Announcing our 2026 Season!

As the curtain closes on our spectacular 2025 season featuring Annie, Big Fish, and our fall production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, we’re thrilled to unveil an enchanting 2026 lineup—featuring three unforgettable shows! Disney’s Frozen  – Just released for live performance, this magical musical brings the beloved characters and songs of the movie to life. Perfect for families and fans of all ages! Oliver! – A musical theater masterpiece filled with unforgettable music, heart, and adventure.

The Kitsap Forest Theater is a hidden gem in the greater Puget Sound arts community. Stroll down the forested trail to our unique and breathtaking theater and create a treasured family tradition. One of the oldest nonprofit theater groups in the country, the Players troupe performs in the midst of the 460-acre Rhododendron Preserve near Bremerton. Giant fir trees surround terraced seating—carved from the side of a natural amphitheater—while lush ferns serve as the “footlights” for the performance stage. All747 ages will delight in this fun Northwest experience. Come early and picnic under the firs before the show.

In addition to producing three shows this year (spring, summer & fall) the Mountaineers Players provide summer day camps for kids and a Salmon Safari for the whole family in November. We invite you to join us as an audience member, actor, or behind the scenes volunteer and become part of our unique community combining the love of the beautiful out of doors with quality theater. Kitsap Forest Theater was featured on King 5 Evening Magazine in 2021. 

We welcome everyone with open arms to be part of our group.
