Morrow Stage · touring theatre and events producer · 28 September 2026

Check the booking agreement before adding Bellwether to the tour.
-----------------------------------------------------------------

 ### What changed

On 25 September 2026, Bellwether Arts announced that Larkspur Events would manage commercial bookings at its refurbished hall from January 2027. The announcement described a new standing configuration.

### Why it matters

The hall could suit Morrow’s next planned production. The announcement doesn’t confirm capacity for that configuration, available dates or the technical and commercial terms needed to judge the fit.

### What to do next

Request the venue specification and booking terms from Larkspur. Ask Production to compare them with your own technical requirements and tour plan before holding a date or revising the budget.

   Where the brief helps  Three decisions to keep in view. 
----------------------------------

  1### Plan around the venue landscape

A new venue or operator may create an option for your programme or change the local competition. See the announced facilities and plans in context, then assign the practical questions about suitability, dates and terms.

**Worth following**Venue openings, operator changes and published refurbishment plans.

   2### Understand who can offer what

A public licensing or distribution agreement can change who you need to speak to. Identify the relevant announcement, keep its stated scope clear and ask the right owner to confirm availability and terms for your proposed use.

**Worth following**Public rights agreements, content-distribution agreements and licensing partnerships.

   3### Choose partnerships that suit the programme

A festival or promoter partnership matters when it fits your audience and the work you want to present. Use the weekly brief to decide whether an approach is worth making, with a specific question for the conversation.

**Worth following**Festival collaborations, promoter agreements and announced sponsorship partnerships.

-----------------------------

Choose the organisations that matter, set your priorities and use the weekly brief to agree what deserves a closer look.

  Can we follow rights holders and venue partners?Yes. Choose the organisations relevant to your programme and explain the relationships. A public licensing agreement, venue change or partnership can then be assessed against your priorities. The brief can suggest what to ask next, while your team confirms the precise rights, permitted uses and commercial terms directly.

   Will it tell us which shows are selling?The brief considers external organisation developments, rather than ticket demand or private sales figures. Public event and partnership announcements can inform a weekly programming discussion. Your booking and production teams still need their own sales records, audience research and venue conversations before making a commercial commitment.
