The Montgomery Playhouse is Maryland's second oldest continually-running community theatrical performance group.[1] Formed in 1989 from a merger between through a joint effort of the Board of Directors of both The Kensington/Garret Players and The Montgomery Players, The Montgomery Playhouse, in some form, has been providing theater performances for 85 years.
- ^ In one form or another, The Montgomery Playhouse, whether in the guise of The Montgomery Players or the Kensington/Garrett Players, have been performing regularly scheduled productions every year since 1929. Theater Hopkins, which is a semi-professional theater company associated with Johns Hopkins University, was established in 1921, but routed itself to becoming a semi-professional theater company in 1931.
