the mission of Improbable Players is to set the stage for prevention by educating the public about addiction and recovery through dramatic performances and theater workshops - featuring actors in long-term recovery -  that help people recognize situations in their own lives and seek the help they need.

Improbable Players, Inc. is a non-profit 501 (c) (3) corporation


from a grateful supporter and family:

"Why do we support the Improbable Players? Because they are doing the work and programs I wished someone had offered me and my family when I was young. Our lives might have been different in many ways.  For one...I might still have my sister; my children might have had a living aunt, instead of just a faded black and white photo on a shelf.

The way I look at it the Improbable Players do things for us that we can't do alone or as well. And in doing so, they make the world better for those I care about and love.  That's a pretty good return on our investment."

your contribution really does make a difference!

*  as we write new scenes and plays to address ever-changing alcohol/ drug scene

*  as we find and train talented and sober young actors

*  as we continue our outreach and make new connections and collaborations in the prevention and theater communities

Donations from foundations play a major role in sustaining and supporting the work of Improbable Players, especially in making free and low-cost programs available to communities that would otherwise not be able to pay for them.
