BRINGING THE CURTAIN DOWN
ON CLASS INEQUALITY IN THEATRE

Ardent Theatre Company is a registered charity with a mission to end class inequality in theatre. We aim to produce theatre, provide training and remove barriers to ensure at least 50% of actors employed in theatre are from working-class backgrounds and that anyone who wants to access theatre as an audience member has that opportunity.

HOW YOU CAN HELP

SUPPORT

One of the best ways to support us is coming along to our events and buying tickets to our shows. By funding and supporting our work you are providing a platform for the outsider voice, paid employment for working-class actors and affordable ticket prices for all.

Could you afford to give £3 a month to help us bring the curtain down on class inequality?

If you can give more or can only afford less, every single pound matters. By making a regular donation you are giving us the stability we need to make long-term plans and produce theatre, training and resources that have a real impact on people’s lives in our fight to end class inequality in theatre.

If you are a UK taxpayer, please tick to add Gift Aid to your donation so that Ardent can claim an extra 25p for every £1 you give. Donations are managed via Just Giving. They will automatically add a small tip to cover processing charges. If you’d rather not tip, click enter custom amount when prompted and change the tip amount to £0.

If you would prefer to make a donation directly or set up your own Direct Debit, please EMAIL US.
