The project that came to be known as “Spotlight” owes so much to the fantastic team at Princess Theatre Torquay, and I can’t thank them enough for being so welcoming and in sharing their knowledge, experience and stories. Special thanks are due to Martyn and Eric who collectively know more about what makes a theatre tick behind the scenes than anyone. These works are dedicated to them.

Supported by Arts Council England with an award from the Culture Recovery Fund, Spotlight is one of four artist-led projects, focusing on the life and survival of regional theatres following the immense impact of COVID on the arts. Each theatre is a regional, “local” UK theatre in the Ambassador Theatre Group, which also operates theatres across the globe, from Broadway to the West End.

12 curated works from the project are installed over two floors at the Princess Theatre, Torquay, Devon.
