Established in the early 2000s, Unleashed Theatre Company was set up to enable Christians from various churches to come together to present professional-standard productions with specific Christian themes.
As the company’s reputation and membership grew, it was commissioned by an abbot from Buckfast Abbey to produce and perform a number of big shows at the abbey over several summers. Productions have included large-cast plays and musicals, performed both indoors and in the open air.
Craig Oakes Transport Planning produced a Transport Statement and provided Technical advice in support of a planning application for the change of use of the former cinema, in Torquay’s Abbey Road, to form a Theatre, Community Art Centre and Office Space.
Planning permission was granted in December 2022.
