Hook Players

Hook Players’ spring production for 2025 consists of two murder mystery plays performed on the same evening – an evening of Murder, Mystery and Mayhem!

Murder in the Village Hall by Emma Bevan features dastardly goings-on during a Parish Council meeting. With a cast featuring all the usual dead bodies, concealed relationships, double dealing and general red herrings, it could take the Inspector some time to find out who’s responsible.

In Hidden Meanings by Michael Snelgrove, the identity of the murderer gets more obscure as time goes on. Perhaps the Inspector may need help from Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson to solve this one?

Join in the fun!

It’s not all about being on the stage.

So much goes on backstage including set design, painting and building, making costumes, make-up, sound, lighting and special effects, gathering props or simply helping with the front-of-house on performance nights. If you are interested in getting involved, even if you don’t see yourself treading the boards,  please email . There is something for everyone.

If you can’t get involved this time, then please buy a ticket, sit back and enjoy the show.

Play Readings

We are actively seeking plays for future productions and holding play readings, where members read through possible scripts. If you are interested in attending, please send your details via for more information. These play readings are very informal and you don’t have to read if you don’t want to. It’s a great initial introduction to Hook Players and is a good opportunity to meet the group.
