With support from the California Arts Council, PALO ALTO PLAYERS-PENINSULA CENTER STAGE will enroll our Development Associate in the Leadership Palo Alto program. The program is run by the Palo Alto Chamber of Commerce to accelerate leaders through a 9-month immersion program. Through engagement with local, regional, and global issues and interactions with key stakeholders, our Development Associate’s participation will increase our ability to champion the performing arts in our communities.
Palo Alto Players has been continuously providing quality performing arts programming in Palo Alto since 1931. Based at the Lucie Stern Theater, built for the Players in 1933, Palo Alto Players presents a diverse season of five mainstage plays and musicals featuring all local, community talent. The five mainstage productions, each running 11 performances over three weeks, cover a wide spectrum of themes and styles, including contemporary works, musicals, and classic plays. Audiences and participants come from all over the Bay Area to be a part of Palo Alto Players productions. Palo Alto Players’s productions are supplemented by activities that enhance audience engagement, increase access, and promote community outreach.
