Season Tickets
If you’ve come to more than one show in the past season, a Season Ticket may be right for you. Season Tickets give you 6 admissions to use anyway you like throughout the season. At $70, this saves you over $20 each season. With a purchase of a season ticket, you have the flexibility to come to every show, or you can save up your tickets to see a few shows multiple times, or even invite a few guests for a night out to a favorite play! Season Ticket holders also get their name in programs.

Tell us a little about yourself: Lived in the Flint area most of my life. Father of two humans, a cat and a dog. Extreme lover of all things art, be they visual, audial or edible.
How long have you been with FCP? 6 years.
Why did you join FCP? I've had a many great experiences with the shows I've been involved with at FCP. I enjoy the people I've got to meet and find it an overall lovely place to be.
What do you like most about FCP? My first show ever was at FCP in 2019 (La Cage). It made me aware of how amazing theater is, the people and the process combined. Ever since, I've been entranced by how magical the whole experience can be. Seeing all the pieces come together in the end is one my favorite things to witness.

Pet of the Month

Volunteer of the Month - Zachary Nash
Nash is a warm hearted individual who brings out the best in others and in Flint Community Players. When I think about FCP, he is one of the smiling faces I imagine and he always knows how to make volunteers feel welcome and makes sure that they can put their best selves forward. He did an exceptional job music directing TGWDLM, and now is planning the Villains Cabaret!
Thank you Zach!
