In early 1993, Rya Lory offered an acting class through the Millis Recreation Department. Ms. Lory had astrong background in theater and dramatic arts in New York, and had recently moved to the Boston area, settling in Millis.
Her original goal was for the student/actors to present script readings on stage. However, the amateur actors exceeded her goals, and presented their first play in November of 1993 — Neil Simon's comedy Plaza Suite, which was a sell out!!!
Since 1995, the Millis Community Theatre has grown into a non-profit community theater membership organization, which produces a fall and spring play each year. In 1992, the group formed a partnership with Millis Middle and High School to producef an annual spring musical with the schools.
