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 performance at 2.30pm will be BSL interpreted. Both performances will be relaxed.

Fidget Theatre present a welcoming, music-filled new play for 4-8 year-old pirates and their families.
PIRATE BONNIE
Welcome aboard, join the crew,
Let’s set sail for the horizon blue.
We’ll hear pirate songs and pirate tales,
As the ocean breeze fills our sails!
Pirate Bonnie is looking for treasure – but no ordinary treasure, for she is no ordinary Pirate. The treasures she seeks are stories, the long-lost stories of swashbuckling Pirates.
The audience are greeted by Bonnie and invited on board her ship to join the crew, set sail and discover treasures. Each treasure recovered is a forgotten legend of a real female pirate. In typical Fidget Theatre style, the show is warm and witty with original songs and friendly interaction for children and their grown-ups who all become Bonnie’s ship-shape crew.
So, join the crew on board the Good Ship Adventure! Feel the rush of wind in the sails as Bonnie shares her treasure and sings the songs of pirates of old.
