Shotgun Players is a company of artists determined to create bold, relevant, affordable theater that inspires and challenges audiences and artists alike to re-examine our lives, our community, and the ever-changing world around us.

Started in 1992 with ten actors and a bucket of black paint, we have always strived for the same core values we believe in today: artistic excellence, social relevance, and community engagement.

Nothing excites us more than taking on projects that other companies might deem too expensive, unwieldy, or just plain impossible. As a result, audience and industry members alike have come to expect astonishing theater from Shotgun Players.
