A Decade of Musical Magic from Studio Theatre

Studio Theatre celebrated 10 years of its popular summer musical shows by performing a selection of memorable showstoppers from the last decade at the Landmark Theatre, Ilfracombe, devised and directed by Lee Baxendale.

Performances were on:

• Sunday 10th August - Landmark Theatre, Ilfracombe
• Sunday 17th August - Landmark Theatre, Ilfracombe

Director Lee Baxendale writes:

Over the last decade at, or should I say first decade of, the Landmark, over 150 members of Studio Theatre have performed over 500 songs, from over 50 different shows; both as full scale musicals and as part of our Summer Sunday Cabarets and fundraising shows in the adjoining Pavilion.

Tonight we relive some of those magical musical moments that have helped us to entertain thousands of people. One thing that all of the shows, from which you will see extracts tonight, have in common is the stage and surrounding areas of The Landmark Theatre.

I hope we have chosen songs that will keep you entertained for another Summer Sunday.

I would also like to take this opportunity, on behalf of Studio Theatre, to thank some people; firstly, the casts, directors and production teams of all of the shows that we have undertaken here; secondly, all of the staff members of North Devon Theatres who have helped over the years; and, finally, you, the audience members, who have continued to support us in all that we do.

Here’s to the next decade. Now sit back and enjoy!
