FEATURE Barnstaple’s very own theatre festival will be returning this summer between the 23rd – 26th June. The festival is in its 15th year and brings Barnstaple to life with a mix of different performances. There is always something for everyone: storytelling, comedy, historical drama, dance, family shows and much, much more.

This year the festival will welcome 170 performances of over 60 different shows during the four days. Performances will take place in venues all over Barnstaple, from traditional venues like the Queen’s Theatre, to shows you happen upon in Barnstaple High Street. Gill, one of the festival directors, explains the venues and pricing: - “On-line sales for 6 ticketed venues opens on June 1st. In-person ticket sales open June 20th in The Queen’s Theatre foyer. Performances in 11 other venues are 'pay-what-youwill' - there will be a bucket collection at those events! The festival aims to make theatre affordable and accessible for all. It is made possible through the generosity of local businesses, in particular sponsorship from Nalu Homes, Rosie Bracher Solicitors, James Benning, Peninsular Management, David Wilson Partnership and Stevens & Willey. “We’re excited to welcome back some wonderful old favourites and discover some thrilling new theatre companies’ said Bill Buffery, co-director of the festival”.
