Christian Plays & Musicals for Churches Since 1906 - Theatre That Makes a Difference

For generations, Eldridge has helped churches bring meaningful stories to life through theatre. We understand that church productions are about more than putting on a performance. They're opportunities to bring people together, share messages of faith, and create lasting memories. 

• A Legacy You Can Trust. With roots dating back to 1906, Eldridge brings generations of publishing experience and a longstanding commitment to quality theatrical materials. 

• Productions for Every Congregation. Whether you're planning a Christmas service, Easter presentation, children's production, or special church event, our catalog offers options for a variety of audiences and production needs. 

• Stories That Inspire. We believe theatre can entertain, encourage, and communicate meaningful messages. Our collection helps churches find productions that connect with their congregations.

Helping Churches Bring Stories of Faith to Life Since 1906

Eldridge Christian Plays & Musicals has been helping churches, ministries, and Christian organizations share meaningful messages through theatre for more than a century. From beloved Christmas productions and Easter dramas to children's plays, biblical stories, and inspirational musicals, we offer thoughtfully selected theatrical resources for congregations of all sizes and denominations. For generations, our commitment has remained the same: to provide quality plays and musicals that inspire, entertain, and strengthen the message being shared on stage.

Our roots go back to 1906, when Harry C. Eldridge established a publishing business in Franklin, Ohio, with a simple determination to publish his own play. More than a century later, that original spirit of creativity and publishing continues through the work of talented playwrights, composers, and the churches that bring their stories to life.

We're proud of our history and grateful to be part of yours.
