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.

Anyone who saw Mike McGrother’s ‘Of Rogues and Of Honest Men’ knows that his staged performances are packed with Teesside storytelling, emotion, humour and energy. That show introduced us to the historically based wonder-filled Pa McCoys – the middle house of Haverton Hill circa the beginning of the 20th century.
Tonight we head back to the pub as Pa McCoy and table top singer McGrother introduce more stories of Teesside’s community. Inspired by Mike’s regular Joe’s Speakeasy reminiscence events, take a seat, have a drink and prepare to meet 11 (extra)ordinary Teesside men and women as their life stories are told through songs, visual projection and a narrative featuring the ‘Voice of Big Brother’ Marcus Bentley.
With full live band, Infant Hercules Choir and more than a few surprises along the way, join us to ‘Raise a Glass’ and prepare to be engrossed in this extraordinary musical experience guaranteed to produce tears of laughter and emotion in equal measure.
