The North Devon Gang Show is a spectacular variety performance, held annually at The Landmark Theatre in Ilfracombe, that brings together the talents of young people from the Scouting and Guiding movements. This lively show offers a platform for Scouts, Guides, and their leaders to develop theatre skills and shine on a professional stage.

Featuring over 65 performers—both children and adults—this show offers a mix of musical numbers, comedy sketches, and popular music, all performed by passionate individuals committed to their craft.

Rehearsals for the Gang Show begin as early as September and run through until February, with performers dedicating six months to perfecting their acts. All of this takes place alongside their regular Scouting or Guiding activities, school, and work commitments, showcasing their dedication and love for the performance.

While the performers take centre stage, the hard work of a dedicated team of volunteers ensures the magic happens behind the scenes. From set building to costume design, lighting, and sound, these volunteers help bring the show to life.

If you’re looking for an entertaining, family-friendly event that celebrates the spirit of community, teamwork, and young talent, the North Devon Gang Show is not to be missed!
