Steve Lodge 🔶 @comedysteve.bsky.social · 27/09/2026So lovely to host Pam Ayres at our little theatre in Tiverton. Tonight she's in Taunton at a theatre that is closing due to financial pressure. One of our audience bought her mum, the first time she'd left the house in months. Live events are therapy, good for people. Don't let theatres close. 020
