Play On!, 26th to 29th November 2025
When a local amateur dramatics group tries to put on a play, they find the challenges piling up; from the author constantly rewriting the script, to props that work when they shouldn't and props that don't work when they should.
Follow the group as they navigate their way through rehearsal of the dreadful show, the near disastrous dress rehearsal to the actual performance in which anything that can go wrong does.

Review of Play On!
26th to 29th November 2025
Review from the Newbury Weekly News.
Hilarious farce played with straight faces
"a hilarious farce... laughs aplenty... a great ensemble piece of theatre... this kind of comedy can be difficult to pull off but Boundary Players did it admirably well"
