The BRITISH PLAYERS is dedicated to bringing high-quality traditional British theatre to the Washington area, and since 1964 has been delighting audiences with a wonderful recipe of humour, patriotism, music, dance and dialogue, with material dating from Victorian times to the modern day. Originally formed as the BRITISH EMBASSY PLAYERS, the group performed regularly for 40 years at the British Embassy in Washington, often to sold out audiences. Since 2005 our new home has been the Kensington Town Hall, in Kensington MD, and while the venue has changed, the shows continue the tradition and excellence that we have become known for. We perform three to four productions each season, starting in the fall and ending in late spring with the annual Old Time Music Hall. All productions are by British playwrights or are British in content and include pantomimes, Christmas shows, mysteries, farces, and traditional music halls. https://britishplayers.org/donate to make a tax deductible contribution that will help us continue to provide this content to the masses.
