Everybody belongs in Theatre. We believe theatre is more than the magic of live performance—it’s about creating a space for connection, creativity, and community, free from barriers, especially when it comes to cost. That’s why we’re proud to offer Pay What You Decide (PWYD) tickets. 🌟 How it works: PWYD tickets let you choose the price that works for you, starting at just £5. Whether you’re a lifelong theatre lover or taking your first step into the world of live performance, PWYD makes it easier to explore something new, without financial worry. 🌟 For Our Local Community: Prescot residents (L34 and L35 postcodes) have exclusive access to additional PWYD tickets—a special way of saying thank you to the community we call home. 🌟 Pay It Forward: If you can, consider paying a little extra for your ticket. It’s a simple way to pay it forward, helping to cover the cost for someone who might not otherwise be able to attend. Your generosity makes theatre accessible for all. Shakespeare North Playhouse is more than a stage. It’s a home for stories, a place to belong, and a celebration of shared experiences. Whether it’s your first visit or your hundredth, we hope you leave with memories to cherish and a connection to something bigger. #AccessibleTheatre #PayWhatYouDecide #PayItForward #CommunityImpact #LivePerformance
