The renowned Babbacombe Theatre remains the only unsubsidised theatre in the South West and not only does it have the longest season in the country running from February until October but with the regular Christmas Show the theatre now stages weekly productions in every month of the year except January. 

In addition to its own highly acclaimed productions it attracts many big name touring shows, which recently have included Jimmy Tarbuck, Des O'Connor, Lenny Henry and Jethro. Even Bruce Forsyth appeared, to the total surprise of the audience, at the theatre where he was discovered over 50 years ago, whilst filming his autobiographical television documentary. 

Babbacombe Theatre now prides itself in actively seeking out new and versatile performers for their productions whilst developing young talent from the South West of England; this has resulted in success internationally and in the West End for acts that have appeared in the shows at this lovely theatre situated on the beautiful Babbacombe Downs. 

Facilities at the venue include: 
- Level Access
