Welcome to a scorcher of a Summer season!
Sheila Hancock and Sandi Toksvig are back with The Portsmouth
Festivities after their quite fabulous performances at our

Boyfriend in 35 mm here where it was created in the 70s. Meet
Twiggy, Sir Peter Maxwell Davies plus the great man himself and
help us rebuild our splendid Victorian theatre.
