Family Tickets
Thousands of families are lucky enough to enjoy the magic of our pantomime each year, but there are some who have suffered trauma, bereavement or illness meaning they can't attend. Each Christmas, local businesses can sponsor a family of four to attend our pantomime, which will be distributed through our charity partners. This year, there will be even more local families who have experience difficulties during the pandemic, and you can help them forget their troubles at a performance of Jack & The Beanstalk.
Family ticket sponsors are recognised in all press and social media coverage of the scheme, and are invited to the VIP performance of the pantomime.
