 Parish
Players was
founded in 1956 and is an amateur theatre group who meet regularly
on Tuesday evenings in St Mary’s Church Hall, Church Path, Merton Park,
London SW19.
We
aim to put on at least two productions a year – one a pantomime during
the first couple of weeks of January, followed by a production
in May.
Recent
summer productions have included Noel Coward's Blithe Spirit',
'Little Shop of Horrors', Shakespeare’s 'Twelfth Night', 'Oh
What a Lovely War ', ‘Hobson’s Choice’ by Harold Brighouse.
‘Arcadia’ by Tom Stoppard, Wilde’s ‘Importance of Being
Earnest’ and ‘Cabaret’.
Sometimes we put on
productions at other times of the year. For instance, we performed RC
Sherriff's ‘Journey’s End’ in November 1993, and in
2005 an evening of readings and songs to mark the two hundredth
anniversary of the death of St Mary's most famous parishioner, Admiral
Lord Nelson.
We again performed
'Journey's
End' in November 2008 to mark the 90th
anniversary of the end of the First World War.
