Kings Players

Have attended multiple programs and the productions at this little theatre are getting better and better. There is a very dedicated staff as well as actors who work hard for no pay because they have a passion to bring culture to our town. This new production starting this Friday night August 9th 2019 is bound to be great because Cyndie Maxwell is an outstanding director. I won't miss it! Hope to see you there.

Broadway they are not, but if you want some quality entertainment at a fraction of the cost of professional theatre, this is the place. Run by a rag-tag group of dedicated thespians who sacrifice personal time and expense to bring theatre arts to the community. We salute the people who have made it possible for this place to be running for over 50 years.

A breath of culture into a scary part of Hanford -- they always manage to put on all kinds of really fun, inexpensive shows with active participants in the community, year in and year out. I'm glad there's something like this in a town that can seem dead sometimes.

This theater has been building steam lately. Shows are getting better. Always a nice intimate experience. Very glad Hanford has such a place.

I finally decided to visit the little theatre in town. I was excited to see Wait until dark. I think the mistake I made was first seeing the 1967 wait until dark with Audrey Hepburn, Alan Arkin, Richard Crenna, Jack Westin, etc. I think the director of this play was responsible for the poor casting. The character Roat was Neither ruthless nor frightening, he was extremely slow and laughable. He was much too old for the part & not at all convincing. The character Susy was extremely loud and overly dramatic. I actually thought most of the characters were overly dramatic. Most of the time I had to bite inside my mouth to keep from laughing aloud! The character Mr. Hendrix was absolutely the worst. It was if he were reading his script slowly word by word with hardly any expression. Most all of the characters forgot their lines and jumbled through it. Which really surprised me as this was the last weekend of this performance. It was painful sitting through almost 3 hours of this overly long play. I must mention that the only believable character was Gloria. She did a really great job playing her character, which was pretty much like the actual character. My final words are this play was not at all what it could have been. It was not suspenseful nor intriguing. It was more like a comedy and that is not at all what I had been anticipating. I was not surprised to see that during the second act people had quietly exited the theatre. I am hesitant to return.
