Director – FPCA Panto

​Florence Park Players annual Panto

The Florence Park Players (FPP) are a Florence Park Community Centre (FPCA) group who perform the annual Pantomime during the last week of January (5 shows over 4 days), and occasional Variety shows and other performances throughout the year.
Membership of the FPP is automatic through involvement and is open to all those involved front and backstage in any production. It is recommended that FPP members become official members of the Florence Park Community Association & Social Club.
Any funds raised are for the FPCA and support its physical presence and endeavours within the community.

The Florence Park Players :
The 'Florence Park Players' (FPP) is the collective term for the people involved in any of the Florence  Park Community Centre (FPCC)  performances.
This includes the annual pantomime and occasional variety shows and other plays.
There is no formal membership. Anyone who takes part in any production becomes a FPP.
The centre provides the rehearsal and performance space. All performances are classed as FPCC events, and all profits go to the FPCC.
The FPP's are not an independent group from the Community Centre (and as such should provide feedback to the FPCC committee of trustees and talk through any substantial changes/projects with the committee).
The 2026 Panto (Camelot) was yet again a fabulous success!

The Florence Park Community Centre Panto has been running since 2015, being performed toward the end of January to brighten our winter months!
Rehearsals and involvement start around  September/October of the previous year and run through each week until the shows are performed.
Anyone and everyone can get involved and new people are especially very welcome: unfortnately at the moment we can only accommodate adult performers - but both adults and kids can get involved in set design & poster, costumes, front of house, script, props etc.
Get in touch any time for more information - or add yourself to our mailing list to receive information about plans for the next one and getting involved.
