About Plays & Players

Right off Rittenhouse Square, Plays & Players Theatre at 1714 Delancey Street, was designed and constructed in 1912 by Philadelphia architect, Amos W. Barnes.  Originally opened as a dramatic school it was soon used as a theater for Broadway try-outs. Plays & Players purchased the “Little Theatre of Philadelphia” in 1922 and has performed here ever since. Plays & Players began in 1911 as a social club devoted to expanding and developing new theater experiences for and by its membership. We present plays, readings, dance and music on our two stages, the mainstage proscenium, which seats 298, and the black box Skinner Studio on the third floor. We continue in our mission, as a member-driven, community based organization to provide a safe space for members, audience and local artists to engage socially and experience an inclusive, vibrant array of artistic programming. By preserving our historic home we provide a space of inspiration for artists to create and perform throughout their careers.
