TICKET PRICES FOR SCHOOL PARTIES
To help schools to bring young people to as much theatre as possible, we have great discounts for school parties and a dedicated group bookings phone line to provide specialised assistance for groups and schools. We also provide one free ticket for a teacher for every ten pupil tickets booked, with any additional staff paying the same price as the pupils.
