The Totnes Theatre Festival was born from a shared love of live performance and a desire to make it part of our vibrant little town. We wanted it alive in the streets, the museum, the pubs, and the unexpected corners of Totnes.
What started as a few local theatre people starting a conversation has grown into a grassroots celebration of creativity.
Our goal? To bring theatre to everyone in Totnes—whether you're a lifelong fan or just curious, catching a show at the Civic Hall or stumbling upon a pop-up performance in the laundrette.
We believe theatre is for all ages, all backgrounds, and all places. That’s why we are working with local performers, visiting artists, schools, and community groups to ensure this festival reflects the unique spirit of Totnes—playful, bold, inclusive, and just a little bit eccentric.
