about us

last production

Founded in 1934, Amateur Players of Sherborne (APS) are one of the oldest groups in the area. We have presented over 180 shows and have received a number of awards. Since 2018 we have mostly performed in the Sherborne Studio Theatre.

In June 2025 we presented Patrick Barlow's adaption of The 39 Steps. This hilarious parody, complete with puppets, shadow theatre and an added can-can dance that will long live in the memory, was much enjoyed by packed audiences.

Formerly Coombe Church ('The Tin Tabernacle'), this became our home in 2011. It was converted into a theatre in 2017, and the Sherborne Studio Theatre is now a cosy, intimate little venue that can accommodate audiences of up to 52.

You are very welcome to become a member of APS, whether you want to act, work back stage or just enjoy our company. If you would like to get involved in staging a play or just enjoy an entertaining night out, we will be delighted to hear from you.
