Our last productions
 The Autumn
2007 production was Macbeth; the dark medieval tale, driven by prophecies, with ambition, betrayal, bloody murder and witchcraft.
Our rehearsed reading of The Man from Toronto took place on September
8th. Directed/produced brilliantly by Mary. Part of our Jubilee
celebrations, The Man from Toronto was the first play ever performed by the
Compton Players after their formation in 1947.

 Our
spring production was Shakers Re-Stirred. Every town has its ‘Shakers’, the oh-so trendy cocktail bar where
everyone wants to be seen: from the check-out girls to the chinless wonders,
from the yuppies to the local lads. We are given a wickedly funny glimpse of
this world by the four long-suffering waitresses, offering a fascinating
view of the reality that lurks behind the plastic palms and Pina Coladas in
this revised version of the ever-popular play. You can read the Newbury
Weekly News review here.
Our 2006 autumn production was Nobody's Perfect by Simon Williams,
from 15th to 18th November. More information here.
The review from the Newbury Weekly News, by Trevor Dobson, is
here ("highly enjoyable production ...
Nick Roberts handled his huge role impressively ... Mary Warrington gave us
a well drawn character who we could really warm to ... H Connolly brought
out all the incorrigible but charming elements of this character ... Naomi
Read as Dee-Dee - this was an excellent, natural and well-acted performance
... another success for Compton Players).
