The Country Players in Wootton was formed in 1977 and until the pandemic in 2021 has presented three productions a year at the Village Hall.

Covid-19 meant a sudden halt to theatre productions, over the past year the group has been working to get going again.

The Country Players’ first production is by Spelled by Adrian Cale. It’s a comedy farce about a coven of witches who hire out their local community centre for their weekly coven meeting.
