A Community Theater as old as ours is naturally proud of its history, and of the plays it has produced over the years. The theater is an extended family where the young newcomers learn from the seasoned veterans and make life-long friendships in the process.

From the original show, Mr. and Mrs. North, presented at the Junior High School ( now Darby Junior High ), to the Goldman Hotel ballroom, to the 'Old Building' on O Street, to our current stage on North 6th street,  over 5,000 men and women of Fort Smith Little Theatre have brought more than 350 plays to our stage over the years.

It is heartwarming to look back over the work our friends and teachers have done through the years. Unfortunately we have lost track of some of it. While we have the names of the plays that were produced, we do not in all cases have copies of the programs, pictures, posters, and sometimes even the names of the cast and crew.

We are making a concerted effort to complete an electronic history of this material before it all disappears for good.
    1. We are compiling a database of everyone who participated in any show.
    2. We are making electronic files of every program we can locate.
    3. We are making electronic copies of any pictures we can find.

It gets harder every year to find the old material. If you have any old programs or newspaper clippings or pictures of any of the plays or participants, you can help us greatly by either loaning the materials for us to copy or donating the materials to our library.

If you or any member of your family participated in any of the earlier plays at the Little Theater, you may have a scrapbook or souvenir programs stashed away. If you have any materials at all that you could make available to us, please contact us to arrange to pick them up and return them.

You can see the cast and crew lists from the links on the Past Shows page.

And we thank you for your support, through all our past years and all those years to come.
