Pull up a chair, lay down your blanket, grab the popcorn or divide into the picnic basket as this summer the cinema and theatre take a trip outside

As the sun sets and the titles roll, sit back to enjoy some of the biggest and well known shows performed at some of our not so typical venues

The Oval Bandstand Outdoor Cinema & Theatre

Dating back to 1904 when the soil was removed to create an amphitheatre and bandstand, The Oval Bandstand now provides the backdrop for screening of some of the biggest and most memorable films in history. Sit back in your deckchair, tuck into your favourite treats and enjoy the film

Shakespeare on the Beach

Changeling Theatre and Phoenix Community Events come together once again with the beach as their stage for Twelfth Night

Pull up a deckchair and sit back to watch this romantic comedy centred on twins Viola and Sebastian. Shipwrecked on an unknown shore, Viola is separated from her twin brother Sebastian. She thinks he’s dead. He thinks she’s dead. And everyone else has no idea which one’s which.
