In 2005, the Ukiah Players Theatre, joined with the Center for Digital Storytelling, to create The PlaceMeant Project: Stories of Why Where Matters. The project was funded by a grant from The James Irvine Foundation,

Throughout the Spring and Summer of 2005, stories were collected from communities around Ukiah, and in October of 2005, they were integrated into a stage production featuring 21 stories, many performed live by the authors. In 2006, an additional workshop collected stories from other parts of Mendocino, leading to a touring production in August and September.
