who we are.

Welcome to the online home of The Centre Theatre Players. We are a group of amateurs with a passion to perform and entertain.

Since 1974, we have been entertaining the people of St Ives, Cambridgeshire with song, music, dance and comedy.

what we do.

Throughout the year we put on three productions. We kick start the year with our award winning pantomimes in January. Our pantomimes have been known to sell over 70% of tickets on the first day of sales. In May, we typically put on another show, whether that be comedy, serious or musical. It’s always a good opportunity for The Player’s to spread their wings and expand their performing repertoire. Our final performance of the year is our Charity Cabaret, held in September. Each year a local charity, or two, is chosen and the players perform comedy sketches, sing songs and local dance school Vicky Grant School of Dance perform dances all to raise as much money as possible.

what makes us different.

We have no subscriptions, no committees, no Prima Donna's, no huge egos and no politics... yes we know that's hard to believe! But these are just a few of the many factors that make The Players so different and unique

In the words of our final number in 2022, ‘We are Family!’
