If you went to your local arts venue to see a screening of Phoebe Waller-Bridge in Fleabag, Bill Nighy in Skylight or the Royal Opera House’s Das Rheingold, what did you actually see? A live show or a film? Labelling the experience as one thing or the other might seem like splitting hairs – unless you’re responsible for the venue’s finances. A recent tribunal had to rule on whether such showings were live cultural events that should be exempt from VAT. Its decision could be significant for the many arts organisations that have been watching with interest. VAT expert Hilary Bevan offered her insights for our report on an issue that, like a West End hit, could run and run. https://lnkd.in/dW8kaQQu

In an era where entertainment is everywhere, what truly draws a crowd? Off-Broadway's booming success suggests something fairly straightforward: fresh, inventive ideas executed flawlessly. Surely this is relevant to all efforts to captivate audiences. Clever, appealing and fresh ideas are vital. But brilliance remains a bedrock. #Audiences #TicketSales #PerformingArts #Theatre https://lnkd.in/ehJSTwdQ

Winning Back Customers: “Across the country, theater owners and studio executives are trying to crack the question of what draws moviegoers back to the multiplex. One answer that’s emerged: Stuff they don’t associate with the multiplex. Old movies, filmed concerts and religious dramas are among the programming serving as a critical lifeline to theaters struggling after years of release-schedule disruptions brought on first by Covid-19 and this year by dual labor strikes that shut down production. Eclectic offerings not only fill an auditorium on slow nights—they also present an area of growth in an industry still struggling to match prepandemic revenue levels” #cinema #leisurepropertyESS https://lnkd.in/edkmg2fY Fathom Events

What Hans Weichhart, AEA, AGVA said: To me, theatre isn't just a building. Theatre isn't just a play or a musical. Theatre is storytelling and whether you tell that story through words, dance, music, or art, it doesn't matter. The impact that theatre has to provoke thought, invoke emotions, and inspire change is what makes me so proud to celebrate #TIOS and to thank all of the dedicated #theatreeducators out there! Storytelling--also essential in writing for grants, annual reports, promotional information, etc. etc. etc. Wonder just how many people in grants, marketing, PR, etc. also have #theatreeducators to thank? Now's the time!
March is #TheatreInOurSchools month! Join us and thousands of students and theatre educators to raise awareness of the benefits of theatre education and celebrate the impact that theatre has on students' and educators' lives. Remember to tag us in your posts and use the hashtag #TheatreInOurSchools so we can share! To apply for the Outstanding Impact Award, use the score sheet and document your troupe's efforts, then submit your application! Top-scoring troupes will receive a prize package from the official sponsor of Theatre in Our Schools, Disney Theatrical Productions, in partnership with Music Theatre International and EdTA.

MA and NCTJ in Journalism, BA Creative Writing and Film Studies. Freelance writer and film/theatre critic open to work.
🏟 Live theatre: is it accessible or like trying to obtain a Golden Ticket? 🏟 🎥 In a world of screens and streaming services, live theatre offers an unparalleled and irreplaceable experience. It connects us with real people, real emotions, and the shared energy of a live performance that can’t be replicated anywhere else. 🎟 Currently playing on The Liverpool Empire is Roald Dahl’s ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.’ In a way, the quest for a golden ticket to his magical factory, mirrors the struggle for a theatre ticket today. Just as Charlie yearned for the elusive golden ticket to Willy Wonka's world of wonder, many aspire to access the enchanting world of live theatre. 🕺 Historically in the 1800s and early 1900s, theatre was often seen as an entertainment option for the elite. However, the late 1900s saw theatre more accessible to everyday folk with cheaper tickets and more casual dress on display. Unfortunately, in the past few years, I have noticed an increase in ticket prices for the top musicals and shows once again. There are sometimes cheaper tickets available but too often these are situated with a limited view, something I personally does decrease the theatrical experience. 🎩 I believe the magic of live theatre should be experienced by all who desire, regardless of their background. It's not about elitism; it's about the shared joy, inspiration, and connection it brings to our lives. ❓ So, here are my questions: Do you feel current theatre prices are reasonable? Is it even possible to reduce ticket prices or is it just not feasible to cover the cost of ‘putting on a show?’ How do you think theatres and ticket companies can work to make the ticket prices of ‘good seats’ available to all? ❤️ And a cheeky P.S: What are your favourite shows and experiences in the theatre to date? #livetheatre #cahrlieandthechocolatetheatre #goldenticket
