Most months bring familiar events: February features Valentine’s Day, April celebrates Easter and December marks Christmas. For people in and around Louth, January means one thing… panto season at Louth Riverhead Theatre. Don’t miss our annual family pantomime; read the latest review of Jack and the Beanstalk and book your tickets for a magical, unmissable theatre experience.
Louth Playgoers Annual Pantomime Jack and the Beanstalk will be presented in January at Louth Riverhead Theatre.
From the same team that brought you Aladdin - the hugely successful Easter Pantomime - Jack and the Beanstalk blends classic Pantomime characters with hilarious skits, slapstick fun, and memorable songs and dance numbers.
We recently held auditions to find some talented performers to play the cast of characters, and we have assembled a stellar cast!
For the past 14 years, the Scratch Night has been a launchpad for new writing, showcasing fresh talent and producing, fittingly, 14 brand new plays (well, 13 and one in the making now). This month’s event saw a clear winner: James Sweeney, whose play Make It Count captured the audience and judges alike, winning by a landslide. With the play now set to be developed into a full production in June 2026, we sat down with James to learn more about his journey, his writing, and his experience with the Writers Workshop.
The featured artist for January is Louth artist SAM WALTERS.
Sam graduated in 2021 with a First in Fine Art from Aberystwyth University and since then she has been busy developing her practice across multiple disciplines, back home in Lincolnshire.
Her work takes the form of semi-abstract landscapes and is inspired by remembered and imagined views, mostly from Wales and in the Wolds.
The featured artist for December is TREVOR BOUNFORD and his exhibition RIVERHEAD TO HUMBER
Trevor is an artist, illustrator and author now based in Louth. His art has been exhibited in the Royal Academy and at the Mall Galleries in London, and in a number of regional galleries.
The featured artist for November at the Riverhead Gallery is DONNA FARMER.
Donna Farmer is a self-taught mixed media artist whose work explores the expressive interplay of colour, texture and form. Her vibrant compositions reflect a joyful and experimental approach to contemporary art. Donna lives in Louth and enjoys being part of the local art community.
Our Youth Theatre is growing a strong culture of reflection and improvement. We develop drama skills through devising, performing, studying scripts, and exploring live theatre.
We stage two shows a year: a December showcase and a full July production.
Sessions run Saturdays, 9am–1pm (term-time), with input from qualified teachers and guest experts in performance, voice, and movement. Open to ages 8–18.
