How can I support the theatre?

Following the continued uncertainty as to when theatres will be able to re-open due to Covid-19, it has become necessary for us to postpone our entire 2020 season until 2021. A note from Artistic Director, Timothy Sheader:
We are a charity which receives no public subsidy and so our ambitious audience, always up for the thrilling, yet unpredictable, nature of open air theatre, is of paramount importance to us. Ticket sales in the summer months provide the vast majority of our income. Whilst we had built a successful and resilient theatre through creative programming and shrewd financial management, the loss of an entire season coupled with having to wait another whole year until we are able to welcome audiences again, means we need your support now more than ever. With your backing, we will be able to continue producing award-winning shows in the heart of Regent’s Park, provide £10 preview tickets to 18-25 year olds, subsidise tickets to some 6,000 school children and champion access in all that we do. If you are able to do so, we would be very grateful if you would consider supporting us in one of three ways:
- Buy tickets now for our 2021 season;
- Make a one-off donation, helping us re-build our resilience fund as quickly as possible. If you’re eligible, we will be able to increase your donation by 25p for every £1 given at no extra cost to you, thanks to the Gift Aid scheme*.
- Join us as an Annual Member, from just £50, and benefit from discounts and special events.
Your support really is much appreciated by all of us at Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre, and we look forward to seeing everyone again in a sunnier 2021.
* If you have already signed a Gift Aid declaration with us, you will not be prompted again when making new donations.
