Marlborough Players is performing Sheila's Island, a comedy by Tim Firth, at Marlborough Town Hall from 19 to 21 November. The play follows four businesswomen on a team-building weekend in the Lake District that takes a wrong turn, leaving them stranded on a fog-bound island with no escape.

As personalities clash and secrets emerge, the women must confront old rivalries and find a way to work together. Tony Michael, director of the production, described the play as 'a tale of friendship, rivalry, survival and the dangers of putting four strong-minded women in the same place with no way home'.

The production is part of Marlborough Players' 20th anniversary celebrations, marking two decades of amateur theatre in the town. Performances begin at 7.30pm with doors opening at 7pm. Tickets are priced at £10 and can be purchased from the White Horse Bookshop on Marlborough High Street or online at wegottickets.com/MarlboroughPlayers.
