theatre - 5Welcome to the Partington Players Theatre,  a live theatre situated in the heart of Glossop, in the High Peak of Derbyshire, UK.   We present a week-long run of 6 plays each season, together with visiting productions, music and a lively social club.

The Partington Theatre Annual One-Act Play Festival takes place at the end of our season, in early July, and attracts a wide variety of entries from near and far away. All amateur groups are very welcome; adult and junior,  schools and colleges, established drama societies and groups of friends rehearsing in someone’s front room. Entries have ranged from premières of brand-new writing to excerpts from Shakespeare. You name it.

For details of auditions see our backstage section. Our auditions/readings are open to all;  you do not need to be a member.

We have a selection of costumes for hire;  see our backstage section.
