Fee-Fi-Fo-Fum... the tickets are selling one by one!

We promised ourselves we wouldn't say the "C" word (🎄) since it's only June, but we just had to share some giant news!

Believe it or not, 20% of the tickets for our upcoming pantomime, Jack and the Beanstalk, have ALREADY sold!

If you want to secure the best seats in the house for a magical, giant-sized adventure this November/December, please don't wait until the last minute to book. They are disappearing faster than a golden goose!

Saving the Best for Last: Happy National Volunteer Week!

As National Volunteer Week 2026 comes to a close, we wanted to leave you with a visual celebration of the incredible people who make Guide Bridge Theatre possible. Here's just a few faces from our amazing team in action (and sometimes at play 😁) - whether they're backstage, front of house, painting sets, or keeping things running behind the scenes.

Our volunteers: Proof that you don’t need a massive budget to put on fantastic theatre, you just need a team like this.

THANK YO for giving your time and energy to keep the Guide Bridge Theatre thriving! We quite literally couldn't open our doors without you.

Meet Eric. He's just trying to follow the rules, but the rules keep changing. Will he survive the night with his dignity intact? (Spoiler: Probably not).

THE OPPOSITE S*X is a wicked suburban farce where a meticulously planned dinner party goes spectacularly off the rails as the past catches up with the present.

Meet Eric, Judith, Vicky, and Mark when David Tristram's THE OPPOSITE S*X opens at Guide Bridge Theatre from Monday, 15th.
