Upcoming Show!

SCP Fall 2026 Show
Set in the Magnolia Place Assisted Living Center. Against her better judgement, Lurleen Dupree is throwing the Seventh Annual Miss Magnolia Senior Citizen Beauty Pageant. Martha Parcell is certain that it is finally her year to win. But Beatrice, Imogene, and Eaddy have other plans. Throw in a tambourine-playing squirrel, dueling Elvis’s, and an unfortunate spray-tanning incident and you’re in for a knee-slapping, side-splitting night of live theater.

If you have ever been involved on stage or behind the scenes of a Sand County Players production, this invitation is for you. Save the date! June 19, 2027, will be the SCP 50th anniversary party at the Dellwood Pavilion. Lots more information yet to come but we wanted everyone to get this on calendars now so you can make plans to attend.
