The Bonington Theatre in Arnold, Nottinghamshire (which serves the nearby town of Carlton) has added a Taylor Swift tribute show to its spring lineup for May 9, 2026. The performance, titled “The Tour of the Eras,” is designed as a family-friendly afternoon event to bring a large-scale concert experience to the local community.

Performer Hannah Jenkins will lead the show alongside a four-piece live band and four professional dancers to recreate the singer’s famous Eras Tour. The production — presented by The Tour of the Eras and hosted at the Bonington Theatre — features hit songs from across every era of the star’s career, including tracks such as “Shake It Off” and “Love Story.”

Hosted at the 178-seat venue, the matinee starts at 3:30 pm to make it easier for school-aged children and families to attend without travelling into the city. (Note: the Bonington is also listing a second evening performance on the same date at 7:30 pm.) Gedling Borough Council, which owns and runs the theatre, aims to provide high-quality entertainment that is accessible and affordable for residents.

Tickets for the event can be booked through the theatre box office or the Bonington website; the venue charges a £1 non‑refundable transaction fee for online bookings. Local officials have described the theatre as a vital community space that offers residents entertainment and relief close to home.
