2008 - 2009 Season

Enjoy great drama at the Sewell Barn

There is plenty for you to enjoy this Season which mixes classics with thrilling challenges. These include an amateur première, 'Gilgamesh' and a new local adaptation of the superb film 'A Matter of Life and Death'.  Because of audience requests our matinées are extended to cover the dark months of October to March.  This will be reviewed before next season, so if you want these to continue make sure you support them!  Plenty of choice, amazing low prices, complimentary programmes and free parking offer our audiences a real bargain.

Thanks to the Blyth Jex redevelopment we now benefit from extra parking with marked disabled spaces.  The school has also generously given us additional space within the Barn for a much needed extension to our toilets.  We are now fundraising for this project and donations will be very welcome.  Phone us for a Gift Aid Form, or pick one up from the Theatre and help to secure the future of this unique building for future audiences.

See you soon!

Clare Howard
Artistic Director

Details of workshops and audition venues and dates are now to be found on the Backstage page.

I am delighted that the Sewell Barn Theatre has put together another exciting and varied season for you.  This charming little theatre has a friendly and welcoming atmosphere and a great reputation for high quality drama.  For a really entertaining night out, the Sewell Barn is the place to be.
