The Players Centre for Performing Arts has received a $1 million gift toward its new state-of-the-art complex in Lakewood Ranch. The donation is the lead gift since the theatre announced plans last year to sell its current property and move to Lakewood Ranch’s newest village, Waterside, in Sarasota County. The Muriel O’Neil Fund of the Performing Arts at the Community Foundation of Sarasota County is providing the gift to kick off the theatre’s capital campaign to raise $30 million for the complex. Approximately one-third of the funding will come from the sale of the existing property. The new Players Centre will feature a 480-seat main stage auditorium with balcony seating, a 125-seat black box theatre, a 100-seat cabaret theatre with dining and the main campus of The Arnold Simonsen Players Studio, which is the education arm of the organization.
