Get involved with Prestwood Players,
high quality theatre for 50 years​

Prestwood Players

We are a local theatre company which has been active in the village of Prestwood since 1969. Each year we put on a very popular pantomime, and a number of other plays and shows. 

So What's Involved?

There are many different tasks involved in putting on successful staged productions, some that can be filled by newcomers, and others that require skills and experience built up over time.

Acting

Daunting at first, but if you have never "trod the Boards" before you can try with a small or non-speaking role, knowing that there are experienced and supportive people around you.

Creative

Lots of opportunity to express your creativity! From set design through costume and make-up to publicity.

Practical

Picture
People's creative ideas need turning into reality so all sorts of skills are required, such as:
  • Woodworking (for set construction)
  • Painting (for backdrops and other items)
  • Needlework (at times, quite extravagant costumes!)
  • Make-up
  • Lighting
  • Sound
  • Computer Skills (posters, flyers, programmes etc)

Organising

Picture
Certain key roles are ultimately needed to make each production happen. These include:
  • Director
  • Stage Manager
  • Business Manager/Producer
An assistant is often needed for one or more of these roles - a good opportunity to learn the ropes.

How do I get involved?

Contact us on the details found on our Contact page to get yourself onto our distribution list for publicity about our forthcoming productions or to enquire about getting involved. Or contact a member of the committee, or come along to one of our productions and ask any member of the cast or crew about becoming a member of the club.
