Mission

The purpose of the Great Plains Theatre (GPT) is to enrich lives in Dickinson County and the surrounding area by producing high-quality live theatre and performing arts education.  GPT provides a quality professional theatrical experience for this region and serves as a cultural center for many surrounding area events. Through the GPT youth program, Plain Great Players (PGP), we strive to enrich the lives of youth in the area with the use of live performances and educational programs. We believe the power of theatre can provide relief from daily life, transform and cultivate potential in people, and make connections with others through the unique exchange that happens between the audiences and the actors.

Profile

"I regard the theater as the greatest of all art forms, the most immediate way in which a human being can share with another the sense of what it is to be a human being." - Thornton Wilder

Theatre has the power to bring people together, inspire creativity, spark meaningful conversations, and transform lives. Your generosity ensures that Great Plains Theatre continues to be a place where stories are told, talent is nurtured, and our community shines. On behalf of our staff and Board of Directors, we extend our deepest gratitude for your support. We look forward to seeing you at the theatre!
