“Where performances do not proceed, we will make contact with customers at the appropriate time to advise on the next steps.

“We would ask all customers to refrain from contacting the box office unless absolutely necessary to do so. Please be assured that we are working as quickly as possible to understand the implications and to put appropriate steps in place.

“We want to be here to provide affordable, high-quality live entertainment to Bognor Regis and the surrounding areas and will continue to think of ways we can still connect with you all. Now is a time to be kind, support our most vulnerable and work together. We will contact all bookers, hirers and promoters as soon as possible and will let you know when we are able to reopen and look forward to welcoming you back.

“If you would like to make a general donation to help the theatre survive, we would be grateful beyond measure. Thank you for your patience and understanding during this difficult time.”
