THE ATTIC THEATRE

After several break-ins in early 2022, £200 was stolen along with

the box office laptop, printer and speaker. The fire doors were

forcibly knocked down using a fire extinguisher and the box office

signage was badly damaged resulting in the theatre being unable

to use the materials.

​

A wonderful collection of students, formerly taught by our Artistic 

Director John-Robert Partridge at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire,

led the fundraising campaign after hearing about the atrocities. They

set-up a Go Fund Me page and encouraged small donations from 

students, performers, creatives and supporters to reach the required amount to repair or replace the amount needed.

​

Fundraising is always a challenge and particularly at the moment but the efforts of tireless supporters has led to an incredible £1,289.16 being raised to go towards repair costs of the box office signage and the stolen hardware, smashing the target of £1000. This allows for associated costs of upgrading and new replacement technology. The whole team at Tread the Boards wishes to say a huge thank you is due to those who donated and who took the time to help gather funds - we are overwhelmed and flattered by your generosity.

​

We are currently working with the talent at 'Rocket Visual Solutions Ltd' to design and make the new signage and look forward to having it up later in 2022!
