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.

We are all trying to work out our story. Who we are? How are we shaped? Who made us? Sometimes you have to find the courage to be just you – the brilliant you.
Following the acclaimed Need a Little Help (‘beautifully immersive production’ The Family Stage) and Butterflies (‘a truly transformative experience’ Children’s Theatre Reviews) Tangled Feet present their new show about how we all need somewhere to belong and someone to belong to.
Cleo is on a journey like no other. She’s trying to discover her past whilst attempting to stay on her feet in the present. Where has she been and when will she get back? Piles of clothes become sea creatures, dresses become parachutes and shadows dance as Cleo and two new friends find a place called home.
Inspired by working with young people who don’t live with their birth parents, Belongings is the story of finding your feet, finding your playmates and imagining a new future.
Told with Tangled Feet’s unique blend of physicality, innovative design and original music, this is a show for anyone aged 6 and up who is looking to find where they fit in.
Content Advice
Please be aware that scenes within the play explore:
* children’s feelings about not living with their birth families
* children’s worries about their parents being unwell, unreliable or absent.
We know some children may benefit from knowing in advance about these points or will have questions afterwards. If you need some ideas about how to answer their questions, the following may be helpful: https://www.twinkl.co.uk/teaching-wiki/foster-care
Reviews
‘beautifully evocative production is skilfully and sensitively directed by Nathan Curry, with the children’s stories expressed through vivid and varied means.’ (Everything Theatre)
‘The three actors perform as children with delightful authenticity, and the production brilliantly highlights the importance of play as a positive force: a means of self‑expression, for learning, companionship, challenge and teamwork.’ (Everything Theatre)
‘It’s brilliantly done, managing to be extremely relatable for children with no experience of the care system while giving them a rare insight into the reality of life in foster care.’ (The Family Stage)
‘It’s one we will certainly be talking about for quite some time, and we can’t wait to see what Tangled Feet come up with next.’ (The Family Stage)
