F
or more than five decades, the Opera House Players have provided high-quality entertainment to theater-lovers and they plan to continue to grow as the group renovates their new home in Enfield. Executive Director Susan Choquette said that with a $1.5 million state grant, the OHP board is embarking on a major renovation at 100 High St., a former church. “We are so excited to make 100 High St. our permanent home,” said Choquette. “Our renovation project has kicked off and we are well into the planning phase.” The group is working with architect Tom Douglas and Altieri for engineering services. They are also in the process of vetting theatrical lighting and sound consultants. “Our projected timeline is to break ground in late fall of this year, with an anticipated opening in August 2023,” Choquette said. “We are hoping to have our first production be the November 2023 show.” GOLOCALMAGAZINES.COM 29
