Exeter Northcott is a city-wide organisation welcoming more than 100,000 people each year to live theatre and events at the Northcott Theatre on the University campus, and the Barnfield Theatre in the city centre. A registered charity, the Northcott also offers a wide range of creative opportunities, for and with the people of Exeter and Devon.
The Barnfield Theatre is home to Exeter Northcott's work with artists, young people, and communities. These include year-round opportunities for young people through the Northcott Young Company and Creatives; Elevate, a talent development programme for local artists; and bespoke projects developed with community groups, schools, and other charities.
Exeter Northcott Theatre is supported by the University of Exeter, Arts Council England and Exeter City Council.
