Past Shows

The Island Players (TIP) is an all volunteer community theater, registered as a non-profit, 501 (c) (3) corporation with the state of Georgia.  It is governed and managed by an elected Board of Directors.  Each elected director serves for a 3 year term.  TIP presents 4 main stage productions, and one Young People's Summer Workshop (YPSW), each year.   TIP season members vote for the 4 main stage productions by way of a mailed ballot sent to each member.  One of the main stage productions may be selected by the board of directors as a Director's choice.  The Director's choice must meet certain criteria established in TIP corporate by-laws.  The Island Players is funded through season ticket memberships, box office receipts, and corporate and private sector donations and sponsorships.

The Young People's Summer Workshop (YPSW) has been an  Island Players production since 1975.  Each year this show attracts anywhere from 60 to 80 children, ages 8 and up.   The YPSW introduces our local children to a wonderful theater experience, teaching them various aspects of the theater.  Not only do the children have a great deal of fun, and meet other local children to share the theater experience with, but they learn about stage etiquette and how to be a responsible team participant.  Many of our children, who started their stage experience with the YPSW, have pursued their love of theater through high school and community drama clubs; and many have gone on to college for Theater/Drama degrees and are now working at various theaters nationwide.
