Mission:

The purpose of Cary Players is to provide the citizens of Cary and surrounding areas with a) the means by which they may develop, enhance and showcase theatrical talents, and b) enriching and enlightening social and cultural experiences via a diverse offering of excellent theatrical productions."

Principles:

Respect the Player. A "Player" is any  member of Cary Players or any person who actively participates in its purpose, and as such deserves honor, respect and appreciation for the time devoted to that purpose, whether paid or volunteer. 

Inspire the Patron. The organization seeks to develop productions that inspire those who attend with simple joy, internal reflection or a desire to make a positive change in their own lives. Productions that degrade, offend, or leave the audience feeling uncomfortable are not goals of this organization.

Uplift the Community. The organization seeks to be a positive influence for good in the community, and looks for opportunities to provide charitable contributions through service or monetary means. 

Educate and Enlighten All. The organization provides education and enlightenment on a diverse range of topics deemed appropriate by the board of directors and that benefit all who take part in its activities and events.
