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.
The Attic – Known as the space inside the roof of a building, yet less recognised as the space that holds precious memories and treasures of the past, collected through life’s journey. It is true that memories are stored in our head and hearts forever, yet sometimes they often fade or bury deep in our mind. Acting as one of life’s saviours can be an item, a song or even a smell that acts like a time machine, transporting us back to a time and place that’s been hidden.
Whether it be old love letters, photo’s of passing loved ones, childhood toys or the star from the Christmas tree; out of sight is out of mind, but somewhere deep inside, we know they still exist.
Since it’s arrival, Star Academy has recreated well known storylines producing performances that have grown in stature, talent, and expectation. 2019 offered a difference whereas the spectacle was achieved by focusing on life itself, titled The Waiting Game. Little did we know, the following year, life became a waiting game. Now free from restriction, Star Academy returns, bigger and better than before, tackling the turmoil of life’s emotions. Dealing with themes of hurt, fairness, happiness and forgiveness; The Attic is a delightful story that takes on a journey to the past.
