Since 2001, Uptown Players has entertained hundreds of thousands of patrons, launched countless artistic careers, and become one of the nation's leading LGBTQ+ theatre companies. The company has produced more than 100 productions, presented numerous regional, national, and world premieres, earned dozens of critical accolades, and provided a welcoming artistic home for artists and audiences alike. Over the past twenty-five years, Uptown Players has built a reputation for producing groundbreaking work, including Texas premieres such as Pure Glitter, Silver Foxes, A Very Sordid Wedding, and Fun Home; United States premieres including Soho Cinders and Closer to Heaven; and acclaimed regional productions of titles such as The Boy From Oz and Next to Normal.

“When we founded Uptown Players twenty-five years ago, our goal was simple: tell great stories and create a place where everyone felt welcome,” said Executive Producers Craig Lynch and Jeff Rane. “Today, that mission remains unchanged. This season celebrates our past, but more importantly, it celebrates the artists, audiences, donors, volunteers, and community partners who have made these twenty-five years possible.”
