First production plays to sell out audiences!
We are delighted that ‘Unbroken Bonds’ our first production as an independent group and a charity, played to sell out audiences. The excellent reviews we received from recognised theatre critics reflect the audience feedback and comments at the end of each performance. Cast members are thrilled to have taken part in such a successful production. We couldn’t be more delighted.
What’s next:
Having already performed, ‘The Hiring Fayre’ a Street Theatre play, along with four stories, presented by our Story Telling Team on Poole Quay on 7th July, we have been invited back for the the Seafood and Sounds Festival on 14th &15th September. If you missed us the first time round, please come along and see us again.
Future plans
Help us to celebrate the 80th Anniversary of VE Day in Poole next year in our production of “Echoes of Love’ on 8th, 9th & 10th May 2025 a sequel to ‘Unbroken Bonds. Please watch this space for further information
Our aims...
Scaplen's Community Players is a local, historical theatre group that focuses on storytelling, drama and music. Our mission is to bring together local people from diverse communities to better understand our local history and shared culture.
Our main aim is to have fun doing the things we enjoy. As well as being involved in rehearsals and performances we also offer the opportunity take part in our activities. We aim to provide equality of opportunity for our members and wider communities to learn new skills or enhance existing skills in all aspects of theatrical productions, through the provision of workshops, informative talks, play, readings and demonstrations.

We have a lot happening this year. Our new meeting and rehearsal venue is at The Grasshopper, 139 – 141 Bournemouth Rd, Parkstone, Poole and we meet on Tuesday evenings at 7.30pm.
