Name a Seat

Here’s your chance to become part of the furniture at the Gatehouse for the next 10 years, with our new ‘Name a Seat’ programme.

Whether you’re looking for the perfect gift for a loved one, mark a special moment, say thank you to a friend, or honour a fellow theatre lover, sponsoring a seat in the main auditorium is the perfect memento of happy hours spent at the Gatehouse down the years.

It might just be a memorable quote, or a tribute to your favourite act – the choice is yours.

Your support will make a big difference and help towards projects including our Gatehouse Youth Theatre groups, which give local youngsters their first taste of theatre, our Dementia Friendly Classic Film Afternoons, or our ongoing support for local community groups.

Simply choose what you’d like to say on your specially-engraved metal plaque and we’ll proudly display it on a seat of your choice for the next 10 years. The plaques are 76mm x 50mm Gilt Self Anodised aluminium plate, which can be engraved with up to four lines of text or a maximum of 75 characters.

Donations are £150 per seat (although you can add an extra amount if you wish).

You will also receive a downloadable Certificate of Thanks and a picture of the plaque in place (we will also happily arrange a visit to the theatre for you to grab your own photo).

So sponsor a seat today – and there’ll always be a part of you at the Gatehouse.

For further information, please contact the Box Office on 01785 619080.

The Importance of Being… Earnest?

FLASH SALE: TICKETS JUST £10 with code EARNEST10

Hold onto your handbags and hone your Wildean wit, as Say It Again, Sorry? presents: The Importance of Being… Earnest? a brand new interactive production inspired by Oscar Wilde’s classic play.

When a traditional production of Oscar Wilde’s classic play gets under way, everything seems to be going perfectly to plan… that is, until the lead actor fails to arrive on cue.

Chaos erupts and the theatre company needs YOU to jump in and save the show. This HILARIOUS experience is different every night and will be coming to the Gatehouse this April.

It’s a riotous night when anything can happen, but the laughter is guaranteed. If you liked Crimes in Egypt, Crimes on Centre Court etc, it would be a crime to miss this!

You might think you know this chaotic story of love, mistaken identity and double-lives, but you have never seen it like this before.

Filled with wicked Wildean wit and bursting with Bunburying, join us for a hilarious and unpredictable twist on the world’s favourite comedy classic.

Straight from the Edinburgh Fringe Festival to your doorstep.
