Shows

The Players' Theatre

We put on four kinds of events across a variety of venues:

-Public shows
-Member evenings
-Players' parties
- Private events and parties

PUBLIC SHOWS

These normally take place at the Museum of Comedy in Holborn. You can book online through their website (with a booking fee) or in person at the venue with no booking fee - check their opening hours before going.

MEMBER EVENINGS

In addition to our regular music hall shows, we also arrange special get-togethers where our members can come along to socialise and and enjoy 'extras' such as appearances by favourite artistes or video clips from our huge library of classic Players' performances.

PLAYERS' PARTIES

We usually put on a special summer party in June or July, and a winter party in December. These are open to members and non-members and are always sold out. The parties take place in the sumptuous surroundings of the Royal Air Force club in Piccadilly and include a delicious meal as well as a highly entertaining music hall show.

- You can book our parties online through this website.
- Payments are processed by Paypal - and you can pay using a Paypal account, debit card or credit card.
- There is no booking fee.
- We have a range of discount codes that allow people from various groups to benefit from discounted tickets.
- You can also pay by cheque or over the phone.

PRIVATE EVENTS AND PARTIES

We regularly put on custom music hall-based events for organisations such as Livery Companies, Ward Clubs and housing associations, as well as individuals. If you have an idea for an event, please let us know. While most of our special events take place in or around London, we can also travel further afield - in 2018 we put on a very successful event in Dorset, for example.









Throughout the lockdown of the Pandemic, we put on two successful virtual shows on YouTube which you can view by clicking the links below:

The Roebuck

Address
50 Great Dover Street
London
SE1 4GY


The Roebuck could well be one of Borough’s best kept secrets. Independently owned and loved by the locals, The Roebuck offers a broad selection of beers and ales from around the world, a freshly prepared menu full of locally sourced produce, an easy going atmosphere and a friendly welcome as standard.

Tucked away at the leafier end of Great Dover Street, The Roebuck balances being a little bit off the beaten track with being incredibly easy to get to: Borough tube is less than a five minutes stroll away, whilst a ten minute quickstep brings you from either Elephant & Castle or London Bridge.

Built to imposing Victorian proportions, the large, airy pub boasts an incredible upstairs function room, packed with period fixtures and an indeterminate charm.

The nearest tube station is Borough. Bus 21 from London Bridge stops outside.
