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.
A film screening of ‘In the Veins’ and discussion as part of Teesside University’s Being Human Festival programme
Tickets for ‘Marks on the Land’ are free and are available from Eventbrite here.
This special ‘Marks on the Land’ event will dig deep into the coal mining heritage of the North, with a screening of a new short film In the Veins, followed by a panel discussion with the makers.
A story of hardship and hope, division and defiance, perseverance and pride, In the Veins, resonates through time to shine a light onto the face of the mining heritage of Yorkshire and the North East of England.
Four decades on from one of the longest industrial disputes of the 20th century, it’s an important time to reflect on the rich history of mining in the UK, how it has affected the people, places, and identity of those that were involved.
The screening will be followed by a Q&A with historian Ben Lamb, Yorkshire and North East Film Archive Manager, Graham Relton and members of the community curatorial group who were instrumental in ensuring the authenticity and accuracy of the film. Audience members will be invited to take part in a post-screening discussion about the film’s themes and share their own histories of life In the Veins.
Commissioned by Teesside University and produced by the Yorkshire and North East Film Archive, this event is a catalyst for conversation, and an opportunity to learn from the past to help shape the future.
This event is part of Being Human Festival, the UK’s national festival of the humanities, taking place 7–16 November 2024. Led by the School of Advanced Study, University of London, with generous support from Research England, in partnership with the Arts and Humanities Research Council and the British Academy.
