Broken Arrow honors youth councilor, Community Playhouse announces 47th season
Summary
The council recognized youth city councilor Breece Campbell for selection to the National League of Cities 2026–27 Youth Advisory Council and heard a program update from the Broken Arrow Community Playhouse, which plans a 47th season and a city employee night and fundraiser in August.
The Broken Arrow City Council recognized youth city councilor Breece Campbell for being selected to the National League of Cities 2026–27 Youth Advisory Council.
Several council members and community representatives praised Campbell’s leadership. A presenter said the selection process “impressed the selection committee with her leadership, commitment to civic engagement, and dedication to creating positive changes in her community.” The mayor presented a citation from the Oklahoma House of Representatives honoring Campbell’s appointment.
The council then received an annual update from Ron Whitaker of the Broken Arrow Community Playhouse. Whitaker said the Playhouse will open its 47th season with productions including Sarah, Plain and Tall; The Addams Family; Charlotte’s Web; and To Kill a Mockingbird, and invited council and city staff to a community playhouse employee night and a fundraising sale on August 22. “We’re excited about our 47th season,” Whitaker said, and described outreach programs including a seniors reader’s-theater group and plans to explore using a vacated senior center building as a dinner-theater venue.
Mayor Deborah Wimp read a proclamation recognizing the Playhouse’s season and encouraging residents to attend performances.
The presentation included no formal action; the council agreed to publicize the proclamation and work with staff on follow-up communications.
