Constance Welsh established the Davidson Players in 1965 and then created a separate venue to expose kids to theater in Children’s Drama Workshop. Today, the group is a catch-all, attracting actors and showgoers of any age, with year-round schedules for both its youth and main-stage programs. The dual focus is rare among nonprofessional companies. While adults can take part in and enjoy the Broadway-centric show 42nd Street, kids can be transported to a new world with productions like Seussical Jr.
