Two River Players: Community Reading Series

WATCH, SHARE & ENGAGE
We miss seeing you at the theater, enjoying our productions together. Until then, we are keeping the love of theater going through curated digital content to share with you all!
We believe that the essence of theater is democratic: it invites us to encounter, consider and perhaps adopt other points of view, if only for a brief time in a darkened theater. We aspire to build an environment in which artists, audiences, employees, and Board members from different backgrounds and experiences together form an institution that is equitable, diverse, and inclusive.
PAVE THE PLAZA
Whether you are treating yourself, gifting to a friend or remembering a loved one, an engraved paver on the Two River Theater plaza is a gift that supports the arts and beautifies or community.
