Here at The Naples Players, we have approached every decision regarding the safety and cleanliness of our theatre with the utmost of caution.

Based on a hilarious true story of a group of middle-aged girlfriends in Yorkshire, England who band together in a creative venture to raise money after Annie’s husband John suddenly passes away from cancer. The calendar takes the town by storm, raises money, eyebrows, and piques the press’ interest into an international sensation!
Oscar Wilde’s wickedly witty and touching comedy remains one of the most famous and popular in history. The story revolves around blackmail, political corruption and public and private honor in late 19th-century England, where “an ideal husband” must be above reproach in both spheres.
The Wedding Singer takes us back to a time when hair was big, greed was good, collars were up and a wedding singer might just be the coolest guy in the room. Based on the hit Adam Sandler movie, The Wedding Singer’s sparkling new score does for the ‘80s what Hairspray did for the ‘60s. Just say yes to the most romantic musical in twenty years.

All is going well for Della, the legendary baker. But then, her late-best-friend’s daughter comes home to ask her to make a cake for her upcoming wedding...to another woman. This emotional and deliciously funny play was created by Bekah Brunstetter (This is Us), and challenges people of every belief to engage in dialogue - even those who oppose you.
Mary Poppins flies before your eyes in this classic musical based on the much-loved children’s books by P. L. Travers and the 1964 Disney film of the same name. Julian Fellowes’ book blends the original stories with the acclaimed film to create a new and iconic stage adventure. Even grown-ups can learn a lesson or two from this magical yet practical nanny.

In this 1960’s farce, self-styled Parisian lothario Bernard, who has Italian, German, and American fiancées, each a beautiful airline hostess with frequent “layovers.” He keeps “one up, one down, and one pending” until unexpected schedule changes bring all three to Paris, and Bernard’s apartment, at the same time. This “don’t miss” comedy will have you in stitches.

This comedic romp is filled with unforgettable music and non-stop laughs. Nominated for 10 Tony Awards, the show follows Monty Navarro, the heir to a long-lost family fortune...if only he wasn’t 8th in line. The scene-stealing role of Monty stars one-actor that also plays all eight roles of the doomed relatives who meet their ends in creative and comedic conditions.
It’s never too late to make old new friends. In this delightful, laugh-a-minute comedy, four unique Southern women, all needing to escape the sameness of their day-to-day routines, are drawn together by fate—and an impromptu happy hour—and decide it’s high time to reclaim the enthusiasm for life they’ve lost through the years.

SEASON TICKET MAR 30 - APR 24 2022 This powerful play takes us inside the story of a quiet bed and breakfast turned into a secret women’s shelter in the early 1970s, before Roe v. Wade, before the Violence Against Women Act, and before women had places to turn in times of distress. Smart and exciting, it will leave you on the edge of your seat and with a renewed appreciation of a woman’s rights.
