The
Pennington Players
PLAYING AROUND SINCE 1951
The Players have been entertaining local audiences since
1951. In 1964, we became the first group ever to perform at the Washington
Crossing State Park Open Air Theatre with our production of George Bernard
Shaw's The Devil's Disciple. The following year, we performed our first
musical, Plain and Fancy, which
was also the first musical to appear at the OAT.

Based on the 1975 novel by E. L. Doctorow, RAGTIME tells the story of
three groups in America in the beginning of the1900's, represented by Coalhouse
Walker Jr., a Harlem musician;
Mother, the matriarch of a WASP family in New Rochelle, NY; and Tateh, a Latvian Jewish
immigrant. Historical figures such
as Harry Houdini, Evelyn Nesbit, Booker T. Washington, J. P. Morgan, Henry
Ford, Admiral Peary, Matthew
Henson, and Emma Goldman also appear. The music includes marches, cakewalks,
gospel and ragtime.

Also, if you have not yet heard, you can support the Pennington Players
by shopping on-line at
iGive.com. Basically, when you
register at iGive.com and designate your donation organization as Pennington
Players (it's already on the list!), anytime you order
anything on-line by passing through iGive.com to visit your favorite online retailers (LLBean,
Macy's, Barnes & Nobles, j.crew, Lands End, Best Buy), a portion of your
order will go towards the Players. You do not pay extra for this
service and each store donates a different share of their proceeds. All you need
to do is go visit iGive.com first and
then, through that website, go to your favorite on-line store. It's really easy!
We know it may sound minimal, but every little bit helps and it's really simple
to
do!
