Halloween is nearly upon us... pumpkins have been carved and scary stories are ready to be shared, so we thought it was time for a competition!

We're teaming up with the team behind the spine-chilling stage adaptation of Peter James' thriller Not Dead Enough to offer an exciting competition... and winners will win a signed copy of the best-selling novel!

With 50 days and counting until our festive extravaganza Dick Whittington kicks off, here at Cambridge Arts Theatre we are well and truly gearing up for the festive period and getting into the Christmas spirit… (*Oh yes we are!*)

EastEnders star Paul Nicholas is set to star as the dastardly evil King Rat alongside Cambridge’s number one Dame Matt Crosby, Robert Rees as Idle Jack and Holly Easterbrook in the title role.

Now our brilliant cast is announced, we thought we’d share some behind the scenes glimpses from the photo shoot with you all…  

The Battle of the Somme, 1 July 1916. British and French armies fought against the German Empire, and more than one million men were wounded or killed, making it one of the bloodiest battles in all of history. 2016 marks the 100^th anniversary of that fateful battle, and Headlong are on a UK tour with Frank McGuiness’ iconic war play Observe the Sons of Ulster Marching Towards the Somme.

To celebrate the launch of our new website, we're offering one lucky winner a year's Ensemble membership to our Supporters' Circle. Benefits of the membership include priority booking for our next season, or any new shows we put on sale, as well as exclusive offers just for you.  

To win this very special prize, just answer the following question: This year, Cambridge Arts Theatre celebrates its 80th anniversary. But who founded the Arts Theatre in 1936?

We’re delighted to bring our audiences, new and old, our re-vamped and much-improved website. We’ve worked very hard putting it all together, to give you an accessible, easy-to-use and engaging website that reflects the shows we bring to the wonderful city of Cambridge.
