Following official government advice issued yesterday (Monday 16 March), stipulating that people should avoid public buildings including theatres to help slow the spread of coronavirus, it’s announced today that the Theatre Royal & Royal Concert Hall in Nottingham will be closed until Sunday 12 April.
Ticket holders for performances during this closure period will be contacted directly by the box office team and offered a full refund. These ticket holders will not need to contact the venues directly.
Due to the number of performances involved it may take some time to process these refund transactions, or to respond to other enquiries, so we ask our customers to bear with us at this busy time and thank them for their patience and understanding.
Peter Ireson, Venue Director for the Theatre Royal & Royal Concert Hall said: “The health and wellbeing of our customers, visiting companies and staff is our top priority so, in light of the government’s latest advice, this was a tough but clear decision for us to make.
“I would like to take this opportunity to thank our audiences for their patience and understanding and to thank them for the many kind-hearted messages of support we have received over recent days. I am also extremely grateful for the extraordinary level of commitment shown by our dedicated team of staff throughout this very challenging period. Over the coming weeks we will continue to closely follow Public Health England and the government’s recommendations, and hope to be able to welcome audiences back to both our venues in the near future.”
