A graceful examination of a collision of cultures. A comedy about the hilarious eccentricities of Midwestern family life. A big Broadway musical where lonely hearts fall in love. A play about an artist's responsibility for his art with some of the most beautiful music in the world. After 86 years, the 2019 season at the Peterborough Players promises to continue their tradition of producing delightful, surprising, thought-provoking professional theatre at the highest level. In addition, this year boasts an entire season of American playwrights.
Local actress Carolyn Michel recently won the 'Best Actress of the Year' award in Aosta, Italy at the Oniros Film Awards. Michel was recognized for her portrayal of 'Tanya,' a hard-drinking, smoking, Russian Cossack stunt rider in the film 'Katia.'
The play hopefully titled THE BEST TEN MINUTES EVER turned out to be the judges' pick for best script at Theatre Odyssey's Twelfth Annual Ten-Minute Play Festival, held this past weekend May 4-6 at the Asolo Theatre.
?The Peterborough Players Professional Theatre Company is proud to open its 2016 Summer Season with the play that won the 1988 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, Alfred Uhry's Driving Miss Daisy.

In its initial run, Driving Miss Daisy was an Off-Broadway success and became an Academy Award-winning film.
