Bedlam Fair

Bedlam – Getting back out there!

There will be a Bedlam Fair in 2021 – though we didn’t get a grant for it this year, we have resources left from the 2020 event that didn’t happen – and we will be in our usual stomping ground of SawClose, Kingsmead Square and around on Sunday June 27th.
Our experience in October last year showed us that we will have no problem running an event of suitable performances whatever the level of distancing required, so come as you are and we’ll deal with it together.

Full details of this event are downloadable at the bottom of this page and see individual act pages for the following:
Natural Theatre Company of Bath
