History of the Garner Towne Players The Towne Players was formed in 1998 as a means of increasing the awareness of the performing arts in Garner and Wake County. Run by a governing board made up of citizens from the Garner, North Carolina and greater Triangle area, the Towne Players produce three or four theatrical plays each year and offer theatre classes for children. As a community theatre, we depend upon many people who enjoy the beauty and sense of community that an organization can bring. Since its first production in 1998 of Harvey, the Towne Players have received praise for the shows they've brought to life on the stage. The group was nominated for Best Community Theatre group for 2000 and 2001 by Spectator Magazine as well as by Robert's Reviews in 2003, and won the award from Robert's Reviews in 2004 and 2002 ! The production of Driving Miss Daisy was named one of the top 10 theatrical productions in the Triangle in 2000, and The Last Train to Nibroc received the same honor in 2001 and 2003, as did the encore presentation of Dearly Departed in 2002 and the production of Sylvia in 2004.
