To make your ticket money work to our best advantage, we split the cover price into two parts: one part is a donation, and the second part is the base ticket price which is liable for VAT. You are able to use a CAF/Charity cheque for the donation amount only. If you wish to know the breakdown of your tickets, please contact us on 01962 791020.

There is no limit on the number of full-price tickets you are able to buy.

We’ve worked hard to bring ticket prices down wherever we can while still delivering gold-standard quality on stage. In fact, 80% of tickets are under £200, and more than 6,000 tickets are under £100.

Our Under 36 Tickets start as low as £5.
