DIGITAL or outdoor, it’s all about choice.
Providing our community with the options to engage with the arts at a level in which they feel comfortable to return to performance is the best way forward.
We are delighted to be providing opportunities for our patrons and new audiences to engage with our work, through the power of Zoom or through attendance at outdoor performance.
This gives the opportunity for our audiences to decide what they feel ready for and how they feel safe to return to live entertainment, which will be an important step in our industries road to recovery.
This ‘soft’ approach takes steps, to engage with the pre-Covid ‘normal’ activities even if they have to be packaged in altered forms, otherwise our cultural and creative ecology will be lost.
An Evening IN Of Deception, a live magic show, engages our audiences in an interactive event live at home whilst donating a proportion of the ticket money back to our venue.

Our outdoor theatre offering of The Wind In The Willows in the Courtyard at the Royal Porcelain Works will see our patrons sat in socially distanced pods of up to six-person family bubbles.
We will invite patrons to arrive at set times and all tickets must be pre booked. We can’t, of course, control the weather but that is part of the fun and experience and as the play is set by the river bank it may be fitting if it rains, although we are of course hoping for glorious sunshine!
Despite the challenges venues are facing we are endeavouring to continue to provide opportunities for our audiences to access the arts, we hope you will join us at one, when you are ready.
An Evening IN Of Deception – tickets £15 (plus booking fee) one ticket per household (£5 donated to support Worcester Live, please do support this event)
