The Naples Players builds community through exceptional access to the power of theatre.
We envision TNP as a cultural hub that leads a shift in the national perception of how theatres can impact their communities.

As we look back on the 2023-2024 season, it’s impossible not to feel a deep sense of pride and gratitude. This season wasn’t just about theatre—it was about community, resiliency, and unwavering support. While our building underwent its much anticipated renovation, The Naples Players carried on in true theatrical fashion, continuing to bring exceptional productions to the stage, even off-site.
I believe in the power of theatre to unite people, and this season proved just that. The spirit of TNP isn’t confined to any one location—it’s woven into the fabric of our community. From our dedicated volunteers who logged more than 50,000 hours of work—from moving sets and sewing costumes to performing on makeshift stages—to our patrons, donors, and community members, you’ve all been a vital part of this journey. Your steadfast support, encouragement, and enthusiasm allowed us to thrive and to definitively prove that no matter where we perform, the spirit of TNP shines through.
In this year’s annual impact report we celebrate the success of our programs and productions, and the strength of our community. Thank you for believing in us and for continuing to be a part of The Naples Players family. Your impact can be clearly seen on the following pages.
With gratitude,

During Season 70, The Naples Players demonstrated that excellence in theatre knows no boundaries. Despite being off-site due to our extensive $22 million building renovations, we continued to deliver the Broadway-caliber productions our community has come to expect, without ever compromising on quality. Every
show featured incredible local talent, reaffirming our commitment to the vibrant arts scene in Naples. Through resilience and creativity, Season 70 became a shining example of how we adapt, innovate, and thrive—regardless of the stage we stand on.
SEASON 70 PRESENTED BY:
I love that the productions are local and the same, if not better, than a Broadway production!

At TNP, our adult education program not only focuses on theatre and tech, but also on incorporating elements that allow participants to take on new roles within the organization as volunteers. From stage management classes to introductory dance classes, our programs offer adults a chance to connect, grow, and learn in a welcoming environment all while engaging in the joy of theatre.
Your improv classes and exercises helped me to navigate my social anxiety tendencies and interpersonal selfconsciousness and engage with others without anxiety or fear of judgment.

Arts Access programs are dedicated to making the theatre experience inclusive and available to all members of our community. From sensory-friendly performances to adaptive theatre programs for individuals with limitations or disabilities, we ensure that everyone has the opportunity to engage with the arts. These programs break down barriers,
offering participants a chance to explore their creativity, build confidence, and experience the transformative power of theatre. By prioritizing accessibility, we create a welcoming environment where the arts can be enjoyed and appreciated by everyone.

- M.S., ARTS ACCESS PARTICIPANT AT DAVID LAWRENCE CENTERS
During the 2023-2024 season, The Naples Players’ incredible volunteers took “the show must go on” to a whole new level! With our theater under renovation, our volunteers were a crucial part of packing up the entire operation and moving it off-site. They continued performing, designing sets, sewing costumes, and pulling off high-caliber shows in temporary spaces all season long. And when it was time to come home, they moved everything back to 5th Avenue South, all with a smile! Logging over 50,000 hours, these superstar volunteers proved that no matter the challenge, nothing can stop our TNP family of dedicated volunteers!
