Dynamic Pricing Info
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.

Eliza Carthy returns with Frenemies, a new album created with her long-standing band, The Restitution. Co-written and co-produced with Ben Seal, the record combines sharp humour, traditional folk and punk spirit as Carthy reflects on motherhood, betrayal, forgiveness and the state of the modern world.
Tackling everything from complicated relationships to solidarity with the LGBTQIA+ community, Frenemies captures the wit, warmth and fire that have defined her career. More than 30 years on from her debut, Carthy remains one of English folk’s most distinctive and uncompromising voices.
Watch the official video below for Mr Sits In The Dark, which is the first single from the new album Frenemies.
Describing herself simply as a ‘modern English musician’, Eliza Carthy is one of the most recognisable faces of the English folk revival, and over her 35-year illustrious career, remains one of the most original and engaging performers of her generation. Eliza Carthy has earned an MBE, two Mercury Prize nominations and a plethora of other accolades.
She has toured all over the world; danced with Hugh Masekele in Ghana; crossed the Prairies, the Alps, and the waters of Lake Titicaca, all for the sake of playing the fiddle and spreading the word of English traditional music Her touring band, The Restitution, is a dynamic force of contemporary folk musicians, featuring Dave Delarre (guitars), Ben Seal (bass), Phil Alexander (piano), and Willy Molleson (drums), and together, they create an exciting and captivating musical experience.
