The centrepiece of the festival is one of Samuel Beckett's most celebrated works, Endgame . A depiction of the heart of an uncompromising relationship, laid out in ruthlessly beautiful poetry and image. Directed by Anthony Richards, Endgame features some of the best seasoned local performers.
There are also performances of Breath and A Piece of Monologue and extracts from All That Fall and Embers.
Surrounding Beckett’s own works, we have new performances from visiting groups of professionals and students...
The Exe Estuary in winter is one of the best places in the UK to get great views of avocets. With their black-and-white plumage, and slender, curved bills, you can’t miss them especially a flock of up to 500 when they’re sweeping the mud to search for tasty morsels.
Every winter, over 40,000 birds, including hundreds of black-tailed godwits, Brent geese and red-breasted mergansers, flock to the Exe Estuary from as far a field as Siberia and Greenland.
With expert commentary on each cruise, you'll learn something new and exciting about the Exe Estuary and its residents....

How many sports can claim to be to be for all the family? Skiing is one of the best of them! Not only because we are all together (children, parents, grandparents) but also because when we play, we discover so much that we create some of the best memories ever.
