Performance takes place in ARC’s Theatre
Dynamic Pricing
ARC’s policy is to set ticket prices based on demand, like budget airlines, which means we set a price when the event goes on sale and then sometimes put the price up or down depending on how the show is selling. Usually, the price will increase as we get closer to the event, so it is advantageous to book in advance, although sometimes we will put special offers on and reduce the price. Our website will always show the current ticket price.
ARC’s theatre and dance performances are priced on a Pay What You Decide basis, which means you don’t have to pay until after you have seen a show!
We want to encourage more people to come and see shows at ARC, more often. Pay What You Decide not only allows you to pay what you can afford, rather than a fixed ticket price, but also removes the financial risk of buying a ticket for a show in advance without knowing whether you are going to enjoy it or not.
Tickets are available to book in advance as usual, but there is no obligation for you to pay until after you have seen the show. You can then decide on a price which you think is suitable based on your experience, which means if you haven’t enjoyed it at all, you don’t have to pay anything.
All money collected will help ARC pay the artists who have performed, and we therefore hope you will give generously.
Please ensure you have arrived and collected your tickets 15 minutes before the show starts in order to secure your seats. At the end of the show, you can decide what to pay, either by cash on the door or by card at the Box Office.
Would you like some free art? Maybe you’d prefer some free bricks?
What if they were the same thing?
Between Friday 25 and Tuesday 29 October, Gillian and Adam will be making sculptures out of 4,000 bricks as part of their project, FOUNDATION.
They will be monuments to buildings, to public art in public spaces, to bricklayers and architects, to demolition and re-building.
And we want to give the bricks away.
We want to donate them to be used as a doorstop, a garden wall, a garage… whatever you choose.
We want them to become part of the very fabric of the town.
And we want to know where they end up.
If you would like some of these bricks for your own project, whether that’s a garden wall or something less conventional, you can get then during the performance on a first come, first served basis, or to reserve some please complete this form.
Alternatively you can reserve a souvenir brick on our website.
