Landmark Theatre, Devon


The Landmark Theatre is an award winning theatre in the North Devon coastal town of Ilfracombe. Of unusual (even controversial) double conical design, it is locally referred to as Madonna's Bra, a reference to its shape and that of an iconic bra worn by the singer Madonna. It was built to replace The Pavilion Theatre, a Victorian building partly destroyed in a fire during the 1980s and later demolished. This theatre, along with the Queen's Theatre, Barnstaple is managed by the North Devon Theatres' Trust, a registered charity promoting the arts (including dance, drama, literature, music and singing) in North Devon.

On Monday 23 January 2017, it was announced that North Devon Theatres Trust which owns this theatre and The Queens Theatre in Barnstaple, had gone into administration. All future performances at both theatres are cancelled until further notice.
