Scottish National Players
Scottish National Players, founded in Glasgow c.1920 by figures such as playwright John Brandane, was a non-professional touring theatre company which had the aim to pioneer the establishment of a Scottish National Theatre along the lines of the Irish model established by Dublin's Abbey Theatre around twenty years earlier. The company was founded using left-over funds from the short-lived Glasgow Repertory which had folded in 1914.
The Scottish National Players performed early plays by James Bridie, such as ''The Sunlight Sonata'' and Brandane's ''The Glen is Mine'', as well as an ill-fated production of Neil Gunn's drama ''The Ancient Fire''. A number of its productions were directed by the young Tyrone Guthrie. Sometimes criticised for its conservatism, Scottish National Players notably turned down Joe Corrie's early masterpiece ''In Time o' Strife'' in 1927. On the other hand it was instrumental in touring drama around local communities throughout Scotland.
In the early 1930s, James Bridie, as one of the board members, attempted to push Scottish National Players to professionalise. Although remaining supportive, he resigned after the board chose to retain its amateur status. Soon after this decision, he company began to lose direction and was effectively folded by the mid-1930s.
