Ladies' Day

​

Thursday 23rd - Saturday 25th October 2025

The Spire, High Street, Poole​

 

The P&P Players return to The Spire, Poole, with Amanda Whittington's exuberant comedy, Ladies Day.

 

Work, love and life are just one long, hard slog for the fish-filleting foursome Pearl, Jan, Shelley and Linda. But their fortunes are set to change when Linda finds tickets to Ladies' Day at Royal Ascot the year it relocated to York.

 

Out go the hairnets, overalls and wellies as the four ditch work, do themselves up to the nines and head off to the races for a drink, a flirt and a flutter. If their luck holds, they could hit the jackpot - and more besides...


Ladies Day is not recommended for under 14s
All Seats for this show are Wheelchair accessible.

 

Performance Dates:
• Thursday & Friday 7:30pm
• Saturday 2:30pm & 7:30pm

 

Tickets available now at www.ticketsource.co.uk/pandp/e-lkoaym or telephone 0333 666 3366

Established as Parkstone Vocal and Instrumental Society in 1919, P&P’s Musical Theatre Society has grown to become one of the best known musical theatre companies in the Bournemouth & Poole area.
 
They have performed a variety of shows from Oliver, to 42nd Street, Sweeney Todd, to Jesus Christ Superstar as well as their famous Autumn Concerts & smaller cabaret performances across the region.

P&P’s resident choir The Singers was founded in 1998, originally for members of the Musicals section who wanted to sing (but not to dance!) They have since become well-renowned for their precision, close harmonies and eclectic programmes.

Under the musical direction of Jane McDouall, The Singers perform two main concerts each year; in July & December, and often join with other sections of P&P to perform at
 a variety of other events throughout the year.

The P&P Players were set up in 2005 for members who enjoy performing straight plays.


The Players have had huge success with  plays such as RebeccaSteel Magnolias and A Bunch of Amateurs as well as our regular Summer Cocktails and One Act Plays series, even performing a show penned by one of their own members; Changing Fortunes.
