St John's Players

 

The first production by St. John's Players was back in 1962 when they presented three one act plays in the old Church Hall. Since that time they have produced a wide variety of dramatic styles including Son et Lumieres, open air Shakespeare and original musicals.

The Players enjoy a challenge and have created a number of elaborate sets that included having a real car on stage in Alan Ayckbourn's Just Between Ourselves, and not one but three kitchens on stage in another of Ayckbourn's plays, Absurd Person Singular, two of them had running water and another had an AGA cooker!
   
Another regular activity enjoyed by the Players is the production of a Radio Soap called Castlewick Light. This is totally home produced from script writing to recording and production and is distributed on a monthly basis to a number of Talking Newspapers and Magazines for the Blind as well as some hospital radios'. This has been running for sixteen years and will be celebrating its 200th Episode next year!
