A £23M upgrade of one of Somerset’s main theatres has been given the final go-ahead – though it may not be enough to secure a concert by Adele. South Somerset District Council announced in late-December 2020 its intention to upgrade the Octagon Theatre in Yeovil, boosting its capacity and technical equipment so that it can support larger shows. The government announced in March that it would be providing £10M towards the project as part of the Budget, as well as allowing the council to claim back all the VAT associated with the project.
