Dear Friends and Supporters,

Sadly, I am writing to inform you that following the recent Government announcement that Cambridgeshire is to move into Tier 4, we are unable to complete our run of Dame Trott’s Panto Palaver.

The critics have spoken and our spectacular panto themed adventure Dame Trott's Panto Palaver is proving to be a huge hit! Here's a round up of of our favourites so far, and remember to click on each publication to read the full review.

Dear Friends and Supporters,

I hope you and your loved ones are faring well and managing to make the best of our surreal COVID world.

Cambridge Arts Theatre has been awarded £985,000 as part of the Government’s £1.57 billion Culture Recovery Fund (CRF), to help face the ongoing challenges of the Coronavirus pandemic.

Since closing its doors in March, it is estimated the Arts Theatre has lost over 97% of its income, with 13 touring productions cancelled and thousands of audience members disappointed due to the current crisis.

Due to the current Coronavirus pandemic, Mischief Theatre’s Groan Ups (19 – 24 October 2020) has been rescheduled for Spring 2021. 

Performances will now take place from Monday 5 – Saturday 10 April 2021. 

All tickets remain valid for the equivalent performances and have been transferred automatically. All affected customers have been contacted by email.

Dear Friends and Supporters,

I hope you and your loved ones are in good health and good spirits in this lockdown period.

Due to the current Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic Cambridge Arts Theatre is temporarily closed. We will be updating customers further over the coming days.
 

Here at Cambridge Arts Theatre Trust we are continuing to adhere to the guidelines and advice issued by the British Government and Public Health England regarding COVID-19 (Coronavirus) and we are monitoring the situation very closely. At present, there are no plans to cancel any productions or close our Theatre unless a specific scenario occurs. We will keep you updated on our response as the situation evolves.

With only a few days to go until Cambridge Footlights are on our stage, performer Harry Balden spills all on the creation of last month's Footlights Spring Revue: Crossed Wires!
