Work has commenced on our Theatre Improvement Programme. Under the direction of the Port Sunlight Village Trust,the land on the Greendale Road side of the Theatre has been re-designed to provide improved access without steps for disabled members of our audience. On completion, we will also invite ticket holders for performances to use the Greendale Road entrance doors.Those wishing to pay for tickets at the Box Office and latecomers should continue to use the existing foyer entrance at the rear of the auditorium. We intend to commence Phase 2 of our improvements, which is the construction of a suite of performers’ dressing rooms, within the next few months. By our own efforts, and those of our audiences, we have already raised half of the funding to allow this work to begin. We have a further £30,000 to find. After this development has been completed, we can turn our attention to the major task of improving audience facilities. We appeal to all users of the theatre to assist us at this time in the task of keeping open and improving this valuable community asset. Any financial contributions you are able to make should be addressed to Alan Davies, Fund Raising Co-ordinator, or handed to any of the Stewards on duty in the Theatre. For some performances we run audience raffles and we would encourage you to participate and give generously to our Theatre Improvement Fund.
