Three one act plays, very different in style but with a linking theme of confusion, loss and distress, caused by words, spoken and unspoken. The Monkey’s Paw is a creepy tale of avarice, curses and ghosts, a warning to us all to be happier with our lot. Early Blight, a short play from the Deckchairs […]
LWW, as it became to be known, had nearly sixty people in the cast/crew list although the actual number of people involved was nearer to seventy. Enough white muslin to go around the world twice was used to create the winter wonderland of Narnia, director Juliet Harper and a cast of thirty created a little […]
Ten Times Table. For a better view of the programme right click your mouse and use the zoom, I will try for a better copy later. A super picture of the cast, clearly enjoying their costumes, or someone has just fallen over at the back of the hall.
As you can see from the programme, if you look closely, Two for One had a combined cast of nineteen, pretty good for two one act plays. I cant find a review so if you would like to submit a retrospective review then go to contacts and e-mail me. I have a vague memory of […]
W Somerset Maugham’s The Noble Spaniard was billed as a comedy and looking at the cast photos it certainly made me laugh.
What a cast, all women in fancy wigs and fancy costumes, the result – a nice easy to watch play.
Wait until Dark, then set trip wires and carry a big stick. This production earned us another award, for best visual presentation, and nominations in three other categories as well as introducing four new members to the Players.
STOP PRESS…POLICE STOP PLAYERS PANTOMIME…Oh yes they did. But all was not lost as this two act offering stepped in to fill the gap. Pauline Tomlinson won best actress when The Road to Ruin was entered in the One Act festival.
This programme is difficult to read, but you can right click your mouse and use the zoom. If you have any more photos please let me know, especially if they show all that luvverly red blood spilling across the stage. Director Judy Leigh should be proud of this play as it attracted nominations in many […]
Well it’s quite obvious who did it, the butler alias Nigel Gillingham. And if it wasn’t him, well book him anyway for looking shifty.
A best production award for this play, so much silverware – I hope it’s insured, and the singing didn’t seem to put the judges off.
Gasping, a play where salesmen sell the air we breath, by Ben Elton, was Mark Neal’s first foray into directing. A brave choice – having some difficult to stage scenes in a massage parlour and squash court, scenes that some professional companies leave out. Gasping was a great success and under Mark’s direction the actors […]

Can’t remember a lot about this play except Mark Neals extra large feet. Some more photos would be good, a great painted audience by Christin Langrish, especially of the feet. The Proposal went on to great success at the One Act Festival.
Although we don’t archive our performances at Festivals this one I think is worth a mention. You will read in the newspaper article the multi-award winning production of the Proposal at the One Act Festival,was the last scene for character actor/director and all round goody Mabs Scarle who passed quietly away while watching the HAPS […]
Yet another award for the Players, Director Mabs Scarle and her cast of four. A spooky play set in a 17th Centuary labourer’s cottage owned by Rachael and Edmund. A Christmas visit by their friends Dan and Margaret set off some strange and macabre events.

Mike Norths play Buzz off we’re British was very different from the usual Players fare in that it was a play, and written by Mike North. He did sting us for royalties though. We waited a long time for another member to write us a play, Sliced by James Gillingham.
