THE STORY OF EP

For forty years a group of Puget Sound artists with a vision for Christian dramatics have served the community – under the name of The Evergreen Performers. We have a passion for ministry and a heart for the arts. We are based in Gig Harbor but serve as a bridge between churches.
We have grown from a small drama class led by Chaplain Dave and Dianne Howard to the Christian drama ministry team we are today. On September 9, 1984, Diane Howard and Director Sharon Cantrill formed this new Christian Theatre – Evergreen Performers, sponsored by the Ft. Lewis Chaplains. In August of 1985 – they became an independent theatre company producing 2 musicals – Godspell and The Velveteen Rabbit (simultaneously) – and the rest is history.
Over thirty years later, we are still ministering to the military community, but now we consider them our audience’s treasured guests. We have produced 33 major musicals, toured to over 100 churches and watched 2 generations grow up, both on the stage and in the audience.
Some of our past productions have included an Easter Sunday Sunrise Service on American Lake (sponsored by the Ft. Lewis chaplains), The Best Christmas Pageant Ever, Godspell, The Velveteen Rabbit, Angels, The Northwest Premier of Narnia, Pinocchio, Anne of Green Gables, The Family Nobody Wanted, Holiday Dinner Theatres, The Sound of Music, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer & Huck Finn, Methuselah’s Gift, HI Tops, The Kids of Bristol, and Pollyanna.
