Gamut Theatre Group

Harrisburg, PA, US • 20 - 49 Employees
Arts and Crafts

Gamut Theatre Group uses what has come to be known as the actor/manager model. A structure borrowed from Shakespeare's company over 400 years ago, our actors also fulfill various administrative and technical occupations during the day that make our organization run. They build sets, write grants, stitch costumes, run the box office, advertise, teach classes, and even clean the bathrooms. Without them, Gamut would not be here today.Our small full-time company juggles professional acting engagements year-round with comprehensive teaching duties and an additional administrative or technical responsibility within the company. Our main stage shows also feature the talents of additional professional artists, local and otherwise. We do it all on a minimal budget and with smiles on our faces. Gamut has consistently operated in the black since its inception as Popcorn Hat Players in the early nineties. We consider ourselves deeply fortunate to have the opportunity do what we love full- time, professionally, in a city and region in which many of us grew up, and that all of us call home.All individuals regardless of race, gender, gender identity, religion, culture, sexual orientation, and/or disability are welcome to participate in Gamut Theatre programs. Gamut Theatre Group's mission is to tell classic stories in new and exciting ways. Our vision is a world where all people cherish classic stories and share them with future generations. If you are someone who believes in our mission and shares our vision, we encourage you to become involved with Gamut Theatre.
