ABOUT THE PLAYERS

The Wesley Players was an amateur dramatics group formed out of St Paul's Methodist Church, Bedford (North Befordshire Circuit). This included members from St. Paul's, Putnoe Heights and Newnham Avenue Methodist Churches. Eventually the St. Paul's Methodist Church and Newnham Avenue Methodist Churches merged and became Priory Methodist Chuirch, Newnham Avenue, Bedford. Productions started in 1966 and eventually finished in 1984.

The players came from a wide variety of occupations and age groups, all with the same intention, to entertain. The lighting, back stage and sound people plus the casts all came from the Methodist congregations. Over a long period of time a wide range of plays were produced from a wide variety of styles including period, comedy, relgious and contemporary theatre.
