Sue joined the Wraysbury Players in 2016 when she retired from her career as a scientist.

Known as spreadsheet Sue, she likes organising and is often seen running Front of House.

She has also performed in several productions: as an evil dog in Panto, a love interest in a murder mystery and Yvette, the waitress in ‘Allo, ‘Allo. Sue has also directed Blithe Spirit in 2018 and has produced Wraysbury’s Got Talent for the last four years.

We welcome Mayzie as another newcomer this year to Wraysbury Players and her first role on stage in panto.  Away from learning her lines, Mayzie is a keen guitarist as well as currently attending college training as a chef.  Ultimately, she would like to pursue a career working with animals, so perhaps the role of Dormouse is an appropriate start to her ambitions.

Corinne is a stalwart of The Players, taking on the role of DBS Contact and supporting Wraysbury's Got Talent and often the Front of House Manager.  That's not to say that Corinne doesn't enjoy an occasional role on stage, being easily persuaded to portray a German Frau in the Pied Piper to a French Madame in Allo Allo.  

Tim was approached by Wraysbury players ahead of their ‘Wizard of Oz’ pantomime in 2025 at short notice when they needed someone to help with lighting and sound. Having produced and tech-directed many shows for his secondary school (even after leaving!), he was excited about the opportunity and glad to have a new outlet for his love of live-production.

Tim is passionate about all things production, media & tech with a particular focus on photography & cinematography. He hopes to continue to support Wraysbury players with their other upcoming productions and is co-directing the 2026 panto ‘Alice in Wonderland’

John, aka Ginge, is an incredibly well-known resident of Wraysbury who can often be heard singing his Rat Pack compilations at various events around the pubs and clubs.  Over the last few years he has been instrumental as both a judge and compere at our Wraysbury's Got Talent shows.  We finally wore him down to come an see us preparing for this year's panto....and got him hooked!   We are thrilled that John is stepping up this year to his first stage role as the Knave of Hearts.  The question is, will he be wearing tights?

Audrey is a much respected Founder Member of Wraysbury Players back in 1966.

Having been a professional Dancer, the call of the Bright Lights and the Backstage excitement has never left her.  Starting the Wraysbury Players gave her the opportunity to continue with all aspects of Theatre, with the beginnings of performances in a tiny wooden hut on The Green with metal chairs to what we have to offer today on stage in the Village Halls.

Audrey continues to support The Players to this day by attending all productions.

Amalia is new to The Wraysbury Players this year, but she is certainly not new to the stage! Having acted since she was four years of age, Amalia has trained and performed all over Berkshire and London. She currently studies Drama and Theatre A Level (alongside English Literature and Politics), aspiring to pursue a career in acting and applying to drama schools in 2026!  We wish her much success and hopes she will join us on stage again in the future.

Amy has been a key part of our pantomimes for a number of years now, always confidently delivering her roles in the chorus but now, for the first time, taking on a major character in the main cast as Alice in Wonderland.  We are supremely as excited, as is Amy, for the development of this role and look forward to seeing her in many performances in the future.

We go right back to 2022 when Toby first came to us in the chorus for the Pied Piper.  Since then he has been in each pantomime, increasing his presence on stage.  He is very excited and grateful to be icast this year in Alice in Wonderland as the March Hare and hopes that he will be part of the Wraysbury Players for many years to come.

Ronnie has always loved performing and has been involved with local productions for as long as he can remember, growing up on the Wraysbury stage. He’s made some brilliant friends, young and old, along the way. In addition to acting, Ronnie is an aspiring filmmaker and hopes to forge a career in the industry. He is co-directing the 2026 panto ‘Alice in Wonderland’

Steevan has lived in the area for over 25 years and loves performing, whether it's with Wraysbury or Datchet, in Panto, or plays. He is always keen to challenge himself on and off stage, and the players have given him the chance to play a wonderful array of parts.

In a moment of madness, he became a Datchet Parish Councillor, too! 

Nigel is a longstanding member of Wraysbury Players, taking on so very many roles over the years including Baron Hardup in Cinderella.  Stepping away from acting on stage, his talent currently runs to building our sets and taking all the official photographs for our many productions.  We only have to share a vision with Nigel for him to produce an amazing array of stage props and designs.

Ambar joined the Wraysbury Players in 2022 after moving to the village and has loved being part of the group ever since. Her debut performance was as ‘Dorothy’ in Murdered to Death, which proudly received a NODA nomination. Ambar has been passionate about performing from a young age and holds a BA in Musical Theatre. While she’s currently taking a break to enjoy time with her new baby, she looks forward to returning to the stage with the Players in the future.

Nick has forgone the traditional male midlife crisis, by instead returning to the stage and rediscovering his inner thespian!

He was heavily involved in drama both at school and university, but there followed a near 30-year hiatus, which was largely filled by his full-time job as a secondary school special needs teacher, plus his family responsibilities as a husband and proud father of three daughters.

He joined his local am-dram group, the Datchet Players, in 2019 and got involved with the Wraysbury Players for the first time four years later. His favourite roles so far have been that of doppelgangers Colonel Charles Craddock and Cardew Longfellow in Murdered to Death and Secondary Cause of Death. He has ambitions to direct with the Wraysbury Players in the future, so watch this space...

Carol is our longest standing member of Wraysbury Players of over 40 years, who still performs on stage and takes on the role of director for many award winning plays and pantomimes over the years.  Carol has a wealth of experience with singing and acting, which proves invaluable within the group.  Most recently Carol can be seen as a judge on Wraysbury's Got Talent!

When talking about Edward we always go back to the day he accompanied a friend to auditions, with absolutely no intention of putting himself forward (way too shy).  However, we coerced him into joining our chorus on stage in the Pied Piper and he hasn't left us since.  Edward's confidence on stage is incredible and we are delighted to see him in yet another main cast role in this year's pantomime as Mr Rules in Alice in Wonderland.  We hope to see Edward on stage with us for many year's to come.

Jacqueline enjoys immersing herself into the character parts, having played Madame Arcarti in Noel Coward's Blithe Spirit, Mrs Croppley in Vicar of Dibley, various comedy roles, serious roles, and a few times as ‘Wicked Witch' in Panto. 

James "Jim" Minter joined the players in 1983 after a plea for help backstage for the production of The Wizard of Oz.

Four years of helping backstage passed before he was persuaded to appear on stage and was hooked!

Since then, Jim has appeared in numerous productions, played Dame in many pantos with comedy being his favourite choice, Jim has also directed a number of plays and Pantomimes.

Taking an active role as Chairman of the Players for twelve years, until standing down in October 2014, Jim remains a keen and positive member of the group.

A member since 1986 Lesley started off assisting backstage before becoming involved Front of House, eventually taking on the role of Front of House manager.

Lesley has also been a production co-ordinator and has co-directed two plays and two pantomimes. Although not keen to appear on stage herself Lesley is a dedicated member of the group.

Lili joined the Players in 2023 to help with costumes for the Jack and the Beanstalk Panto. She’s been enjoying helping with costumes and props ever since!

We met Daniel when many of us performed with Datchet Players' production of A Christmas Carol.  His comedic timing and somewhat eccentric personas have led to him taking on many roles from being a double agent with a ridiculous French accent to pantomime roles such as the Wizard of Oz.  Away from the stage, Daniel is a college teacher and recording artist with his love of the spoken word and performing with his band.  

Tilly has been a valued member of Wraybury Players for several years now, mainly in the chorus but also took on the mischievous role of Waylon in our pantomime, Rapunzel, a couple of years ago. Aways from her school studies and acting as our Princess of Hearts, Tilly enjoys playing the piano and being 'arty'.

A local girl whose family used to run the Eton Tea Rooms Anastasia has been involved in local Am Dram since 2021 and has been featured in plays and pantos. She’s an avid theatre fan and baker, and has become known for her 'passionate' Scottish, Italian, and Greek heritage and sponge cakes.

Anastasia loves the friends and acting challenges that Wraysbury players have given her. 

Dan first arrived in 2008 as a late stand in for their panto of Jack and the Beanstalk and hasn't looked back since. Now he has appeared in almost 40 plays and pantomimes for Wraysbury which includes large roles in big hit plays such as Blithe Spirit, Allo Allo and Vicar of Dibley of which he was nominated for best actor from NODA.

However, the role Dan was born to play every year is the 'Village Idiot' character in the groups yearly pantomime. Aswell as Wraysbury, Dan has also appeared on stage for neighbouring groups Marlow and Datchet.

Dianne joined the players in 2025 after watching her son in the chorus of the Wizard of Oz Panto. Dianne is part of the backstage crew, and her first show was Allo Allo 2. She is excited to help with the upcoming production of Alice in Wonderland.

Coming Soon!

Ben has been a member of Wraysbury Players, as a director, actor, writer, Chairperson, writer....he's done it all.

Whilst he has acted in a variety of plays, it is perhaps seeing him in panto that makes us laugh the most.  Frequently the Dame and more recently the Cowardly Lion in Wizard of Oz.

He has won a number of awards over the years with writing and producing our memorable productions of Vicar of Dibley and Allo Allo.   We are nagging him constantly to produce sequels to both these comedies.

Claire joined Wraysbury players in 2008 - after watching her husband Ben tread the boards over the years and thinking ‘I can do that!’

Her favourite productions that she’s been involved in are Ladies Day and Ladies Down Under. Claire’s directed a couple of pantomimes with her daughter Ellie, which were hard work, but worthwhile to watch everyone enjoying themselves.

In her spare time she loves researching her family tree and currently learning Scottish Gaelic.

Daisy first joined the players as part of the chorus in 2019, but realised she much preferred behind the scenes, so has been designing and making the sets and props and helping backstage ever since. She has tied her work at Wraysbury Players into her college coursework, and hopes to peruse a career in designing for stage and screen! In the most recent production of ‘Allo ‘Allo 2 Daisy gave the stage another go, which she enjoyed but thinks she’ll stick to backstage going forward! She is co-directing the 2026 Panto ‘Alice in Wonderland’

Having been first introduced to The Wraysbury Players aged 10, 5 years later Ellie has worked her way up from the chorus to star in the last four pantomimes!

From comedic duos to playing Dorothy in our upcoming panto, Ellie has loved every minute of her acting journey and has made so many friends along the way! She can't wait for the next opportunity to step into the spotlight!

Rose has been involved in Wraysbury Players since 2019, despite only being 15! She initially joined as part of the pantomime chorus in Snow White but has worked her way up through the ranks and is now delighted to star as Dorothy in our very own Wizard of Oz!

Rose is currently studying drama at GCSE level and hopes to continue studying Performing Arts alongside Biology and Chemistry for A levels next year.
