Home grown theatre, made in Balcombe
We are a local drama group, formed in 2004 after a community based production of “Oh! What A Lovely War” at the Victory Hall.
Victory Players’ members share a passion for creating theatre, and we come together when we can to produce plays, musicals, and less-traditional events — for the Balcombe community.
With some outstanding talent, creative teams and dedicated people, we’ve been able to perform some truly varied productions, including major musical theatre like “My Fair Lady”, serious drama such as “A Man For All Seasons”, and popular comedies “Noises Off” and “The Importance of Being Earnest.”
The Victory Players also pop up with what we call ‘Small Victories’ such as our Murder Mystery dinner nights, and we have provided entertainment, and a Christmas for village events, including a wine tasting night and the Village Fete.
Recent productions include Murder at the Manor – a 1920s party and Murder Mystery event. Shakespear-ience, a fun evening of Shakespeare-themed entertainment in collaboration with Funtastic Tales children’s drama club. A Christmas Carol, street-theatre style, which raised £1,500 for local charities.
Current Production
The Victory Players presents, a comedy by Michael Frayn
Audience is a lively farce in which the spotlight shifts from the stage to the stalls. Amusing, fast-paced and at times surreal, the play explores the chaos that unfolds when a theatre audience unexpectedly becomes the centre of attention.
