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.

BBFC Ratings Info (May Contain Spoilers)
violence
In one scene, a woman watches a violent scene from a film on TV. The scene shows people being stabbed, accompanied by blood spurts and blood in the aftermath of violence.
There is an assisted death theme throughout, following an elderly stroke victim’s expressed wish to end his life is carried out. There are associated verbal references to suicide, and also brief undetailed sight of a corpse. There are also scenes of emotional upset, including a sequence in which a woman discovers her father has soiled his hospital bed. There is also infrequent strong language (‘f**k’), as well as milder terms (for example, ‘asshole’, ‘shit’, ‘bullshit’, ‘crap’, screw’, damn’), and a brief verbal reference to homophobic behaviour which is not condoned by the work as a whole.

Information about screenings with subtitles
Subtitled screenings offer captions which transcribe dialogue only. Subtitled screenings attempt to give D/deaf and hard-of-hearing viewers an understanding of the spoken dialogue within the film, but do not include description about other aspects of the soundtrack, including music and sound effects.
