But is panto just for kids… oh no it isn’t, panto is for everyone! There is something for all ages, an enjoyable evening of fun is guaranteed and not to be missed.

About the Paulerspury Players

Paulerspury Players are a well-known local amateur dramatics group that raises money for local good causes. Formed in 1988 they were almost exclusively drawn from Paulerspury Parish with one or two from neighbouring villages.

Over time their Membership became drawn from far and wide, such was the attraction of their shows and reputation for ‘having fun raising funds’. There are still many cast and chorus from Paulerspury in current productions, with the rest coming from miles around.

Their shows have benefited so many young people and adults since the beginning in 1988, not only from money raised but the experiences of taking part in community shows.

About their Fundraising

Last year, the Paulerspury Players made financial contributions to both Harry’s Rainbow and The Lewis Foundation

Harrys Rainbow (harrysrainbow.co.uk) support children and young people in the Milton Keynes and surrounding areas, who have been bereaved of a parent or sibling. As well as providing information and guidance, they also provide various bereavement support services. These include regular support groups, activities and trips, and individual tailored support, as appropriate.

The Lewis Foundation (thelewisfoundation.co.uk) source, package and hand deliver free gifts and support packs to adult cancer patients in hospital every week – items they might find difficult to buy themselves or simply cannot afford. It can be a sad, frightening and lonely experience for individuals undergoing cancer treatment. For many people in hospital The Lewis Foundation volunteers are their only regular visitors.
