Cost: Tickets are £2.50, £5 and £10. Pay What You Decide**

**What is Pay What You Decide?

Pay What You Decide puts the choice in your hands. It doesn’t matter what price ticket you buy, it won’t affect where your seat is or how good your view is. You get to decide how much you’d like to pay. We are doing this so that there is a price that suits everyone and doesn’t cause a barrier to attending the show. We are testing this way of pricing tickets and would love to hear what you think.

There is no judgement about how much you pay. If you can pay the highest price, please do. Your contribution helps make arts and culture accessible to all in Crawley. If you have any further questions, please email [email protected]

This event is in collaboration with Creative Crawley and will take place in Unit 79/80 in County Mall.
