NEW HORIZON COMMUNITY THEATER INC

Established in 1985 as "The Painted Rock Players," the group now known as New Horizon Community Theatre has presented over 400 performances of more than 100 shows to enthusiastic patrons in The Greater Valley Area. During that 26-year period, more than 1,600 people have participated as actors or crew members, including over 1,000 children and teenagers. The group is comprised of local volunteers and is open to anyone interested in being a part of the theater family.

From Broadway musicals to drama to children's shows to slapstick comedy, "The Players" have performed at Langdale Auditorium (both pre- and post-restoration), Springwood School, Lanett High School, an empty field (which is now part of West Point City Park), a parking garage, and most recently in our own theater in West Point.

The group is governed by a Board of Directors with day-to-day operations overseen by an Artistic Director. Each production is staged by volunteers - both onstage and backstage - with no paid actors or crew members.

Each season runs from July through June and consists of four productions.

New Horizon Theatre is open to anyone interested in being a part of the theater experience. We serve the local community- Lanett, Valley, Auburn, Opelika, Phenix City, LaFayette, Roanoke, Wadley, AL and the West Point, GA area.
