The Gateway Theatre Seaton

15/09/2026

Ever heard of a ‘scratch’ night?

Instead of a restless night of itching, let's picture an evening of eclectic and wonderfully entertaining work-in-progress theatre and live performance.

But why share work in progress and not the finished article?

To finely shape and hone a performance piece, it doesn’t just take hours of editing and rehearsing, it also needs the shared energy of a live audience. Your real-time reactions and genuine feedback provide a vital step in the artistic process for those on stage.

From Devon With Love is Villages in Action’s rural scratch programme and this year we’re teaming up with The Gateway Theatre in Seaton for a varied feast of thought-provoking, brave, fun and tender theatrical work.

Expect to see something you've never seen before. Come curious and leave inspired!
