There will be a Behind the Scenes Tour at the Isaac Theatre to raise funds for polio. This is a combined event with Rotary clubs across our Cluster group. A great way to help polio but also meet and have fun with fellow Rotarians in other clubs.

Isaac Theatre Royal Visit details

 

"The visit will take place on Tuesday 31st October starting promptly at 3:30pm. The doors will be open from 3:15 (so please don’t arrive any earlier) and you will be directed up the stairs to the Gloucester Room. There is a lift for those who cannot manage the stairs – indeed the whole visit can have step free access for you.

 

We will have a short 15-minute presentation in the Gloucester room (chairs will be set our for us) on the theatre and the necessary Health and Safety points. The tours will commence at 3:45 and will end at 4:30. We need to be out of the building before 5pm.

 

There is no production set up at present, as the theatre had a cancellation for October. As each production bring their own scenery and props, please do not expect to see the stage all set up for singing and dancing but we will be able to stand on the stage and to see all of the dressing rooms. You may even get to see one of the two ghosts.

 

We have sufficient capacity for 3 tours of 20 people, or 60 people in total. Tours will be charged at $10 per person as a collection for our club Polio Plus donation. For Rotarians we can add that to your account.

 

To Register for the tour please reply to me as soon as possible. We will also be making this tour available to the Inner Wheel. Places are on a first come, first served basis. If we have not filled all of the places by 20th October, I will open the event to other Rotary clubs in our cluster so please get your booking in early to avoid disappointment, don’t delay. When they are gone, they are gone. We cannot add extra places at the last minute."
