The Players Theatre Company - Where Every Story Takes Center Stage

The Players Theatre Company began in 1967 as The Little Theatre of Conroe, producing shows on the Conroe High School stage and later moving into a former plumbing supply store at the corner of Galveston and Robertson Streets. In 1979, The Players cleaned and restored The Crighton Theatre, where we operated for nearly 30 years as The Crighton Players. Then in 2008, we moved into our current residence at The Owen Theatre. A 501c3 non-profit, The Players offers six or seven productions each year utilizing the remarkable pool of volunteer talent in our area.
