Board of Trustees

The Board of Trustees is the governing entity of the Old Town Playhouse and the OTP Young Company. The Board is made up of community residents and members serve up to two consecutive three year terms. In addition, three members of the Board are elected by Old Town Playhouse members, with one member being elected each year at the Annual Meeting.

Standing Committees include the Artistic Committee and the Young Company Advisory Committee. The Artistic Committee is made up of four elected members (two elected each year at the Annual Meeting and serving two year terms) and up to four commitee-selected members.

The OTP Board of Trustees meetings are held on the third Tuesday of each month at 4:30pm
(PLEASE NOTE THE NEW TIME - Meetings will be held at this time while held on Zoom during COVID time)
