      The Country Players are a group of volunteers founded in 1979. They are dedicated to having fun while producing quality shows, and to fostering the involvement of all levels of developing talent in the performance, backstage, and business aspects of non-profit community theater. They are proud to be a community theater for the entire family, and to be housed at The Shea.

They are pleased to provide quality theater for and with the local communities as a resident company of The Shea. A.C.T. produces three shows annually consisting of a summer one-act play, a major spring musical, and a fall drama/comedy. A.C.T. is a member of the American Association of Community Theatre and The Community Theater Association.
