Thame Players Invite You to Take a Look Around

If you’ve ever wondered what’s involved in putting on a theatrical production and how it’s staged, head to the Thame Players theatre on Saturday 1 February.

The Thame Players are throwing the doors wide open to welcome everyone who’d like to look round the theatre and find out what goes on behind the scenes.

See how the theatre works – from front of house to backstage and meet some of the (often highly skilled) volunteers who work behind the scenes.

Whether you’re interested in treading the boards, using your tech or DIY skills, helping with costumes and props, or greeting audiences at front of house, the open day is the place to find out how to get involved and receive some hands-on training. 

Wayne Gibson, Open Day coordinator at Thame Players, said, “The theatre is made up of a community of people with different skills who make the magic happen. We’re looking forward to welcoming anyone and everyone from Thame and the local area on Saturday 1st February, when there’ll be opportunities to find out what’s involved in putting on a show and how the theatre ticks.

“You’ll see what we do and how we do it, from acting and directing to set building, sound & lighting, and much more. So please come and see us at the Players Theatre on our Open Day – you’ll learn a lot and have a fun experience too!”
