The kids (who wouldn't be able to afford to go without the Community ticket scheme) loved it and I think the parent / carers had a blast too. It's a date in the calendar we always look forward to.

Do you work or volunteer for a charity or community group?

Does that charity or group support individuals living in Oxfordshire?

Do those individuals face social or economic barriers that prevent them from coming to the theatre?

If the answer to all three is 'yes', then read on...

Every year, Oxford Playhouse pledges to give away up to 2,000 free tickets to local community groups and charities to give people who may find a trip to the theatre more challenging than others the opportunity to come and see our shows.

To facilitate this, we have set up the Oxford Playhouse Community Tickets Membership Scheme. Any charity or community group serving individuals in Oxfordshire who would otherwise struggle to come to our theatre is welcome to join. Members will be able to claim a limited number of free or heavily discounted tickets to selected performances at the Playhouse when they become available. It's free to join and membership lasts for three years before members must rejoin, to ensure that we have the most up to date information about the groups.

This scheme is for community groups only, any schools who would like to find out more about the scheme and enquiring about free ticket opportunities, please contact our Take Part Team at learning@oxfordplayhouse.com.

The guests who attended had a really enjoyable time and were up dancing and singing throughout the show - I've heard nothing but positive messages and the generosity of the Playhouse has been warmly acknowledged.

Everyone thoroughly enjoyed it, and when I asked one of our non-verbal guests if she had enjoyed it, her smile lit up the whole foyer.
