Maleny Players are hosting monthly play readings, held on the last Friday of each month. Participants are allocated roles and read scripts aloud, fostering a creative and community-oriented environment. This initiative has a history of inspiring members to engage further with theatre productions.
Did you know 2026 is the year of the Horse. Fiery and passionate, it signifies ambition, creativity, and forward movement.
So why not step out and join Maleny Players Play Reading? Held on the last Friday of every month from 9.30am to midday.
Play Reading has been happening in Maleny for many years, organised and run by Players icon Jill Morris. Last year Pat Lovell (pictured) took over the reins and has cantered along with a variety of plays by new and older playwrights.
The idea is that a play is chosen and whoever turns up is allocated a part or maybe a round robin is used, depending on the number of participants. Next comes the reading from the script - great fun!
Usually there is a break at the end of Act One, time for a cuppa and a chat or discussion before continuing with the rest of the play.
Many past and present participants have continued onto the stage, to direct or to write several of the wonderful productions put on by Maleny Players every year. A welcoming, friendly community theatre.
So if you are at a loose end and would like to try something a bit different, why don’t you give Pat a call or just turn up on the first Friday of the month.
