FAIRFAX THEATRE COMPANY

Fairfax Theatre Company (FTC) is a grass roots, non-profit community theatre company that evolved from the former Fairfax Players. Since we were established in 2008 we have  produced first rate entertainment for the community—everything from Shakespeare to original musicals. We draw on  the wealth of talent in our town and represent all age groups within the performing arts.

We are well on our way to creating a permanent repertory company of dedicated artistes and crew, who not only produces original plays that appeals to the greater Fairfax community but also encourages beginning and established playwrights, producers, directors, and performers to participate in our ongoing mission  to further the performing arts in our town.
