The Omaha Community Playhouse, now celebrating its 85th season, is one of such places. With ties to theatre luminaries including the Fonda family (Henry and Jane) and the Brando family (Dodie Brando, mother of Marlon) , OCP has been offering experimental and classic family fare since before the Great Depression.
To celebrate the legacy and local commitment of the time-honored playhouse, OCP music director Jim Boggess (music) and associate artistic director Susan Baer Collins (lyrics) penned a "Playhouse Anthem," which captures the true essence of why we call it "community theatre."
Here's a look at the Omaha Community Playhouse Performers and the "Playhouse Anthem."
