What is A Night Less Ordinary?
A Night Less Ordinary is an Arts Council England scheme in association with Metro, which will provide 618,000 free theatre tickets to anyone under 26 in more than 200 venues across England.
Who is entitled?
Any person aged 25 or below, ie under (and not including) 26, can obtain tickets.
How many tickets can I obtain?
This depends on the individual venue but most venues will allow you to obtain more than one ticket on behalf of your under-26 friends.
Can I return to the same venue for more free tickets?
Yes, in most venues you can return to as many different shows as you like, however, check the terms and conditions of the participating venue.
What do I have to do to get the tickets?
Search for a venue near to you (by post code or town/city), click on the link ‘Get free tickets’, which will open up a new window and take you straight to the venue’s website. Each venue will have its own terms and conditions, which you can read through, then either use their online booking system (if applicable) or call their box office to order your free tickets, subject to availability.
How long will the scheme be running for?
Two years. A Night Less Ordinary will run from February 2009 until March 2011.
What theatres are participating?
There are over 200 theatres and arts venues participating all over the country. Check our website for what centres are taking part in your local area. Some of these include: Battersea Arts Centre, Almeida, Young Vic, Soho Theatre, Donmar Warehouse, Tricycle Theatre, The Gate, The Bush, Birmingham Rep, Nottingham Playhouse, Barbican, Liverpool Everyman Playhouse, The Marlowe Canterbury, Watford Palace Theatre and many more.
Why is the scheme only open to under-26-year-olds?
The Arts Council is continuously looking at new ways of reaching people of all ages who do not currently engage with the arts, as part of our mission to get great art to everyone.
Children and young people are a priority for us as research shows that people who are given the opportunity to experience arts when young are much more likely to develop a habit of attending which then stays with them for life. This is why under-26-year-olds were selected as the target audience for A Night Less Ordinary.
We will be reviewing the impact of A Night Less Ordinary and assessing the effectiveness of this approach in reaching young people. At that stage we will also be able to judge the potential of this approach to reach other groups that do not currently attend or participate in the arts.
How come the offer seems different at different theatres?
Some theatres have adopted the scheme in slightly different ways - to fit in with their way of working and other schemes they may be running for young people, and to appeal to their audiences. When you contact each participating venue, the box office staff will be able to explain any differences to you.0 -

Alfie

Hi everyone,
I'm being chucked out of the house for the day with my 3 daughters whilst we have heating/work done to the house and I have decided to take the kids to London for the day shopping as its only about 30 minutes on the train.
As a treat at half term I have decided to take them to see a show. They are 20, 15 and 13 and my 20 year old daughter has seen Dirty Dancing and Grease and myself and my 15 year old daughter have seen Grease too. My eldest is keen on Wicked or The Lion King and I have spent hours searching the web for reasonable, good enough view/seats to buy. I have also managed to add my 15 year old daughters best friend to the group and the best I can find is Wicked £50 a ticket for 'second price seats' or The Lion King' for 'top price stalls/royal circle seats' at £55.00 a ticket with Last Minute.com. I'm really confused by the Last minute terms for their seats and dont want to pay £250 (for Wicked) or £275 for The Lion King to end up with not a particularly good view/seat. I think I've left it a bit late as we want to go on Thursday 28th October which is half term and less than 4 weeks away but as it is these tickets will cost me more money than I've got and I will have to pay train fares and Mcdonalds/meal too!!
Please can someone help me?0
