You've got less than a week to catch our season of outdoor shows

We wanted to send you a quick reminder that our season of outdoor theatre in Malvern's Central Park which is coming to a close very soon.

Audiences have been loving our musical and feminist take on The Taming of the Shrew. Just ask the critics:

Innovative staging and creative musical and script additions ensure the show offers a fun and entertaining outdoor theatrical experience.
— Jenny Burns

During rehearsals, we checked in with the director of the show, Emma Austin, who gave us some insight into her process of developing the work. She reflected on what it took to make the show as powerful and entertaining as it is:

I’ve been ridiculously fortunate with this cast and creative team. Every person involved cares about and loves these characters. We’ve spent our time together digging into the strength, humour, love, and sheer gameplay sitting underneath every choice.

We'd love to have you down to Central Park to catch this thrilling production before it closes.

We've also been delighted to premiere an entirely brand new musical for young audiences: Treasure Island. This adaptation turns "Robert Louis Stevenson’s epic story published in 1883 into a bright colourful contemporary world of pantomime." Have a read of our director's notes for a little more insight into the making of the show.

We asked our opening audiences what they thought of the show, and the response has been fantastic; kids and adults alike are having a great time!
