Our venues consist of: Queen Theatre, Barnstaple (650 seats), Landmark Theatre, Ilfracombe (450 seats), the New Theatre Peterborough (1,100 seats) and the Key Theatre Peterborough (112 & 360 seats). We are the largest new theatre entrant to Arts Council England’s National Portfolio (23-26) and are working with a number of high-quality partners such as Birmingham Royal Ballet, The National Theatre the RSC and Paines Plough.
We receive an annual grant of £1 million a year for the current three-year funding cycle from 2023-24 to 2025-26 to ensure that Landmark Theatres can deliver an ambitious artistic mission, driving quality work, inspiring and developing new talent for and with the audience we serve across North Devon and Peterborough. This funding is a great vote of confidence in our potential to deliver to areas previously underinvested in culturally. We are now building a new producing theatre organisation outside London – for the first time in a generation.
The company is built on an innovative business model and demonstrates strong foundations in income generation and diversification. We pride ourselves on an in-depth understanding of the locations in which we operate. Working in areas of lower cultural engagement across the UK. We are respectful and responsive to local priorities, deliver innovation and work in partnership to empower our communities. We deliver a breadth of creative activities and ways in which our communities can engage, whether that be as an audience member, participant, decision maker or through developing talent.
Landmark Theatres is a value-led organisation: innovate, include, collaborate, empower, sustain. We are committed to being diverse and inclusive and to making our workforce representative of different backgrounds and experiences of the communities we serve.
