DCP Theatre

My husband and I saw the musical «Working» at DCP last night and really enjoyed it. The music is by Stephen Schwartz («Godspell», «Pippin») and James Taylor, among others, based on a book by Studs Terkel. The singers and actors were very talented and the direction was quite tight — get there if you can — the production is until August 1, 2015. Congrats to all the volunteers for a terrific performance. We sat in the stadium seats which were quite comfortable.

This community theater is a gem! Nestled in the countryside, this homegrown center for great entertainment provides a comfortable, friendly and pleasant place for just about anyone interested in seeing real talent perform.
It’s been in existence for over half a century providing an opportunity for local people to see quality dramas, comedies and musicals, some for mature audiences and others for kids and families. And while most of the performers are amateurs, the presentations aren’t. Everyone involved in the productions at DCP, from the actors and directors through the stage hands and ushers present and perform as well as any ‘professional.‘
The joy of viewing neighbors and friends –from seniors to near toddlers — sing, dance and act their hearts out on this stage is a treat beyond measure.
The actual building has recently been refurbished with all the work done by volunteers. If this us not a gift of love to the community, I can’t imagine what is.
The DCP website has the performance schedule. Opening nights are particularly nice with wine and treats. Check this jewel in the woods out.

Have been going to dcp theatre since 2008. Became a member and volunteer participant in 2009. It’s community theatre at it’s best. It’s also the local home of DramaKIds International. I’ve experienced the benefits of it’s long standing history and also it’s more recent phenomenal growth. Sure it started out in humble fixings over 60 years ago but it’s been recently renovated and renewed with over 500 hours of volunteer labor. apparently I’m not the only one with a love for this organization… but don’t take my word for it… come and see for yourself. It’s live theatre… anything can happen! The Norristown Times Herald called it «The Jewel in the Woods». Find out why.
