Current Shows
Stardust
Tuesdays & Wednesdays 14th February - 18th October incl. 8.15pm Matinee: Wednesday 16th August 2.30pm
Stardust is not just cosmic dust, it is often described as a magical or charismatic feeling, and in the all-new family variety show at the Babbacombe Theatre for the 2023 season, there will be magic with a large dusting of charisma from the 11 stars.
They say too when you get Stardust in your eyes it causes a pleasant dream-like feeling, and the surest way to make a dream come true is to live them, and with this production playing weekly throughout the year, you get to see first-hand, something that, One Way or Another, will bring this show to life with humour & heart, colouring your world!
It takes a great team to organise and orchestrate a successful theatre production, and Stardust will be no exception. What could be very ordinary becomes extraordinary when everyone gets the chance to shine. With the dynamic mix of a great script, combining classic variety from decades past with current and new topics, the cast performing on the Babbacombe boards will be looking to exceed audiences’ expectations throughout the year.

I’m Alive - A CELINE DION Celebration starring JANUARY BUTLER
Saturday 18th November 7:30pm
Following an incredible run of sell out theatre tours across the UK and Europe, multi-award winning tribute artiste January Butler is now taking her very own brand new theatre production show out into the world- and looking to delight Celine fans with an incredible live production having teamed up with musical director Andy Mudd and the creative team of Viva Blackpool.
When it comes to performing the incredible music and back catalogue of Celine Dion, January is undoubtedly No.1, having risen through the ranks of junior talent shows, to performing in sold out venues of over 2000 seats - January has studied, developed and honed her craft replicating the vocals, mannerisms and interactions. When it comes to sitting back and enjoying the live 'Celine' experience, January is only second to the real thing.
