*** Tickets will be allocated from Wednesday, 25th March 2026, so there is no need to contact the Office before that date. After that date we will continue to allocate tickets until the Theatre is full
*** If your WI is unable to attend, please advise the Office – this will help us in the distribution of additional places
*** PLEASE NOTE: once tickets have been issued no refunds will be given ***
*** Please read the instructions for applying for tickets very carefully. If you have any queries, do
