Key West Players Plan Summer Workshop And Social Activities Numerous Suggestions were made and plans discussed by The Key West Players Tuesday night at their regular monthly business meeting held in The Barn Theatre, for summer activities including a Summer Workshop.

The talent, thus trained, would supply a nucleus for the season’s productions, enabling The Players to produce shows with larger casts, eliminate too repetitious individual appearances, and produce more shows per season.
