The Players of St. Peter

The Players of St. Peter Medieval Mystery Plays performed in the heart of London.

For more than sixty years, the Players of St Peter have been performing English medieval drama in London, and are, we believe, unique in offering annual productions from the main English mystery cycles. Around the beginning of December each year, we perform a selection of short plays by turns from the four most complete cycles (York, Chester, Wakefield and "N-Towne" – also known as "The Plaie call

ed Corpus Christi"). These plays tell Bible stories ranging from creation to the Nativity and beyond, as seen through medieval eyes. We have mostly performed in the City or East End of London but moved to a new venue, St Saviour NW3 (near Chalk Farm/Primrose Hill) in 2016

In particular we're still looking for a young woman to play Mary. A Mary who can sing would be ideal! Note that the Mary role in this cycle is a bit more interesting/substantial than in some of the others!
