Business Support Helpline

We are an award winning, family-friendly, non-profit, theatre & film company, with an offshoot actors agency, from the beautiful fishing port of Brixham; Devon (in South West England).The South Devon Players is a team of ambitious, dedicated, semi-professional, and professional performers, who are working on creating careers in theatre and film. We always welcome new members of our team who share our ethos, and who, regardless of previous experience, want to join a lively, friendly, hardworking team of performers, hone old skills & develop new ones, and create high quality new stage and film productions.

We perform theatre shows in Brixham, around Torbay, and South Devon, based on historical events, classical stories and mythology. We also make period drama films and web-series productions, around Devon and Cornwall. for online broadcast.

We also run a casting agency for experienced, vetted, local actors as well, as a service to people in the local area. This is fee-free . Any funds raised by the agency service go back into our productions and projects.

We were founded in late 2005 by two Brixham performers, and performed our first production in the summer of 2006. Since then we have gone from strength to strength, and are now growing rapidly, with awards won and a rapidly increasing member base, an appearance on a national BBC 1 TV programme, and sponsorship from London for our recent non-musical adaptation of Les Miserables.

We are members of NODA (the National Operatic & Dramatic Association), and Brixham Chamber of Commerce.
