"WE NEED THEATRE, WE NEED ART... THESE ARE DESPERATE TIMES" Our Honorary Patron Brian Blessed OBE, has recorded a special message sharing his concern for the critical situation theatre is in right now. The reality is that a production like Richard II costs £115,000 to stage, which creates 36 jobs... and GSC do it with zero funding. We understand that spending might be tight at the moment, and we understand that a lesser known play might feel like a risk, but if you like GSC’s work, we passionately believe that you will like this, and if you are worried about taking the risk, you can try our Pay What You Can Nights with an online option as little as £6!
