The Country Players

 
 

The Country Players were formed over 30 years ago in November 1977 and since then we have usually presented three productions each year -  plays,  pantomimes and occasionally revues and old time musicals. We currently have about thirty full members plus helpers.

Most productions are held at Wootton Village Hall, Church Road, Wootton, near Bedford; we have also presented productions at The Place theatre in Bedford. Rehearsals are held in Wootton most Tuesdays and Thursdays at 8 pm.


Occasionally we have workshops where you can learn about theatre skills.


We have also entered plays into the Bedfordshire Drama Association's One-Act Play Festival and over the years we have received numerous awards. Find out what other groups in Bedfordshire are presenting on the BDA web site.

Our Next Productions

We have two productions in the pipeline!


First, we are hoping to repeat the short play “Bully Dancers” as a youth entry in the BDA festival. This takes place on the week commencing Monday April 26th.


Due to casting problems we have put on hold our plan to present “A servant to two masters”.


We are now looking at “Wyrd Sisters” by Terry Pratchett (adapted by Stephen Briggs). There will be a preliminary look at this play on Thursday 18th February at the Village Hall.


The provisional dates are still 25th to 29th May at The Place.


Please come back later to see more details about our forthcoming productions or you can subscribe to the RSS feeds on the News and Past Productions blog pages.
