Our History

In 2006 a couple of want to be actors started a rumor that the Millbrook area needed a community theatre. So they gathered great actors, directors, set and technical people together to form what is now known as the Millbrook Community Players, Inc. The Millbrook Community theatre was created to give all people from the surrounding communities an opportunity to showcase their talents and to bring family entertainment to the Millbrook community.
