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.

After the huge success of their Our Stomping Grounds Festival in June, and their sell out show at Stockton International Riverside Festival, Full Circle Theatre Company is back with a brand new show, Storiescapes, promising to bring their trademark style of powerful, poignant and witty highly visual theatre back to ARC’s main stage.
Storiescapes looks at who gets to tell their stories, asking why is it actors, singers, sportspeople and celebrities who get their autobiographies on the bookshelves.
This striking new piece of work from the learning disabled ensemble of actors is set in an escape room where stories of some people have been locked away and hidden for hundreds of years. Each of the actors embodies a story and its fight to break free to be told.
Will the stories of learning disabled people ever be told properly? From their point of view? The stories have to solve the puzzles of the Escape Room to be told and if they do it you’ll hear about being an adventurer whose hot air balloon escapes with them, a poet whose book lights up whenever they write something new, a magical horse ride through the air, a DJ who is a big crook, an opera singer finally able to sing her heart out, festival goers, detectives, drummers, and party hosts with cocktail shakers.
What will happen to the world if all these stories break free? You’ll have to book tickets and come and see.
