The conflict between the established artist and the adulatory fan who becomes a protégé, disciple, colleague and friend—and finally threatening rival—is one of those great topics…It resurfaces in Donald Margulies’s provocative new play, COLLECTED STORIES, which confronts the prominent short-story writer Ruth Steiner with her student turned confidante turned competitor Lisa Morrison. What is new here is that the women are teacher and student both in academia and in life, that they come from different social milieus, and that for her first novel, Lisa has also cannibalized Ruth’s experiences, to wit her youthful, shattering affair with the poet Delmore Schwartz. As always, Margulies is literate, intellectually stimulating, and able to create characters of both dramatic and human interest. And he sustains this interest through six scenes covering six years that only briefly leave Ruth’s cozily messy, book-infested Greenwich Village apartment. Here two worlds clash in age-old, ecumenical dueling, led up to by great mutual emotional investment, and all the more bitter for it.” —New York Magazine.
The 2023-2024 season celebrates the strength and complexities of female friendship.
Our season is dedicated to Ann Davis in commemoration of her friendship,
her fearless leadership, and unwavering dedication.

From its beginnings as a church drama guild to a church-based community theatre in 2010 originally named Huguenot Community Players, River City Community Players has continued to strive for a greater involvement and outreach to the community. Transitioning from its church roots to its own non-profit community theatre in 2017, River City Community Players is now producing a variety of enjoyable and meaningful theatre productions in a variety of settings in the greater Richmond area. The focus is on the players – the people who perform and work on the production, and the people who are in the audience. We invite you to be a part of our theatre: attend performances, audition, usher, help with set, props, and costumes.
