An Opportunity to Take Young People to the Shakespeare Globe Theatre
We are pleased to announce a special program that offers free theatre tickets and transportation for young people from underserved communities aged 7-16 to the iconic Globe Theatre.
We are a charity dedicated to providing theatre and related educational experiences to children and young people who might not normally have access to the theatre. We provide discounted or free theatre tickets through theatres, schools and youth groups.

The footage in this video is from a recent Cheltenham Everyman Theatre performance. We supported three schools to attend the performance with 81 students. A local Cheltenham film company, Squashed Robot, created this video about our charity. We are very grateful for their big contribution to making this happen.
