Galore Theatre Company are bringing a series of Adult Acting Workshops to The Flavel this spring/summer.
‘Galore Theatre Company is a vibrant, community-focused theatre group based in South Devon, working with both young people and adult actors across a range of projects and performances. Alongside our thriving youth theatre, we are really keen to create opportunities for adults to explore acting in a supportive environment.
Our adult workshops are designed for anyone aged 18+ who is curious about acting - whether you’re completely new or returning after time away. Sessions are relaxed and friendly, focusing on building confidence, developing skills and technique and enjoying the process without pressure.
Over six weeks, participants will explore character, voice, movement and simple scene work through engaging, accessible exercises, learning at their own pace while gaining a solid foundation in performance.
Each workshop will end with an optional showcase performance, offering the chance to share what’s been developed’.

Get ready for a magical picnic party!
We are transforming the Flavel auditorium into a festive village square for an exclusive screening of André Rieu’s spectacular annual Maastricht concert.
This isn’t your typical "hush-hush" cinema experience. We’re keeping things fun, informal, and family-friendly. We invite you to bring your own picnic food, dress for a summer's evening (or in a ball gown if you want!). Bring a blanket or cusions if you want to sit on the floor - there will also be pleanty of tables and chairs - your choice!
There’s plenty of room for little ones (or big ones) to dance in the aisles and for everyone to sing along to music you will recognise.
It’s the perfect way to enjoy a world-class concert without the formal dress code or the flight to Holland. Dust off your picnic baskets and join us for a celebration of music, community, and summer fun that all ages will love!

Dartmouth's Wartime Sounds
A spectacular live musical telling Dartmouth's wartime story
From the creative Dartmouth team behind the acclaimed Dartmouth in the Jazz Age (2025) comes a brand-new live show celebrating the music, memories and extraordinary true stories of a town at the heart of the Second World War.
Through unforgettable songs, spectacular dancing and stunning archive film and photographs from Dartmouth Museum, Dartmouth's Wartime Sounds recreates the atmosphere of a community transformed by war – from the uncertainty of 1939 to the excitement of swing-filled dance halls, the arrival of thousands of American servicemen, and the build-up to D-Day.
A night of music, dance and storytelling
An outstanding eight-piece live band, featuring the wonderful Louise Parker on vocals, performs the songs that kept spirits alive during the war, while Jenny Thomas's acclaimed Lindy Hop and Swing dancers bring the dance floor roaring back to life.
Enjoy timeless classics including: The White Cliffs of Dover, Lili Marlene, Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy, Bei Mir Bist Du Schön, You Are My Sunshine, Stormy Weather, In the Mood, Sing, Sing, Sing, We'll Meet Again
Experience wartime Dartmouth
This is far more than a concert. It's an immersive journey into wartime Dartmouth, where music, dance, archive film, photographs and live narration combine to recreate the sights, sounds and emotions of a remarkable period in the town's history.
Discover how local families, sailors, Wrens, American servicemen and evacuees experienced wartime Dartmouth—and how music helped them laugh, dance, hope and carry on through the darkest years.
Join the atmosphere
Guests are warmly encouraged to wear 1940s dress to help recreate the spirit of wartime Dartmouth. Whether you come in full vintage costume or simply with a hat, tie or floral dress, you'll be helping bring the town's history back to life.
Come for the music. Stay for the story. Leave with the soundtrack of wartime Dartmouth in your ears

SPIKE LEE DOCUMENTS THE FORMER TALKING HEADS FRONTMAN’S BRILLIANT, TIMELY 2019 BROADWAY SHOW, BASED ON HIS RECENT ALBUM AND TOUR OF THE SAME NAME.
‘Do we get stupider as we grow up?’ In his wildly popular Broadway show American Utopia, David Byrne reflects on human connections, life and how on earth we work through it. He joins the dots with his music and it all starts making sense.
Spike Lee here transforms the production into immersive, dynamic cinema that radiates with astounding performances, inventive contemporary dance and political urgency. American Utopia flows like an iridescent dream vision. Work by James Baldwin, Janelle Monáe and Kurt Schwitters is highlighted among exhilarating renditions of Byrne’s solo work, as well as Talking Heads classics. According to the multi-hyphenate, we love looking at humans more than anything else. Anti-fascist and anti-racist, Byrne illuminates our responsibility to care for one another as he and his co-performers burn down the house.

This is the rambunctious, ridiculous and totally true story of how the Minions conquered Hollywood, became movie stars, lost everything, unleashed monsters onto the world and then banded together to try and save the planet from the mayhem they had just created. Minions & Monsters is directed by Academy Award® nominee Pierre Coffin, a director of the first three Despicable Me films and the first Minions film. Coffin has also provided the voice for the Minions since their film debut in 2010.
The film is written by Brian Lynch (Minions, The Secret Life of Pets films) and Pierre Coffin and is produced by Illumination’s Academy Award® nominated founder and CEO Chris Meledandri and by Bill Ryan (executive producer, The Super Mario Bros. Movie).
In Disney’s live-action adaptation of the beloved Oscar®-nominated animated adventure, Moana (Catherine Lagaʻaia) answers the Ocean’s call and, for the first time, voyages beyond the reef of her island of Motunui with the infamous demigod Maui (Dwayne Johnson) on an unforgettable journey to restore prosperity to her people.
The film is directed by Emmy® and Tony Award® winner Thomas Kail (“Hamilton”); produced by Dwayne Johnson, Dany Garcia, Beau Flynn, Hiram Garcia and Lin-Manuel Miranda; and executive produced by Thomas Kail, Scott Sheldon, Charles Newirth and Auliʻi Cravalho, who voiced Moana in the animated features “Moana” and “Moana 2.”

Set against the backdrop of 18th century England, a massive Pox outbreak, and Jacobite Uprising - this is a timely and darkly satirical story of Sir Chauncey Savage (Grant) and Lady Savage’s (Foy) blind pursuit of a better life. It is not without a tinge of irony that their family name is the Savages, for this is a Savage House indeed. Filled with duels, decadence, and bloodshed, this is a madcap play on class and power.

Richard E. Grant, Claire Foy, Jack Farthing, Bel Powley, Kíla Lord Cassidy, Richard McCabe, Vicki Pepperdine, Pip Torrens

Following the 1924 expedition to Mount Everest which ended so tragically with the death of George Mallory and Sandy Irvine, The Epic of Everest, was released; an extraordinary silent film which documented both the climb and some of the earliest moving images from Tibet. IN 1924 the film was presented in the UK and Europe with a group of Tibetan monks who performed a prologue to the screenings featuring dance and Tantric music.
Join us here at the Flavel for a unique evening featuring Monks from the Tashi Lhunpo Monastery who will present a live dance performance then an introduction to ‘The Epic of Everest’ film followed by the screening of the film (87 minutes) including a Prologue and Blessing by the monks as was done 100 years ago when the film was originally shown.
Expect mesmerising chants of Buddhist texts to swirling costumed masked dances accompanied by ancient Tantric musical instruments: horns made from human leg bones, skull-drums, cymbals, bells and the great dungchen (long horns), as the monks evoke the atmosphere of sacred Tibet offering an experience of an ancient, endangered culture.

After his Oscar®-winning portrait of Robert Oppenheimer, Christopher Nolan moves from the atomic to the mythic with his adaptation of arguably the most famous ancient text. Homer’s heroic tale details the arduous, danger- filled journey of Odysseus, King of Ithaca, from the Trojan War back to his homeland, where his wife long-suffering wife Penelope awaits his return while fighting off a hoard of conniving suitors.
Along the way, the monarch and his dwindling army are faced with many of the Gods’ worst creations and temptations. Matt Damon leads an all-star cast in the must-see film of 2026.
"Nolan and his collaborators have constructed a strange, fearsome and trailblazing machine of a movie – by some distance, the best of the year so far."
