2022 Chinook Regional One-Act play festival

Posted by / Uncategorized

“Hello people! Here is an opportunity if you are looking to flex your acting or directing muscles!  The Chinook One Act Festival in Lethbridge is a platform where amateur actors and directors can perform a short one act play (10-50 minutes).  There is a chance for private adjudication too.  This is perfect for first time directors to “cut your teeth”.  
Submissions are due April 15.  
The festival is the weekend of May 12 and 13 (same as our upcoming Taber Players show Spirit Level).  Why not do both!

A Request From The President

Posted by / News

Dear fellow Thespians,

Hi it’s Diane LJ here, your new president. Sitting beside me is our trusted star and beloved co-worker, Jocelyn who is now in the new role of VP

We are creating a list of every participant that we could recall/collect/invent from our shows over the last ten years or so! We are thinking this would be a good way to keep everyone informed to supplement the Taber Player’s’ Facebook postings, word of mouth, and Morse code.

Our current rehersal buildings have been sold. (The old Taber Library/Police Station), and there are a few points to note with that,

Website Refresh

Posted by / News, Website

While we have been extremely busy with our current production run of Don’t Dress for Dinner, some have been trying to get to this site for info, pictures and what not. Recently we have been having some growing pains of getting into the digital age with all of this newfangled techy things, and as many of you probably know, things go wrong. In trying to fix everything, well, we may have possibly had the chance to maybe break more than could be fixed, and with that we decided to take it down for a few days and rework everything (and make backups![this time]). There are still a few kinks to work out and things to set up, but that will happen in the background so we can get back online. We’re working on some new projects to come possibly by the next show but that’s all we’ll say for now. We hope you like things and thank you for your support of the Taber Players.
