25 - 28 June 2009

Now in its third year, Barnstaple’s Fringe TheatreFest is attracting growing national and international attention because of what it has to offer - a friendly and affordable environment in which adventurous small-scale theatre can flourish.

And what an adventure - every kind of theatre form you can think of and a few more besides. Urgent drama, vibrant comedy, challenging performance-art, bouyant dance-theatre, mesmerising magic, absorbing story-telling, life-affirming song and dance. Truly something for every mood.

Some of the comedy in particular will be “in your face” but age guidelines and content descriptions are there to make sure you know what you might encounter. Though of course part of the fun of a busy Fringe Theatre Festival is finding yourself outside your comfort zone.

Expect the unexpected and enjoy!

"Congratulations to everyone involved in this theatrical adventure which provides audiences with a chance to eat one theatre piece after another - and still, somehow want more."

"What is fascinating about seeing one show after another is that each one offers its own reason for coming into existence and each sets its own standard."

"We all had a fabulous time and are planning to come next year!"
