Hyde Festival Theatre are committed to sharing their love of performances and want to ensure that local families can still watch a good show.

Celebrating 70 years in operation, the theatre is looking forward to putting on its own pantomime this year. With many inspirational actors and actresses at Hyde Festival Theatre, you can guarantee to enjoy your experience.

Financial hardships have struck many families across the area as of late, and the theatre want to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to enjoy a British tradition.

So, Hyde Festival Theatre is now launching its ‘theatre access ticket scheme’, allowing you to sponsor and donate tickets to local, eligible families.

For just £10 a ticket, you can gift someone the excitement of performance, bringing smiles to those who need it most. Tickets will be emailed directly to the receiving applicant.

Tickets purchased will be for the family pantomime, Cinderella, to enjoy over the Christmas holiday season.

In the past, Hyde Festival Theatre have welcomed over 2000 people through schemes such as the £1 Alexandra cinema experience through the generosity of the local community and grant funding.

This year’s Cinderella production will consist of a full cast of characters with high energy song and dance, as well as hilarious comedy moments.

Those that donate and support the scheme can chose to have their name listed in the programme if they wish.
