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.
Friday 1 March, Middlesbrough Town Hall, 5.30pm – 7.30pm
Friday 8 March, ARC Stockton, 5.30pm – 7.30pm
Calling all goths/ex goths! Did you grow up in the north east? Did you/do you consider yourself to be a goth? Emo? Mosher? Alt kid?
If that’s you, we’re having a party! A sesh! A reunion of sorts! Think goth-ified school disco.
The Goth Social will be a chance to meet up with fellow folk, tell your stories, eat some scran, listen to tunes, play some games, and win some prizes donated by some well lush local businesses!
Dress code: Come as you were – a nostalgic look back on your alt/goth self!
ARC Associate Artist Audrey Cook is curating an exhibition that celebrates these alt youth subcultures, featuring stories, portraits, music playlists, all looking to highlight and represent the community. So as an optional extra to the social, local writers will be around to hear your stories, and a photographer will be around to get some portraits that may go up in the Bus Stop Goths exhibition.
Free to attend – booking required (for Middlesbrough Town Hall book here / for ARC Stockton please confirm attendance via email to [email protected])
