FAQs
& our answers
Can I book by phone?
Absolutely we can take bookings by phone. Remember to tell us who you are, where you would like the performance to take place, and when you are looking for a visit.
Will my show be canceled due to COVID?
We are following best practice guidelines and will remain in contact with you throughout this time as guidance changes.
We aim to visit in person in accordance with government guidelines and any required social distancing or protective equipment. In the event that a performance is canceled we will try to provide you with an alternative date or digital copy of the performance.
How long does it take until my booking is confirmed?
We aim to get back to your request and deal within a week. Once you have spoken to our office team by phone or email we will look at a range of options that would suit your school or community venue. Unfortunately we can't always guarantee your first choice but we will always try and work with you to find an alternative solution. Once the date is agreed we will send you a digital confirmation.
Do I need to prepare anything in advance of your visit?
We advise clearing the performance space our team will be using and set up any seating required for your audience, we'll arrive with everything else and a panto that won't disappoint.
