President’s Message 2025

“Every community needs a little theater ---City Park Players is YOURS, CENLA!”

Welcome!

Thank you for your support of Cenla’s original community theater, providing quality productions to our community since 1938.

Thank you for your continued support of Cenla’s original community theater, bringing quality productions to our community since 1938.

As we kick off another exciting season in 2025, I am filled with gratitude and anticipation. Our “little theatre” continues to be a beacon of artistic expression and community spirit, and it’s an honor to represent this incredibly talented group of individuals.

We’re thrilled to announce that 2025 Season Tickets are available here at cpptheatre.com! Our flexible “ANYTIME” tickets give you the freedom to experience the season however you’d like—whether it’s one show with a group of friends or multiple performances with a loved one. The choice is yours! Each 2025 Season Ticket can be used at any of our five regularly-scheduled productions throughout the year.

Your support means the world to us. Ticket sales make up about 50% of our budget, so we deeply appreciate the generosity of our sponsors, underwriters, and donors. These contributions enable us to continue offering diverse and exciting programming to our community. Producing each show comes with significant costs, and your patronage helps us cover these expenses. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, contributions are tax-deductible.

As we begin this season, let’s celebrate the power of community. By supporting one another, we continue to use the arts to bring people together. Whether you’re an actor, volunteer, donor, or audience member, you are a vital part of our theatre’s success. If you’d like to join the CPP family, please reach out to us at cityparkplayers@gmail.com.

At CPP, we believe it takes a community to make a production come to life, and we’re so grateful you’re part of our journey. I look forward to seeing you in the audience, backstage, or in the spotlight. Together, let’s create, inspire, and make lasting memories this season!
