SUPPORT US

Over 200 years old but feeling younger than ever….
Whilst our building is 200 years old, we’re a new independent charity who rely on donations to keep the spotlights on. We do not receive any regular public funding, and all our income is self-generated. Every ticket purchased, event hosted, donation made, and pound earned supports our innovative programme and enables the widest possible range of people to experience the magic of The Old Market.
Help us continue to connect communities, make memories, and give talent a place to thrive by making us your charity of choice.
Not every star needs a stage. Become a member today and help us protect the spotlight for future performers, players and moment makers.
You’ll be making a big difference.
