General Terms & Conditions

Current Government regulations require each audience member over 16 years old to check in using the NHS COVID-19 app or to supply their name and contact details to gain admittance to the venue. If you make a booking on behalf of others, prior to doing so you are responsible for securing agreement from the members of your group to supply this information. It will not be possible to admit any one who does not comply with the sharing of this information and regrettably no refunds can be offered in that event.

As a precautionary measure during the COVID-19 pandemic, we are no longer issuing paper tickets either to pick up at the box-office or to be posted. All tickets will be electronic tickets and will be sent via email. You are required to present your e-ticket on arrival

Tickets purchased may not be resold for commercial purposes or at a premium. If a ticket is sold in breach of this condition, the bearer of the ticket will be refused admission.

Tara Theatre and its representatives reserve the right to refuse admission and request any ticket holder to leave the Theatre

Tara Theatre might film certain performances in the theatre / studio. By purchasing a ticket you are giving your consent to you and any members of your group being filmed when a performance is being filmed. Tara Theatre has complete discretion as to use any film without recourse to you or any member of your group.

Tickets cannot be refunded unless a performance is cancelled or abandoned.

Latecomers may not be admitted.

Tara Theatre reserves the right to make alterations to the advertised programme.

What is Gift Aid?

Gift Aid is a scheme which allows charities such as Tara Theatre to reclaim basic rate tax paid on any money donated to them by UK tax-payers.

How does it work?

As a UK taxpayer you will pay tax on your earnings, savings or pensions, at either a basic rate of 20% or a higher rate of 40%. If you make a donation to charity, this donation will come from money that you have already paid tax on. As a charity, we can reclaim this tax back from the Government. This means that if you donate £10, and use Gift Aid, it’s actually worth £12.50. Which is great news for us! And because this additional money comes to us straight from the government, not out of your pocket, you would still only be giving us £10 of your own money. Which is great news for you!

The money that we claim back from HMRC as part of the Gift Aid scheme will be treated as unrestricted funds and used to support our general work, even if your original donation was made towards a specific project.
