Starlite Players is “a showcase for some of the outstanding, award-winning talent based in the Tampa Bay area,” according to Jo Morello, producer. “Everyone involved, whether playwrights, directors, technical crew or actors, is an experienced professional based in the Tampa Bay area.” She describes Starlite Players as “an opportunity for theatre professionals to perform before friends, neighbors and visitors in a casual, fun setting.” The troupe will perform for four evenings each month, beginning with the first set of comedies on July 15-16-17-18. They are also working on “This Isn’t What I Expected,” another group of short comedies, which will run on August 13-14-15-16.

  • PENITENTS, written and directed by Jack Gilhooley and performed by Alison Prouty and Jeremy Guerrero
  • THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES by Marvin Albert, directed by Mark Woodland with actors Jenny Aldrich Walker, Chuck Conlon and Dave Downer.
