Exeter's Northcott Theatre has welcomed a cash windfall which'll boost its funds by £150,000 over three years.
The theatre successfully applied for the grant from the Michael Bishop Foundation which supports the arts and which was impressed with its vision for the future.
The Northcott has begun producing its own work again rather than just hosting touring companies.
The theatre are also working with academics from Exeter University on making other shows.
