As a lover of The Arts, I enjoy finding new outlets to enhance my creativity, and because of this, I was introduced to the Black Swamp Players, which is a community theater company based in Bowling Green, Ohio. I had the opportunity to play “Wendy,” in their production of Sara Ruehl’s For Peter Pan on her 70th Birthday. Because of my role, I had the opportunity to have an intimate interview with the play’s outstanding producer, Dr. Heath Diehl. This interview marked the beginning of the exciting changes that are coming to the series! Founded in 1968, BSP, a non-profit theatre that offers a rich slate of seasonal plays, has been entertaining and engaging local audiences for more than five decades, by supporting local talent in the Northwest Ohio area. (On The Stage) For many years, Black Swamp Players performed in various venues around Wood County, Ohio. In recent years, they secured their own space at 115 E. Oak Street, which went under major renovations to convert it into a black box theater that seats about 80 people, with the addition of accessibility features and a box office. Check out their 57th season that includes such works as Heroes of the Fourth Turning (Sep-Oct 2025), The Thin Place (Nov 2025), Book of Days, The Revolutionists, and The Appliance Department. (On The Stage) Tickets are $20.00 and available for purchase online or at the box office door.
