The Canterbury Players.

The Canterbury Players are based in - Canterbury - and perform at the Gulbenkian Theatre (University of Kent, Canterbury), Whitstable Playhouse and the Horsebridge in Whitstable, amongst other venues.

Established in 2003 after a union of two previously well known local drama groups:

  • Canterbury Dramatics Society (formed in 1923)
  • Playcraft (formed in 1951)

the Players have gone from strength to strength.

A few excerpts from the latest reviews:

  • "Ayckbourn's drama is typically, more than a riotous comedy. An unerring psychological insight which works alongside the crazy actions of his dysfunctional characters and this production was hugely successful in provoking thought as well as providing entertainment." Roleplay.
  • "This was an adventurous undertaking and the Players once again exhibited their exhilirating grasp of a challenge and professional skills in realising its success." La Ronde.
  • "This was a resoundingly successful production of a play that could, without the company's dramatic skills, have floundered in the first act." The Accrington Pals."
  • "All-in-all this was a thoughtful, successful production." The Birthday Party.
