Digital Archive 2017 Season

2017 marked a pivotal year for Western Reserve Playhouse with the hiring of its first Executive Artistic Director, Dawn Sniadak-Yamokoski, and Co-Artistic Director, Brian Westerly. Under new leadership, the historic barn underwent a revolutionary transformation—evolving from a little barn with an outhouse into a fully equipped, professional-grade theatre featuring modern restrooms, a bar, expanded storage, dressing rooms, and more. This year set the foundation for a new era of growth and innovation at WRP.
