Previous shows in 2006 !

The tickets for the show in Manchester had been sold out one month before the show due date in 2006. The tickets for the evening show in East Grinstead had been sold out about two weeks in advance as well, therefore we have to arrange another afternoon show to meet people's request on the same day. We highly recommend people to book the tickets for the shows in 2007 in advance to avoid the disappointment as the tickets went very quick last year.

General Information

We will allocate a seat number to each booking made online for the shows and we implement the first come first serve policy except the reserved seats for special guests. Tickets will be sent out straight away once you placed your order. Disable access and seats are available to book in advance. As the theatre is very close to the shopping centre and it is just next to the main bus station so it makes the travel getting much easier. There are also many parking spaces around the venue as well.
