Made in Somerset 2011
Festival of Theatre and Dance
4-11 October 2011
The Made in Somerset 2011 Festival is only weeks away and will showcase the best of Somerset theatre and dance, taking place in venues big and small across Somerset and featuring some of the county’s most exciting home grown talent.
Made in Somerset is all about supporting, nurturing and inspiring emerging talent within the county; stirring up debate and provoking innovation and big ideas from those already working in theatre and dance.
The Festival does this by showcasing new and specially commissioned theatre, dance and spoken word performances. Providing a platform for Somerset youth theatres to learn about the business and perform extracts of their work and by getting key people together in a room to bash our ideas and think big about theatre and dance in the county.
Finding the festival
Events take place all over Somerset, including Halsway Manor, The Merlin Theatre and The Brewhouse amongst others. There will also be a strong link to performances on the Live rural touring scheme, which means more shows in village halls.
