In 2010, it was honored as one of only 10 theaters in the country to receive a National Theatre Company grant from the American Theatre Wing, founder of the Tony Awards. You won't stop laughing when you watch an 1812 performance in the 2012/2013 season at the Plays and Players Theater in Philadelphia. Not valid on Saturdays, opening night, or any one night event.
