Artists are innovators.
The Cambridge Community Players (formerly The Galt Little Theatre) has a long history of supporting the community’s artists. It is our vision to foster our artists and give them a safe space to express their skills and passions. Using our experienced volunteers/members we strive to inspire and educate everyone and anyone. We welcome and appreciate people from all walks of life and hope to provide an environment of fun!
We thank our volunteers, members, and audience for keeping showing up and supporting us. We also thank our new audience members for coming and participating. Community theatre is where people from all different places and experiences come together to put on performances.
Our Story
Cambridge Community Players - History:
The Cambridge Community Players (formerly the Galt Little Theatre) was originally started by a principal of the Galt Collegiate Institute (GCI), Dr. T.H. Wholton. He, with some of his staff and students, created a group called Galt Collegiate Players. From this theatre-loving group of people came the Galt Little Theatre Company. They met at the YMCA in August 1933. The Galt Little Theatre put their first shows on at Tassie Hall. Due to their growing success, the company performed at other venues such as the Galt Public Library and the Delta Playhouse. Not having a permanent home, they rehearsed and stored their sets, costumes and props in a variety of places. They used the old Post Office, Kirkham’s Appliance store, the old Gore Building on Main St., the Savage Shoe building in Preston and the Preston Hydro building, to name a few. In 1982 the City of Cambridge purchased and renovated Water St. Baptist Church and created the Cambridge Arts Theatre. The Galt Little Theatre was given a permanent residence there and that is where we reside to this day!
