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.

injury detail
There is brief live-action footage of real warfare, including sight of people with bloody injuries and of a dead body lying in a large pool of blood.
sexual violence and sexual threat
A flashback scene shows male police officers climbing into the back of a van where a young woman is restrained; it is implied that the men then subject her to sexual violence, but this occurs entirely off screen.
A man recounts his harrowing experiences of attempting to reach Northern Europe as a child refugee, including a dangerous sea crossing, police violence, and threats of violence from human traffickers. There is infrequent use of strong language (‘f**k’); milder terms include ‘piss’, ‘bastard’ and ‘damn’. There are infrequent moderate references to homophobia, but discrimination is not condoned. There are also brief references to a man’s boyfriend having threatened to report the man’s illegal immigration status to police.
