- The Players (often inaccurately called The Players Club) is a private social club founded in New York City by the noted 19th-century Shakespearean actor Edwin Booth. In 1888, Booth purchased an 1847 mansion at 16 Gramercy Park, reserved an upper floor for his residence, and turned the rest into a clubhouse. The building's interior and part of its exterior were designed by architect Stanford White; its entryway gaslights are among the few remaining examples in New York City. It is reportedly the oldest club in its original clubhouse and was named a National Historic Landmark in 1962. The Players serves as a social club but is also a repository of American and British theatre history, memorabilia, and theatrical artifacts. It has been reported to have the largest private collection of stage memorabilia, including costumes and weaponry, and owns portraits of its members, most notably a portrait of actor Joseph Jefferson painted by John Singer Sargent. A portrait of John Wilkes Booth, the assassin of Abraham Lincoln, hangs in Edwin Booth's suite, along with the letter Edwin wrote to the public apologizing for the actions of his brother. Today, the club still holds "Pipe Nights" honoring theatrical notables, and maintains a kitchen and wine cellar and a billiard table in its usually busy Grill Room. In the Dining Room, filled with portraits of theatre and film notables and rare playbills from the 19th and 20th centuries, a small stage has been built where members and people of the theatre can be honored; staged readings can take place and new works tried out. The Players also gives the prestigious "Edwin Booth Life Achievement Award" to actors who have had a long, important body of theatre and film work. Past recipients include Helen Hayes, José Ferrer, Garson Kanin, Christopher Plummer, Jason Robards, Jack Lemmon, and Marian Seldes. In June 2007, Angela Lansbury was the recipient, and Edward Albee received it on September 30, 2007. (en)

- 演员俱乐部（The Players或Players Club）由19世纪著名莎剧演员埃德温·布斯创立，位于纽约市曼哈顿区葛莱美西公园16号。1865年4月14日，埃德温的弟弟，当红演员约翰·威尔克斯·布斯暗杀了总统亚伯拉罕·林肯。在这之后布斯家族的生活发生了改变。建立一个社交俱乐部，让演员们接触不同专业的人士，如实业家，作家和其他创造性的艺术家。布斯购买了这座1847年的豪宅，完全重新设计布置，准备就绪后，于1888年12月31日举行隆重的开幕仪式。其室内的一部分，及外观的设计者为建筑师 斯坦福·怀特。此后埃德温一生都住在楼上，直到1893年6月7日去世。其余部分则用作俱乐部。1962年被命名为美国国家历史地标。 该俱乐部仍保留了在纽约市仅剩的不多的煤气灯。 (zh)
