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.

There is a code blue, Destiny escapes onto a prison roof.
It’s bonfire night, the country is exploding and so is Destiny.
The award-winning company behind Key Change (New York Times Critics’ Pick) and Sugar on BBC iPlayer bring you Rupture. Created with women from HMP Low Newton, and based on true-life experiences, Rupture is their story about being mothers in prison.
“I am always activated and inspired and enraged by an Open Clasp Play. You are everything Theatre should be.” Audience Member on Rupture
“Absolutely incredible. Powerful and insightful. I feel I know so much more about the experiences of mothers in prison. As always there is a spirit of fight, togetherness and love.” Audience Member on Rupture
The performance of Rupture will be followed by a post-show panel discussion. The discussion will last approximately 40 minutes and is included in the ticket price.
The panel will be chaired by the Writer of Rupture and Artistic Director of Open Clasp; Dr Catrina McHugh MBE, who will be joined by a panel of industry professionals and experts working with women in the Criminal Justice System discussing the themes within the play and how we can advocate for change.
