Owner description:
The BABBACOMBE THEATRE is owned and operated by the highly accredited professional company, Matpro Limited. Since 1986, the business has taken the venue from strength to strength, with their acclaimed variety shows now running virtually all year round.You will find magic in abundance this year, with the all-new show, SPELLBOUND. The show promises you an explosion of exhilarating splendour, a cast to surpass the boundaries of talent, with comedy, illusion, song and dance to enthral.Director and producer Colin Matthews has bought together for your viewing pleasure, stars of stage, screen and the music industry to enable him to conjure up a cornucopia of entertainment. Albeit he maintains his long-held custom of offering live variety shows in a traditional mix, which is backed by up-to-the-minute visual effects and lighting technology. Headlining is Phil Lowen, a zany, energetic, very visual and hilarious comedy impressionist. Joining Phil on stage is the diminutive, Dean Winters with his big voice and cheeky manner he is a versatile performer. As is the bewitching international, singing sensation, Keedie she is as adept at interpreting a pop song, as she is the most opulent of arias, she is extraordinary! With, Babbacombe favourite, West End vocalist Paul Cobley also able to push boundaries with his vocal chords, expect to be whisked away, as their voices will ring together as one.The British Magical Champion of Illusion is the shows special guest star. Daniel Dean has a natural flair to captivate you with his mastery for magic and illusion. Capturing the ambience of all that’s mystical is another stunning vocalist Stephanie Blackler. Winner of Torbay’s Got Talent in 2010 Stephanie will champion some superb show songs and win you over with her mesmerising stage presence.It is no mystery as to why the vivacious, Danze Magique can charm an audience. Daring are the talents of resident choreographer, Georgia Lee, her skilful musical interpretation combines well with the exciting arrangements of Pete Leonard and the versatile dancers make light work of her highly energised routines. The real secret to the magic of variety lies in the performances, and collectively everybody involved in Spellbound, including the junior cast Trix, want to turn illusion into reality.

Owner description:
Babbacombe Model Village is Torquay's most popular and visited attraction. Representing British life and culture over the last five decades all in miniature. Animated scenes, along with touches of very English humour bring it all to life. Taking you on a fun, informative and nostalgic trip through the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s to present day, it has appeal for all ages. Famous for its lovely setting in 4 acres of award-winning gardens that are a delight to experience all year round.
