Theatre Trips

Welcome to the Theatre group.
I mostly book tickets for the Theatre Royal and the Royal Concert Hall in Nottingham. Luckily for us the tram stops right outside the theatre, so no worries about parking.
I usually aim for one show a month, but sometimes this doubles up as the plays and shows are too good to miss. I select shows which I want to see and invite you to come along. Once you have decided you want to come to I collect the ticket money so I can purchase the tickets.
Sometimes we meet for lunch before the show, as I always try and book matinees, this works out quite well. I arrange to meet you outside the theatre at 12 for lunch, or inside the theatre half and hour before the performance if you are not doing lunch. I give you your tickets and we spent the next two to three hours being entertained.
I do try and support amateur groups if possible, such as the Bonnington Theatre in Arnold and the Good Companions group in Derby.
