The brief

South Somerset District Council (SSDC) are transforming The Octagon Theatre, Yeovil into a flagship venue for the arts and entertainment in Somerset.

The plans will realise The Octagon Theatre transformed into a centre of excellence. \r \r Guests will be able to enjoy hot and cold food from our central Café hub that will be open throughout the day and will be a destination and meeting place in its own right whilst also serving those attending performances, screenings, events and classes.

Bars on all three floors will serve refreshments balancing the 'high-intensity' of interval and pre-show service with a more relaxing offer and a place to unwind. \r \r An experienced catering consultant is required to work with the Authority and their design/project team to build on a previously feasibility study by developing the brief with SSDC and feeding the information into the development of the Stage 3 and Stage 4 architectural and services design.\r \r The catering offer will be an important part of the new offer and is expected to be strong enough to create a destination venue for food.\r
