It Takes a Village

a night of one acts



The Gates Mills Players are accepting submissions for our first ever One Acts Festival to take place in May of 2026. One Acts should be 10-minutes in length and original, never before produced works. Ideal plays will use limited set pieces, few props, and basic technical elements. These will be performed as a series of ten one acts to create a single night of theater. So, the set, lighting, etc. is shared. Think Black Box style simplicity.


All submissions are due to shannon@gatesmillsplayers.com by November 1, 2025.


Authors of the selected shows will be contacted early in 2026.


If you are interested in directing a one act, please reach out to Shannon at the address above.


Auditions will take place late winter/early spring of 2026. Stay tuned for details!





"The Birds"

A Radio Play Live on Stage
was performed July 25th and 26th



Based on the horror story by Daphne du Maurier, The Birds tells the story of the Waite family and their surrounding community in Cornwall facing deadly attacks from flocks of ordinary birds.


Presented in the style of a 50's era radio play, Gate Mills Players' production of The Birds is certain to excite and terrify audiences of all ages--with a healthy dose of humor along the way!


The show will run approximately one hour and is a FREE EVENT.


Thank you to all who came out to support the GMP and our production of "The Birds". Stay tuned for information on next summer's radio show!



The Fox on the Fairway was performed:
March 14,15,16,21,22 2025



A tribute from Ken Ludwig (Lend Me A Tenor, Moon Over Buffalo) to the great English farces of the 1930s and 1940s, A Fox On the Fairway takes audiences on a hilarious romp pulling the rug out from underneath the stuffy denizens of a private country club. Filled with mistaken identities, slamming doors and over-the-top romantic shenanigans, it’s a furiously paced comedy that recalls the Marx Brothers’ classics. A charmingly madcap adventure about love, life and man's eternal love affair with... golf.

Directed by Christopher Bizub
