CORE VALUES

MISSION STATEMENT

The purpose of the organization is to provide the citizens of Cary and surrounding areas with the opportunity to enhance and showcase their theatrical talents through a variety of activities including but not limited to: theatrical productions, readings of up and coming playwrights, and theatre workshops.

CARY PLAYERS’ CORE VALUES

A “Player” is any member of Cary Players or any person who actively participates in its purpose, and as such deserves honor, respect and appreciation for the time devoted to that purpose, whether paid or volunteer.

RESPECT THE PLAYER

The organization seeks to develop productions that inspire those who attend with simple joy, internal reflection or a desire to make a positive change in their own lives. Productions that degrade, offend, or leave the audience feeling uncomfortable are not goals of this organization.

INSPIRE THE PATRON

The organization seeks to be a positive influence for good in the community, and looks for opportunities to provide charitable contributions through service or monetary means.

UPLIFT THE COMMUNITY

The organization provides education and entertainment on a diverse range of topics deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors and that benefit all who take part in its activities and events.

Regardless of age, ancestry, race, ethnicity, religion, ability, neurodiversity, gender expression, identity, and sexual orientation, we strive to ensure accessibility to all, including our patrons. All concerns, including conflicts of interest brought to the organization’s attention, are not condoned and shall be addressed immediately. Cary Players prohibits harassment, disrespectful or unprofessional conduct based on the perception that anyone has any such characteristics or is associated with a person who has or is perceived as having any of those characteristics.
