Cuffley is a village in south Hertfordshire some three miles east of Potters Bar. Its main contribution to history came in 1916 when german Airship SL-11 crashed onto the village having been shot down by Lt. Leefe Robinson of the Royal Flying Corps. To avoid upstaging this spectacular event, the formation of the Cuffley Players was delayed until 1933, when a drama society was formed to perform works written by one of its members. For the next 38 years, plays were presented by the company in'The Cabin', the last remnant of a farm which had once occupied the site. Conditions were basic; crossing backstage involved a walk through the car park. If it was raining, an umbrella might be provided. Then, in 1974, the field in which The Cabin stood gave way to housing, some shops and a brand new Village Hall (pictured). As well as a Health Centre and Library, the new structure boasts a spacious main hall. This includes a permanent Bar and well equipped stage, incorporating a raised scenery dock. The Players have taken full advantage of their new home. Many technically challenging shows have been made possible due to investment in professional sound and lighting equipment and a skilled backstage team. Our membership numbers around 100, comprising those wishing to be active in productions and those who are loyal supporters. If your interest is amateur drama done to a high standard within a small group, please get in touch. If wild horses wouldn't drag you onto a stage, no-one will try to coerce you into the limelight. We have regular informal coffee mornings - just watch the website for dates.
