The Island Summer Theatre Festival 2026 invites audiences to celebrate the warmth, wonder, and magic of live performance under the summer sky. Featuring a vibrant blend of classic stories, original works, and family favourites, this year’s festival transforms the stage into a world of imagination and discovery. Each afternoon, families can delight in our joyful matinee productions filled with music, laughter, and heart; While evenings give way to the poetry and passion of Shakespeare beneath the stars. Together, these performances weave a tapestry of humour, mystery, and beauty, capturing the spirit of a season devoted to exploration. From light-hearted adventures to stirring tales that linger long after the final bow, ISTF 2026 promises unforgettable experiences shared with friends, family, and community.

Join us for a Season of Discovery that reminds us why summer, and theatre, are best experienced together.
