Our huge thanks to Players Theatre for their unstinting support with the 2019 One Act Play Festival , we had a great week but we can’t do it without committed support from the host theatre and as you can see from the Adjudicator’s Award, we received that in spades, so thank you Players Theatre.

We saw a terrific week of very high standard theatre  and whilst congratulations are obviously extended to all winners, congratulations and thanks are also extended to all the entrants for taking part in this competitive festival and all that getting a play together involves. This contributes to the value of this vital festival because One Act Plays Rock! – keep writing them and keep on entering them. We look forward to seeing you next year. The winners’ list for 2019 is below. Thank you.
