NAPLES — Now entering its eighth consecutive season, The Naples Players’ ETC… Readers Theatre presents a wide variety of plays in the intimate Tobye Studio at Sugden Community Theatre.

The mission of ETC Readers Theatre is to present Southwest Florida audiences and actors with opportunities in theatre other than fully-staged productions. Tickets to ETC shows are priced at an affordable and popular $10 each. The mode is black-box, script in hand, with limited rehearsals, minimal blocking, no props, black costumes and no line memorization.

The theme of the season opener on Sunday and Monday Nov. 8-9 is “Making It.” The four plays will include: “Shock of Recognition” by Robert Anderson; and “Give the Bishop My Faint Regards,” “Dreams of Glory” and “Getting In” by Frank J. Gilroy.

Friday and Saturday Dec. 4 and 5 will mark the sixth annual “An Evening of New Plays,” with a holiday reception following the plays and awards.

Consecutive Sundays Feb. 14 and 21, themed “Foote Steps,” will be a tribute to the Pulitzer playwright Horton Foote and will mark the one-year anniversary of his passing. The plays: “Oil Well” and “The Dancers” will be performed.

Sunday and Monday April 11 and 12, themed “An Affair to Forget,” will present four plays: “So Please Be Kind” by Frank J. Gilroy, “A Sunny Morning” by Joaquin Quintero, “Barry, Betty and Bill” by Renée Taylor & Joseph Bologna, and “Footsteps of Doves” by Robert Anderson.

And Sunday-Monday, May 23-24, the 2010 “Classic!” will present a comedy in the spirit of Sheridan, Shaw, Wilde, Aristophanes, Moliére and Shakespeare. This year’s “Classic!’’ is a contemporary take on historic French satire, “Cecile, or, The School for Fathers,” by Jean Anouilh.

Curtains are at 7:30 p.m. and tickets go on sale at the Box Office one month in advance.
