Welcome to the Palgrave Players — where stories come to life, friendships are forged, and the spirit of community theatre takes centre stage!

We are a dynamic, award-winning amateur dramatics group based in the heart of Suffolk. Music is our passion, from Celtic nights with live musicians to big musical productions - and we’re only just getting started.

In 2024, we were thrilled to be recognised by NODA with a prestigious award for Best Musical and Best Production, a glowing tribute to the heart, humour and hard work of our entire cast and crew. This celebration of local talent reaffirmed what we’ve always known: Palgrave Players is more than just a group — it’s a family.

Looking back, we’ve brought audiences to their feet with shows like The Bakers Wife, Once The Musical, and the recent sell-out success of Country Nights. And ahead? We’re proud to be putting the spotlight on our upcoming production of Made in Dagenham— a story of determination, equality, and good ol’ British grit, packed with catchy tunes and bold characters. Whether you’re a seasoned performer or just curious to tread the boards for the first time, we’d love to have you along for the journey.

Keen to get involved? Whether on stage, backstage, front of house or behind the scenes, there’s a place for everyone at Palgrave Players. We welcome expressions of interest all year round — no experience necessary, just enthusiasm and a love of theatre.

Come join us — the curtain’s rising, and the next act is about to begin.
