Two of Cornwall’s longstanding brands, Miracle Theatre and Jolly’s Drinks, have joined forces for summer 2026.

Jolly’s Drinks, who have been creating soft drinks in Cornwall for 130 years, are confirmed as a key sponsor for the theatre company’s summer touring show.

The show, Peer Gynt, will be visiting rural outdoor venues across the southwest from June until the end of August. Visiting 35 locations from The Scillies up to Dorset, the show offers audiences the opportunity to enjoy live theatre in beautiful outdoor settings including gardens, village greens and castles.

As a registered charity, Miracle Theatre rely on a combination of ticket income, core funding, fundraising and generating secondary income to continue their work which includes offering opportunities for learning and involvement in creative skills through the arts.

“We are incredibly grateful to Jolly’s Drinks for their support,” Bill Scott, founder of Miracle Theatre.

“Their commitment to community and culture will make a real difference to us as a performing arts charity. Thanks to their sponsorship, we will be able to raise additional funds with the introduction of pop-up bars at a number of venues.”

Jolly’s Drinks involvement reflects their strong commitment to supporting creativity and community in the southwest. By investing in the arts, they are helping to sustain vital cultural experiences and ensure that rural communities remain connected through shared storytelling and performance.

“As a Cornish brand, this partnership means a lot to us. Miracle Theatre has been bringing performances to communities across the region for decades, and we’re proud to support their 2026 tour. It’s a great opportunity to celebrate Cornwall’s creativity while helping ensure these experiences continue to reach audiences far and wide.” Cheryl Ingram, Managing Director, Jolly’s Drinks

“Jolly’s are a perfect match for us at Miracle Theatre, their drive towards improvements in sustainability and their dedication to the southwest matches our ambitions entirely and we are really looking forward to working together this summer.” Bill

Peer Gynt opens on Monday 8th June at The Minack and ends on Saturday 29th August at Enys Gardens, Penryn. Full tour details available at www.miracletheatre.co.uk
