About Us:

From its earliest days, the Community Theatre Players (CTP), an independent not-for profit theatre group, has endeavored to bring the best of family entertainment to the area.  The members of CTP are a widely diverse group of people who came together to stage their first production, the musical Showboat, in the spring of 1972.  To give the organization focus, CTP dedicates their efforts to sponsoring a scholarship, awarded annually to an area high school graduate pursuing and education in the Arts.  This scholarship is given in memory of Chester B. McKirahan, one of the Lake Placid High School's most beloved teachers.  Since the inception of this scholarship, CTP has awarded nearly $40,000.00 to area students.
