Despite not having many prior acting credits to his name, Bob Tansley first dove into directing youth community theater productions as a way of helping further his daughter Brooke’s theatrical experience.
A retail store manager at the time, he founded St. Mary’s Children’s Theater in 1992 and established Blessed Sacrament Children’s Theater and Post Theatrical Players in 2001. Now retired from retail, and after more than three decades directing and performing for these and other local theaters (including the Warner Theatre, Landmark Community Theatre, and Seven Angels Theatre), Bob founded the Golden Years Theatre Company in 2023, as a way of positively impacting the lives of senior citizens. Their inaugural production, Grease, generated much interest from performers and audiences alike. This summer’s production of Peter Pan is the subject of an upcoming documentary film produced by Folklight Film Club.
