Who We Are

The Greely Players is a not-for-profit community-based musical theatre group that was established in 1990 in the village of Greely in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. The group mounts one main production every year. We rely on volunteers to produce the show and operate on a cost recovery basis only.

In 1990, the All Saints Anglican Church Choir celebrated the church’s 100th anniversary. To commemorate the occasion and encourage participation from the larger community, the church Music Director Carol Parker asked for the assistance of local community members to create the production of Fiddler on the Roof. Many of the cast members were also members of the church choir, including three generations of the Stanley family. Throughout the years a number of the original participants have remained with the theatre troupe.

Each year The Greely Players presents a major production involving both children and adults. Among those mounted in previous years are Fiddler on the Roof, The Wizard of Oz, The Sound of Music, Annie, Beauty and the Beast, Grease, Shrek, Spamalot, and many others. See our Past Shows page for cast lists and photos from all of our past productions.
