The organization proudly opened its doors with its inaugural production of Jessica Blank and Erik Jensen’s ''The Exonerated'', which tells the true stories of six death row inmates exonerated of their crimes anywhere from two to 22 years after their wrongful imprisonment.

Directed by local director Eric Lund, and starring the local talents of Wendy Baird, Darice Clewell, and Carol Cohen, ''The Vagina Monologues'' established '''Dignity Players''' as a new powerhouse theatre company in the Annapolis area.
