Welcome to Cygnet Players
We are a fun and friendly amateur theatre society based in South West London.
Proms
Thurs 30th Apr – Sat 2nd May, 2026
St Barnabas Church, Southfields
After a successful inaugural concert back in 2023, Cygnet Players are delighted to bring
back Cygnet Proms in 2026. Like last time, this will be a concert to showcase an orchestra of talented musicians involved in the amateur theatre circuit, accompanied by a choir of singers. The theme of this year’s Proms will be “musicals through the ages”, with Act 1
focussing on the golden/classic era and Act 2 exploring more contemporary repertoire and Act 3 with modern musicals including this year’s Golden Globe-winning “Golden” from K-Pop Demon Hunters.
Proms
April 2026 – St. Barnabas Church, Southfields
Cygnet Players are thrilled to be performing D.W. Gregory’s gripping drama based on the true story of female labourers who were poisoned and killed by their factory’s radium-based paint.
A Chorus Line
September, 2026
Putney Arts Theatre
We invite you into the raw, electric moment when seventeen hopefuls are called to audition for the coveted spot in a new musical’s chorus. From the nervous tremor of “I Hope I Get It” to the soaring unity of “One,” the show captures the triumphs and heartbreaks that define every artist’s journey.
The musical celebrates the courage it takes to step into the spotlight, even if only for a fleeting moment. It’s a tribute to the dreamers who keep Broadway alive, reminding us that every dancer’s story matters – no matter how brief the role.

THE SOCIETY
Cygnet Players was established in 1997 as an amateur musical theatre group and has since developed into a full amateur dramatic society (NODA affiliated) based in South West London putting on at least two musicals and one play each year.
The society is a mix of people from every walk of life, aged from 16 to 60+, who share a common interest in theatre. We are proud of our high quality shows but we don’t forget that this is a hobby and that we should be having fun first and foremost. We’re a sociable bunch with rehearsals often spilling over into a session at the local pub and a busy social calendar!
