  • Show Information

The Beat of our Hearts by Natalie McGrath premiered at Exeter Northcott Theatre on 3 February 2022.

A tender and poignant exploration of loneliness and belonging, The Beat of Our Hearts is a unique theatrical celebration of unheard voices and previously untold stories of LGBTQIA+ people, from South West-based playwright Natalie McGrath.

What audiences had to say:

“Wonderfully emotional, inspiring and empowering play getting to the heart of LGBTQ+ lives.”

“Fantastic to see local new writing about LGBTQ experience produced on a big stage in the South West!”

“Lyrical story-telling about LGBTQIA+ experience. Stories are there through history but hidden. Still erased. Still attacked. Much needed”

Developed in partnership with the University of Exeter Wellcome Centre and the Intercom Trust, and produced by Exeter Northcott Theatre, with support from the UK Research and Innovation’s Arts and Humanities Research Council and Arts Council England.


All tickets are valid until 25 March, 10am. You’ll need to book a free ticket and be logged into your account to gain access to the viewing page.

Exeter Northcott Theatre and Le Navet Bete's Dick Whittington artwork. Background: a foggy panorama photo of the city of London, with iconic buildings such as Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament, and St Paul's Cathedral. The cityscape is washed over with a burgundy haze. Foreground: A black and white cat (black body, white neck collar, white paws) looks towards the cityscape and we see them in near silhouette. They are stood on a yellow-brick path, with green grassy hills either side of them. On the hills, grey rats with large red eyes. On the left hand side of the cat, a rat holds a stereotypical hobo sack on a stick. At the top of the artwork, gold text reads: 'Exeter Northcott Theatre and Le Navet Bete present Dick Whittington.' Another group of rats with large red eyes are playing around the letters in 'Dick Whittington'. A cat paw icon replaces the dot on top of the letter 'I' in 'Dick', and a block of cheese replaces the dot on top of the second letter 'I' in 'Whittington.
