read morewe really appreciate your support
We are extremely grateful to those of you who have continued to support our work by not requesting ticket refunds.
Our funders have been supportive of our ambition to deliver an alternative programme during this difficult and lonely time of social-distancing.
As a charity, our focus is on your well-being and the welfare of your community, as far as possible our online events and activities will be free to everyone.
The livelihoods of artists will be jeopardised due to this cruel virus, as a publicly funded charity we think it is vital that we continue to support artists through our live online programme.
However, to continue our work at a time when box office income has ceased will be extremely challenging. If you are able to support us with a kind donation, we and the artists we support, will be greatly appreciative.

A beautiful short film about how community tradition can reach out to those living in rural isolation
It’s the last of this season’s Spot On Shorts, and we thought we’d end with something of a party piece from Victor & Albert. No facemasks needed for this whistlestop tubular tour, as we play The Northern Line Bingo! Mind the gap, stand clear of the closing doors, and good luck. Departs this Thursday at 7pm.
Download your bingo sheet to play along here: drive.google.com/file/d/1oHWaHOcGcqgqPquLWk97-S4l93UxEsft/view?usp=sharing
Victor & Alberts Northern Line Adventure
Mind the gap and stand clear of the closing doors because tonight we’re going to play Northern Line Bingo with musical duo Victor and Albert.
This is a story about all the adventures you can have on the Northern Line at a time when traveling the actual tube is perhaps not so advisable. Join us on a whistlestop tubular tour and don’t forget your bingo sheet!
Spot On Shorts is delivered in partnership with Lancashire Libraries, commissioned by The Space and supported by Arts Council England
