About us

The Pioneer Players were incorporated in 1978 after many years of informal theatre productions dating back to the founding of New Ulm.

A group of citizens reformed the group in 2001 as the New Ulm Actors Community Theatre (NUACT). The not-for-profit group, as an IRS 501(c)(3), operates a season of plays and activities centered around the historic 900-seat “State Street Theatre” on the corner of State and Center Streets, and a recently-opened 100-seat “Off Broadway Studio” downstairs in a former band room.

All ages are welcome, from our youngest workshop and summer camp performers through senior community members.
