History and Mission

Encore Theatre Company was incorporated as a non profit (501 (C) (3) organization in October of 1988 and produced its first play in February of 1988. Organized in response to a request from the American Red Cross to produce a dinner theatre fun-raiser, Encore’s first production, I Do! I Do! was staged first as a dinner theatre production at the Raintree (now Ramkota) Inn, and later at the Hensel Phelps Theatre as part of the UCCC Center Lights Up opening ceremonies. Directed by Marilyn Price, choreographed by Paula Ware, and starring Jill Droegemueller and Daniel Stoffler, this small, but dedicated group became Encore’s founding board members.

Since 1988, Encore has produced 40 shows, using local talent. Our mission is to provide an ongoing service to the community by making opportunities available to area residents for participation in all aspects of theatrical productions, including the opportunity to attend high quality productions, featuring local talent.
