Our Players Tell The Story

“The Players have a clear notion of the role of theatre, however, as a mirror to the human condition, and their programming reflects this. So does their always accomplished theatrical craft.”

Central Texas Live Theatre

“Trinity Street Players performs in one of my favorite theatre spaces in town, a black box on the fourth floor of First Baptist Church…. Best yet, admission is free. Kudos to Trinity Street and First Baptist for inviting us into their theatrical fold, asking for no more than our reciprocal engagement in their dramatic offering and for the courageous gift of a local premiere.”
