Founded in 1988 by Paul Meacham with a small grant from the Sussex County Arts and Heritage Council/NJ State Council on the Arts, Ranger Repertory Summer Theater, as Tri-State Actors Theater was called originally, began as an adjunct to the theater and drama programs instituted by Mr. Meacham when he joined the Wallkill Valley Regional High School staff in 1986. We began as a theater that specialized in children's theater.
One of our three goals has always been to develop a permanent audience for drama in our region, and children's plays are one sure way to establish theater as a positive experience within the minds and hearts of children who may have never experienced live performance before. Children's theater also offered the possibility for training young people as actors and technicians in presentations with high production values and the possibility of interns performing roles rather than serving merely as "spear-carriers" for more experienced performers. Thus, we started with an eye toward all of our goals. As the seasons passed, Tri-State Actors Theater(Ranger Summer Theater) continued to grow. [Click on "seasons"]
