CONNECTING OUR COMMUNITY THROUGH THE ARTS
The Blakehay Theatre is publicly funded by Weston-super-Mare Town Council and is situated in the heart of Grove Village in Weston-super-Mare. Run by a small team of dedicated theatre loving individuals who together have helped to create the venue you see today. From its very beginning in 1986 the Blakehay Theatre has been creating a theatre experience for everyone.
We create Theatre for the whole community, bringing national popular shows and treading subject matters onto the stage. To promote a creative hub for artists and performers in the local area and a cultural home for fans of the arts. The theatre’s uniquely diverse program of locally produced and touring work is curated especially for you. We are striving to create an inclusive creative community to make the most of a beautiful venue by using all of its spaces for artistic endorsers, and we are delighted you want to be a part of it.
An intimate venue at the heart of Weston’s cultural life that is more than a theatre; offering a creative and inclusive programme.
We may be little, but we have big ideas! The vision is to build a ‘big-city’ creative culture into the heart of the Victorian seaside resort of Weston-super-Mare. We need continued public support to help sustain and grow this vision through ticket sales, personal donations, sponsorship and help spreading the word! We are constantly working and adapting our programme each season to bring new and exclusive works to Weston-super-Mare, but we can’t do that without your support, so please spread the word and support our little theatre with big ideas!
