Sea settings and grand houses add to drama of open-air theatre dates

Open-Air Theatre brings a diverse programme of performances set against the landscapes of Baggy Point in Croyde and Arlington Court in Barnstaple. From June to September, visitors can enjoy a variety of shows, from classic plays to family adventures.

Alice East, senior visitor experience officer for the National Trust in North Devon, said: "Live theatre feels extra special when it's set against the sea at Baggy Point or in front of the grand house at Arlington Court. It's a great way to enjoy summer evenings in North Devon's incredible landscapes."
