Encore Players
Formed in the 1980s, the Encore Players serves as the Drama Ministry at Littleton United Methodist Church. Led by Kelly Kates and Renee Posey, this ministry offers our members the opportunity to express in theater and music the message of our love of God, and the teachings of the United Methodist Church. We strive to bring, at no cost to the public, a variety of productions each year: some liturgical, some comedic, and some musical.
Performances are typically scheduled for the Terrific Tuesday Seniors Ministry, LUMC’s Fine Arts Festival, Western Welcome Week, and a musical every other summer.
Past shows include Music Man, Oliver, Godspell, Harvey, Twelve Angry Jurors, Diary of Anne Frank, Steel Magnolias, the Sound of Music, Jesus Christ Superstar, and more!
