Drama, music and stars set for summer shows

Summer is here! And we have a cracking season of comedy, chills and music lined up for you.

Our summer summer season opens with The Three Musketeers (July 30 – August 7) featuring the team who staged a hilarious spoof of the Hound of the Baskervilles last summer, who are back with an equally madcap version of a classic, including baguette sword fighting and children’s scooters for horses!

Next comes a chilling ghost story, based on the Henry James’ novel Turn of the Screw (August 9-14), a Ray Cooney modern adaptation farce It’s Her Turn Now (August 16-24), and finally an Ayckbourn comedy classic Relatively Speaking (August 27-31).

To add a bit of extra stardust, our new president Suranne Jones will talk about her acting career and life in a Q&A session on August 4, while well-known actor Steve Speirs with entertain with comedy and anecdotes on August 18.

There’s a host of other family friendly shows, music acts, live screenings and movies on the way too.

Our new brochure is downloadable via this website, or pop into the theatre to pick one up – or hopefully linger and read it over a cuppa in our welcoming Hub coffee bar.
