Life at St George’s Players
Our Productions
Since 1934, we’ve been putting on shows in South East London. We usually produce two full-length plays a year at St George’s Church, from classic dramas to comedies. We’re a friendly group and we’re always looking for new people to join in.
The Writers’ Group
The Writers’ Group is a separate hub for anyone interested in writing. It runs alongside our main shows as a supportive space to share ideas and get feedback. We also put on “Scratch Nights” to see new work performed for the first time.
No Experience Required
We are 100% volunteer-run and open to everyone. You don’t need any previous theatre experience to get involved. Whether you want to try acting, help with lighting, or just give us a hand with set building, you’ll be very welcome.
