Compared with a theatre trip
A trip to see a set text usually costs £20 to £32 a pupil once you add the ticket and the coach. It needs letters home, cover for staff, and a day out of lessons, and some pupils miss out because their families can’t contribute.
A visit from us costs a few pounds a pupil, takes a double lesson, and every pupil in the year group sees it.
Questions about cost
How much does a theatre company cost for a school visit?
Our touring shows cost £750 + VAT for one performance and workshop, or £1250 + VAT for two in the same day. Travel is included. For 150 pupils that is about £5.00 a pupil.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Travel is included in the price wherever we tour.
Can we use Pupil Premium?
DfE guidance lists arts participation among the wider approaches schools can fund with Pupil Premium, provided the spending is evidence-informed. See our funding page for the details.
Is it cheaper than a theatre trip?
A theatre trip typically costs £20 to £32 a pupil for the ticket and coach, usually paid by parents as a voluntary contribution. An in-school show reaches every pupil for a fraction of that, but it comes out of the school or department budget.
How do we pay?
We invoice the school after booking. Payment terms are in the booking pack.
