Celebrating 20 Years of the Marlborough Players!
June 2026 marked the 20th anniversary of the Marlborough Players. Since our founding 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 that time 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”.
Although we have a healthy membership, we are always looking for aspiring actors and directors to join our happy band, as well as those willing to help backstage. If you are interested and would like further details Contact Us
In addition to staging public performances of plays, we organise play readings and theatrical skills training, and we meet in Marlborough on a regular basis. For more info click Archive
