This month (June) marks the 20th anniversary of the Marlborough Players. Since our founding in 2006, we’ve been fortunate to welcome well over 100 talented local actors to the Town Hall stage, supported by an even larger team working behind the scenes. Here are just some of them, pictured at a recent anniversary celebration at Marlborough Golf Club!

Over the past 20 years we’ve brought 27 productions to life for our loyal local audiences. Along the way, we’ve also produced radio plays, hosted countless play-reading evenings, and organised many memorable social events.

The Players were founded by Barbara Clauson, Ian Philpott and Jack Hawkes, making their debut in June 2006 with J.B. Priestley’s “An Inspector Calls”, directed by David Sherratt. Two decades on, we’re still going strong, and everyone involved was thrilled that our anniversary year began with another sell-out success, “Absent Friends”.
