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.

BBFC rating information (may contain spoilers)
Violence
Scenes of violence include a villainous guard using a cattle prod to electrocute heroes, and a cat eating a bird. A cat also uses food-stuffs to fight his rivals, firing meatballs and sprinkling chilli flakes in their eyes.
Threat and horror
Scenes include a villainous cat threatening heroes with her claws, an extended sequence of a cat avoiding cheese-related dangers like a giant grater, and an action set on a fast-moving train. However, the action is often fantastical, stylised, broken-up with moments of comedy and ends reassuringly. In one sequence, characters jump onto a moving train.
Language
There is use of very mild bad language (‘butt’).
Rude humour
There are comic kisses and references to dating. A character lands in a pile of manure, and there are references to a pound being ‘stinky’.
Theme
A theme of the film is the estranged relationship between a father and son. There is a reassuring ending, but brief references are made to feeling rejected and abandoned.
Flashing/flickering lights
This work contains flashing images which may affect viewers who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy.
