Placer Repertory Theater

Mainstage World Premiere of a new play produced by Placer Repertory Theater

Oakmont High School

Professional regional theater company, Placer Repertory Theater, presents Ghosts of Placer County with an all-professional cast on the Oakmont mainstage Sept 30 thru Oct 8.(Covid info below)&quot;The stories we tell say a great deal about who we are,&quot; says the formidable yet loveable character Dr. Dessa Dagmar. This is the story of 30 years in the life of Dr. Dagmar and her daughter Aubrey, or the story of many moments from nearly 200 years of history taking place in Placer County and the region.This play could be said to be about ghostly echoes, or about how individual and community history haunts us, and how we haunt our history to help define ourselves. While technically a drama, this play is full of humor and charm as we meet the loveable but dysfunctional characters who will steal your heart as they depict common triumphs and frailties.COME JOIN US AND PLAY A PART IN PLACER COUNTY HISTORY IN THE MAKING!AWARDS: This new play, Ghosts of Placer County, has already won a number of awards. It is supported, in part, by Armrod Charitable Foundation, the Arts Council of Placer County and the Gloria Burt Sacramento Region Arts Fellowship in Literature through the Sacramento Region Community Foundation. MAKING HISTORY: This mainstage world premiere of Ghosts of Placer County is an historic event for Placer County and for Placer Repertory Theater. This production is not only Placer Rep’s first multi-week mainstage world premiere, but also Placer County’s first opportunity to support its own professional regional theater company on a mainstage.
