A new chapter for STC
Studio Players was created in 2012 as a unique alternative to the main stage productions at Sheboygan Theatre Company (STC).
Great theatre can come in all shapes and sizes, and not every show is effective as a large-scale production. With this in mind, Studio Players strives to offer diverse content that is thought-provoking, moving and entertaining. The Studio Players stage is a place where experienced and first-time actors, directors and producers can come together as teachers and students. Work containing adult themes or language, not ideal for STC’s family-friendly philosophy, can be presented without censorship.
Taking advantage of the experience and talent of some of STC’s most dedicated volunteers, Studio Players launched three sold-out productions in the Fall and Winter of 2012 and the Spring of 2013. Studio Players expanded its season to include a Summer production in 2013, creating a four-production season featuring two dramas and two comedies.
Since then, Studio Players has staged a variety of productions in venues around Sheboygan, and continues to engage audiences in distinctive and unexpected ways.
