Guymon Community Theatre
The Guymon Community Theatre group has four productions a year,
including one musical.
It is located in the old movie theater
on Main Street in Guymon, Oklahoma.

Guymon Community Theatre has completed 31 seasons and produced 103 shows with dedicated volunteers.
Your financial support is vital to keeping the theatre in the “black”.
Besides play production costs, the lobby needs a new heating and air system and the back stage curtains are in tatters.
Another project is to restore the historic neon sign on the marquee. We will be working with the Main Street program
architect for ideas on the sign project. There are funds established for the renovations.
The Oklahoma Arts Council grant for 2009-2010 was $15,100, but because of budget cuts on the state level,
our last two shows were reduced by 2.5%. The total 2010-2011 grant is $14,009. Our expenses last season were
$45,576 and our revenue was $36,437 for a net loss of $9,139. We paid $14,011 for insurance and utilities last season.
The budget for the upcoming year is $45,000. We depend heavily on patrons and audiences for financial support.
GCT welcomes businesses as well as individuals to be patrons.
The 32nd season for Guymon Community Theatre will include the musical Roland Dahl's Willie Wonka directed by Jerry Wadley,
It's a Wonderful Life directed by Charles Michael, Jr and Death by Chocolate directed by Penny Knollenberg.
There is a small group of dedicated volunteers who are working very hard to keep the theatre active.
There is always room for more directors, actors, artists, stage hands, and volunteers.
YOU can become involved by:
- Becoming a patron or season ticket holder and attending the productions.
- Becoming an active voting member.
- Auditioning for a role in a production.
- Volunteering for any job.
- Saying “yes”, if you are asked.
