The Renner, Home of Zane Trace Players

46 Years ago, theatrical enthusiasts fell in love with the performing arts. In 1987 a little church on 7th Street was purchased in hopes of sharing the love for the performing arts with friends, family and neighbors. As time has passed, they have introduced the love of theater to people from the young to the young at heart. With care, this little church has blossomed. This charming theatrical environment has grown to become a neighborhood favorite. Little by little and show by show, The Zane Trace Players has carved their place in our community as well as our hearts.

Our directors have a passion for story telling. Our participants are volunteers who enjoy stepping out of their everyday to bring a story to life. Zane Trace Players is a non-profit organization with no paid staff. All participants are volunteers who share the love of theater and the performing arts.

Zane Trace Players is located on 148 N. 7th Street in downtown Zanesville. We are fully handicap accessible and offer ample parking. Our intimate environment offers a cozy place to enjoy performances in the winter and a sweet escape from the heat of the summer. Reservations are requested as seating is limited.
