The Community Council on the Performing Arts... CCPA was established in Nevada, Missouri, in 1973. Since that time, the CCPA has provided over 200 amateur productions for the benefit of the residents in Nevada, Vernon County, and the surrounding area. The CCPA has touched hundreds of lives in our area through our audiences, workers behind the scenes, or performers on stage. Our organization takes a leading role in providing artistic opportunities and experiences for the general public and also provides the youth in our local school districts with specialized programming. Read a recent article about CCPA in The Nevada Daily Mail.

Chuck Nash will narrate the show.

CCPA looking for more production directors! Have you ever considered directing a show for CCPA? Now is the perfect opportunity, as we are actively seeking to expand our pool of talented stage directors. While formal training in theatre arts is certainly welcome, it is not a mandatory requirement. A wide range of theatre experience can be substituted for the more formal training. We do provide a stipend for our directors and encourage their creativity. Those interested in directing but having no directing experience might want to team up with one of our experienced directors and learn the ropes, and we can facilitate that process. If you are interested in directing now or think you might want to direct someday please send us a contact number, and our Production Chair will contact you to tell you all about all of our exciting opportunities.
