Our Values

Our Vision

  • To work in a vibrant partnership with schools and colleges and universities, civic, business, social, and other artbased organizations to enrich the lives of the people in our community by expanding their exposure to and understanding of theater
  • To encourage active participation in theater beyond just a social experience
  • To support the vitality and growth of Union County by adding theater to an already rich array of cultural offerings

Our History

The Union County Playmakers formed its board of directors and elected officers on Nov. 13, 2013, under the umbrella of the Union County Community Arts Council.  We had varied first season and have increased offerings every year.  Our board and staff are primarily committed volunteers, who give of both time and talent.

Currently we are performing in the community through partnerships with schools, churches, Monroe Parks and Recreation and other organizations, as we search for our new home.  There has been theater in Union County off and on for decades, but we noe think we have the stability we need to remain an enduring organization deeply integrated into the community.
