The Silver Box (Hypothetical Production)

——————————

During a typical Season at Altrincham Garrick Playhouse we produce, on average, 12 productions in our Main House and 5 productions in our Lauriston Studio. Although we do have plans to reopen to live performances safely as soon as we are permitted to do so, the effects of not being able to generate our usual income is taking its toll on us.

As part of our survival campaign, we’re launching a hypothetical production week, where you can buy tickets by way of donation. For every ticket purchased, the ticket holder will be entered into a raffle to win a prize from the Altrincham Garrick Playhouse.

This performance will not actually be taking place; it is a fictional production. The buying of tickets is purely a way of supporting Altrincham Garrick Playhouse through this difficult time.

“The Silver Box” was the first production ever to be produced by Altrincham Garrick Society, in 1914. The very first rehearsal took place on 17th February 1914, with the production opening on 18th March 1914 at the Public Hall, Altrincham.

Tickets: £5

All tickets purchased will be entered into a raffle with the following prizes:

– 4 complimentary tickets to the Garrick’s 2021/2022 Pantomime “Peter Pan”

– 2 complimentary tickets for a Garrick production of your choice in the Autumn/Winter Season 2021 (two of these prizes available)

– 1 Complimentary Garrick Membership lasting 12 months. (This allows you to purchase 2 member priced tickets for any of the Garrick’s in house Playhouse and Lauriston Productions and also Picturehouse Screenings

If you want to get involved as a volunteer, we are always looking for new talent, any age, to work in all areas of the theatre.

The Garrick is a non-professional organisation that is extremely well regarded for the high quality of our productions; however we rely on the hard work and generosity of our volunteers. Many of our patrons believe that our ticket prices are too low considering our large overheads, the quality of our productions and the overall high standard of the theatrical experience that we provide. We also have a wonderful youth Academy, GAPA which offers theatre stagecraft tuition to over 100 students per term. (We also offer Bursaries so please feel free to enquire).

If you agree and like what you see, then we ask that you support your local Playhouse by kindly donating whatever you can when you book tickets online or at our Box Office. Remember you can also gift aid your kind donation.

Your support will enable the Garrick to grow and thrive. WE ARE MOST GRATEFUL, THANK YOU!
