Welcome to The Maumelle Players...
When I
founded The Maumelle Players as a community theatre group in the
early summer of 2005, I had three main and simple objectives:
-
create awareness for the arts in all its forms,
-
raise
funds for worthy causes, and
-
have
great fun doing it!
With the
enthusiasm and experience of the original charter members: Eloise
Kalb, Victor and Pam Werner, Ken and BJ Saunders, Samia Frangieh,
Bill and Janelle Rieske, Horace and Kay Morgan, the Maumelle
Players were destined to be successful.
All our
previous productions: “The Unexpected Guest,” “Tom Sawyer, The
Musical,” “Spider’s Web” and our interactive dinner theatre “A
Wedding to Kill For!,” Bingi Spells Murder and Eclipsed, were
enthusiastically received by Maumelle residents. The tremendous
support we experienced was beyond any expectations we could have
wished for.
The
Maumelle Players hope to create a stronger appreciation of the arts
in Maumelle by producing at least two plays each year. In the near
future, The Maumelle Players will also start sponsoring concerts,
recitals and other art-related events. If you wish to
participate in our productions/projects, then we would like to hear
from you. We invite you to join The Maumelle Players... there
are no membership fees. All we need is your enthusiasm, talent
and participation in our efforts to expand awareness of the arts in
Maumelle.
The
Maumelle Players’ goal, together with sister organizations, such as
The Maumelle Arts Council and the Maumelle Children’s Community
Theatre share the common interest of having a permanent Center for
the Arts in Maumelle. A Center where our youth can learn and express
their artistic talents. To have an Art Center for Maumelle Residents
to enjoy its year-round programs.

On behalf
of The Maumelle Players, I would like to extend our gratitude and
thanks to all the wonderful volunteers whose enthusiasm for what we
do is exemplary and a source of inspiration. Their strong commitment
to the arts in general and to the performing arts in particular will
help us attain our goal for a permanent home for the arts in
Maumelle. Our productions could not have been achieved without them.
