For many families particularly during the cost of living crisis, a trip to the theatre at Christmas is not something that they can afford. Access to the arts for all is fundamental to our organisations values and vision and throughout the year we provide free or heavily subsidised activity for children and young people. At Christmas time, this is most important and we want to ensure that no child is prohibited from attending a magical Christmas performance due to financial constraints.

We will raise funds from the public and local supporters to offset the cost of a large number of tickets for our pantomime, Jack and the Beanstalk. We will then work with a range of local organisations and agencies including; Family Hubs, Youth Clubs, Food Banks, Toy Banks, Domestic Abuse support services, substance abuse support services and others to get these free tickets to families who are genuinely in need of support.
