Harley's Aunt Productions Presents

Sweeney Todd
The Demon Barber of Fleet Street

A grisly and exciting rendition adapted by John-Robert Partridge and Catherine Prout.

Based on the original Penny Dreadful Novel, A String of Pearls, this production is a deliciously spooky rendition of the story of Sweeney Todd.

Hard to believe that this quietly spoken, unassuming barber of Fleet Street is anything other than your average late 18th Century entrepreneur, divesting customers of excess facial hair.

Hard to believe that the formidable Mrs Lovett is anything other than a superlative chef, producer of the most addictively delectable meat pies in London.

Hard to believe anything of note since anyone who asks too many questions tends to disappear on long trips.

Thing is though, people are going missing. Terrified wretches are appearing in the Asylum, raving about razor blades and meat supplies. And from the large cavity under the Crypt of St Dunstans Church is emanating the most repulsive odour – really, it’s like something died down there…..

Join Captain Carlisle as his ship docks in London and he goes in search of answers.

With some adult themes, recommended for ages 15+ and not for the faint-hearted!

Tickets: £11 Early Bird (Until 31st Jan.)

£14 General Admission

Ticket prices include administration fee.

Join us for a very special Celebration to mark V.E. Day

In 2020, we will celebrate the 75th Anniversary of the end of the war in Europe.

75 years ago, millions of people took to the streets to celebrate peace and to look forward to a brighter future. This uplifting, heartwarming show is full of patriotic nostalgia to celebrate that event.

Hand clapping, foot tapping songs, singalongs, songs that won the war, songs to make you smile and to touch your heart and a good old fashioned cockney knees up.

Featuring songs from Vera Lynn, Gracie Fields, the Andrews Sisters, Glenn Miller, Arthur Askey and many more, it is a real trip down memory lane.

We will pay tribute to the Fallen and acknowledge their sacrifice.

And of course there is a rousing, flag waving Last Night of The Proms Finale with timeless classics that you are actively encouraged to join in with.

BRISTOL OLD VIC THEATRE SCHOOL - West Country Tour

By Thomas Hardy

Adapted by Mark Healy

Directed by Paul Chesterton

Designed by Max Dorey

We are delighted to be welcoming back the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School, their productions are always a firm favourite here at the Beehive and this will be no exception.

Based on the literary classic by Thomas Hardy, Far from the Madding Crowd is the story of Bathsheba Everdene. Having inherited her father’s farm, Bathsheba finds herself playing mistress in a man’s world. She is pursued by three very different suitors: Gabriel Oak, a sheep farmer, captivated by her fetching wilfulness; the handsome and reckless Sergeant Troy; and William Boldwood, a prosperous and obsessive landowner. But are any of them a match for the independent and spirited Bathsheba?

This timeless story of Bathsheba's choices and passions explores the nature of relationships and love - as well as the human ability to overcome hardships through resilience and perseverance.

Honiton Community Theatre Company return to The Beehive this summer with the hilarious family musical – The Addams Family.

The Addams Family is a comical feast that embraces the wackiness in every family. It features an original story, one that is every father’s nightmare: Wednesday Addams, the ultimate princess of darkness, has grown up and fallen in love with a sweet, smart young man from a respectable family– a man her parents have never met. Wednesday confides in her father about her feelings and begs him not to tell her mother. Now, Gomez Addams must do something he’s never done before– keep a secret from his beloved wife, Morticia. Everything will change for the family on the fateful night that they host a dinner for Wednesday’s 'normal' boyfriend and his parents.
