The Adventurer

From your answers, it looks like you live a very active life and enjoy discovering new and unusual things.

It all sounds pretty full-on, actually; when do you fit in time to come to the Octagon? Well, when you do, you probably like to try something new, whether it is a new type of performance or a fresh perspective on a well-known story. Experiencing live performances in our intimate spaces gives you an opportunity to get up close the art and have unique experiences you simply can’t get at other theatres!

You might not like to follow the crowd, but you don’t mind sharing your knowledge and letting others know when you find something new. So, thanks for spreading the word and continuing to build audiences for our live performance.

You probably don’t rely much on other people’s recommendations, but you might like to have a look at the events below, which we’ve put together with experience-seekers like you in mind.

Coming to the theatre is more than just a cultural experience for you – it is a chance to socialise with friends and family – so remember to check out our Kitchen & Bar next time you come along to a show!
