Roadshow Players (original) (raw)

Roadshow Players was a traveling theatre troupe that performed for children in the 1970s and 1980s in Southern California. The group was organized as a non-profit organization in the state of California. It was started by actor Joseph Sheppard who directed and produced most of the performances. The group was invited to perform the play at the Sunland-Tujunga branch of the Los Angeles Public Library in the summer of 1977. Demand for the group grew. Sheppard and Center wrote a series of additional shows named "Tails Too", "Tails of Tails", "Tails of more Tails", "Tails Gold" and Christmas Tails.
