Weekly Winners

By Uncategorized

Would you like to help a local charity and have a chance of winning a jackpot of your own?

 

Why not join Weekly Winners – PYT’s major fundraising scheme to raise funds for the PYT Bursary.

 

We are hoping that one high profile fundraising scheme will be more beneficial than an endless stream of different smaller events. By paying via Standing Order there’s no fuss involved and you get the satisfaction of helping a local charity without really having to do very much. Unlike national schemes, there’s also a much higher chance of you winning something!

The funds raised will be for the PYT Bursary which is designed to assist members who may not otherwise be able to participate in PYT activities due to financial barriers. These bursaries will cover up to 100% of the fee for these activities and each application will be carefully assessed on a case by case basis. In order to apply for the Bursary members need to request an application pack as detailed on our ‘Join Us’ page.

Without Weekly Winners subscribers we would be unable to offer this support. If there is any surplus income it will be used towards our creative programme which will benefit all PYT members.

Please click on the button below to learn more about how it works and how to apply.

Honk!

By Uncategorized

Since it first hatched in 1993, Honk! – a charming twist on Hans Christian Andersen’s ‘The Ugly Ducking’ – has winged its way around the world in over 8,000 productions.

Seen by over 6 million people, Honk! has won multiple awards including the 2000 Olivier Award for Best Musical, beating The Lion King and Mama Mia!

“Imagine the colour and wit of Disney’s Jungle Book, mixed with the vivacity of ‘40’s Hollywood musicals, exuberantly staged, and you still only have some idea of how stonkingly brilliant this treat is…”                                                                                                     (Review of National Theatre Production)

If you buy tickets for the opening performance on Tuesday 19 September, we invite you to a complimentary reception in the Rose Room at the Festival Hall after the performance.  With special thanks to MacDonald Oates for sponsoring this event.
