Founded in 1967 and with many award-winning productions to their name, The Lowestoft Players are one of East Anglia's premier amateur theatre groups.
For over 50 years the society has been performing pantomimes, musicals, plays and revues to packed audiences from across the region.
The society usually performs two musicals, one play/revue and one pantomime per year. These productions are performed at 'The Marina Theatre', or at our own intimate 200 seater theatre 'The Players Theatre' which also doubles up as our own rehearsal and social venue.
The society currently has over 100 active members who all contribute in their own way, either on the stage, behind the scenes or helping with social activities.
We have members from all across the local area and we always welcome new members aged 16 and above. In pantomimes and some musicals, junior members are required. Separate auditions are held for junior members. For details on upcoming auditons please check our Facebook page.

Our home at the 'Players Theatre'
The Players home is at the 'Players Theatre', located in the centre of town, just around the corner from the Marina Theatre, having been based at our previous Headquarters in Stradbroke Road, Pakefield, for over 33 years
Following numerous hours of hard work from our very supportive membership, the former Seamans Mission has been converted into a spectacular home - the Players Theatre, providing our award winning society with an exciting future.
Whilst retaining its history, this magnificent building has been transformed into a versatile two hundred seater performing space, along with two rehearsal studios, a green room, a stage props store along with catering facilities and a licensed bar. The Theatre Space is available to hire and hosts all kinds of events, functions and performances.
