Performances in the theatre

Performances

The Tier2 rulings mean that, with safety and distancing measures in place, we ARE able to go ahead with all our plans for December. Seating will be limited to protect us all, so we ask all audience members to please book their tickets in advance so that we can be sure of numbers of people in the building. Details of the current Covid-safe procedures are on the Your Visit page.

Due to partial-furlough working, our box office will NOT be staffed most days so please make your bookings online; the booking system DOES accept Credit Card payments as well as PayPal (the credit card payment button can be found towards the last stage of the payment process).

If you have any queries email merlintheatreoffice@gmail.com
