY.

Its
purpose is to provide and promote high quality live
theater in communities throughout upstate New York. The Catskill Community Players is a not-for-profit community theater group founded in 1974 with the purpose of "promoting and presenting theater in the community". In 2016, the Catskill Community Players merged with Catskill Theatre Works, in a restructuring process, and attained non-profit status. The group typically produces two shows per year: recently mostly comedies and mysteries. Over its 48 year history, other performance venues included South Kortright Central School's Harbaugh Hall, Stamford Central School, the Farrell Hall Little Theatre on the campus of SUNY Delhi, Delaware Academy, and Foothills Performing Arts Center. A complete listing of all the plays produced through the years by CCP can be found at www.catskillplayers.org. CCP operates under the direction of a board and follows non-profit bylaws. We draw from a vibrant theatre community of local actors, and talented directors & volunteer crew, which is constantly expanding. Auditions are open to anyone at all levels of experience. We always need help with sets, lighting, costumes, painting, ushering, sound, and all aspects of production! There is an opportunity to join as a member of CCP, and membership is drawn from the communities of Oneonta, Cooperstown, Worcester, Schenevus, South Kortright, Hobart, Stamford, Jefferson, Delhi, Franklin, and surrounding areas.
