NOTE -We believe that the arts have both the potential and responsibility to support the strengthening of communities and in actively fighting against injustices that provide a select few in society opportunities that should be accessible to everyone. We are constantly pushing ourselves to find new ways to collaborate with individuals and communities across the Midlands in seeing how we can develop projects that aren’t just artistically enjoyable but that enable space for reflection on how to make our communities more open, safe and without prejudice. Because of this, we do not want to put any financial barriers between our work and our audiences - if you find this is the case, please email us on chris@letmeinpresents.co.uk and we can discuss alternative ticketing arrangements to enable you to come to the event if you wish to. FAQs When do doors open? Doors will open 45 minutes before the music begins, meaning they will open at 6.45pm. This will give you ample time to come into the space, find your seat and relax before the music begins at 7.30pm. What are the stage times? There is no support act, so the music will begin at 7.30pm sharp. There will be two sets with a 20 minute interval, with the event finishing around 10.15pm. Will there be strobes/haze/flashing lights? Yes, there will be strobes and flashing lights throughout the performance, so we recommend that this production is not suitable for those with epilepsy or that struggle with strobes and flashing lighting. Haze will be used where possible, venue permitting. What age is the performance suitable for? This performance is suitable for all ages, however, there are some intense lighting and sound moments throughout the evening, and we would recommend parental discretion. Anyone under 16 must be accompanied by an adult (18+). What are the seating arrangements? When you book your tickets, you can select which section you would like of unreserved seating. This gives you first-come-first-served access to that section of seating and does not guaratee you a particular seat. We will ensure that all parties are sat together. Is there disabled access? It is incredibly important to us that our performances are accessible to everyone that wants to come - therefore, we have ensured that An Evening of Pink Floyd is accessible to all. We recognise that not all accessibility is visible, therefore we have separated ticketing into two bands - Accessible and Wheelchair Accessible.

From here, our staff will ensure everyone is happy and comfortable. Please note that companion tickets are free of charge, when purchased with an Accessible Ticket. What is the view like in the restricted view section? The restricted views seats are at the sides of the main nave, and can range from a decent view to being behind a pillar. These are unreserved, so you can end up getting a great spot if you arrive early, however, the price reflects the inconsistency of these views. Will there be refreshments on site? There will be an affordable selection of refreshments being sold on site, and you are encouraged to buy from the on site bar to help the Cathedral continue the community engagement work it does. Will there be parking on site? There are various car parks nearby to the venue, including city centre parking. Will there be toilets on site? Yes, there are toilets on site.

Shakespeare’s greatest work gets the full treatment as we proudly present the US premiere of Shit-faced Shakespeare®: Hamlet . This timeless examination of the nature of humanity is performed in an hour, so “To be or not to be” gets answered quickly! Grab a drink and enjoy as we prove that brevity is indeed the soul of wit- helped with a bit of wine! With a genuinely drunken professional actor each night, no two shows are ever the same. Shit-Faced Shakespeare seeks to introduce a new generation of theatre-goers to the works of the Bard by reviving the raucous, interactive and vibrant nature of Elizabethan theatre with a very modern twist - reminding them as we go to always enjoy Shakespeare responsibly. Admission Please note this is an adult show recommended for ages 16+ Valid ID is required to purchase alcohol and will be checked regardless of age. Ticket Policies Ticket Fees There is a small fee when using online ticketing platforms. In days past, we included that fee amount in the ticket price, but for this production, we are choosing to advertise the ticket price and noting that additional fees will be charged. As is compliant with our own beliefs and state law, you will see those fees clearly stated before you make your purchase. We hope this will not deter you from joining us! Refunds Refunds for any reason can be requested up to 48 hours prior to the performance start time (aka "curtain"). After this point tickets are non-refundable. If you are unable to use your tickets, consider gifting them to a friend. We are sure they would appreciate it! Discount Codes We believe theater should be affordable. We clearly state any fees up front and we do not jack up our prices only to offer a multitude of discounts to make it look like you are getting a deal. Our ticket prices are reasonable and we are worth every penny. That being said, we do offer discounts on occasion. These discounts are only announced via our emails and our socials . You are responsible for entering the codes correctly and choosing the correct ticket. We cannot make adjustment to tickets outside of our regular refund/exchange policies. Discount Ticket Sites: This performance is not listed on any discount sites. Please only purchase tickets directly though Eventbrite. Content Curious? Our shows feature murder, treason, war, violence (personal, sexual, and national), suicide, regicide, incest, and blasphemy- and that is just the Shakespeare! Our drinker has been known to contribute profanity, and the occasionally bare butt-cheek. If any of this puts you off, maybe another show is more your speed. But also, we do have sword fights, loud sounds, and flashing lights if those affect your person. Information Source: Shit-faced Shakespeare | eventbrite

Current and forthcoming projects include the Hayward Touring exhibition Acts of Creation: On Art and Motherhood at Dundee Contemporary Arts (19 Apr–13 Jul 2025); An Edible Family in a Mobile Home (1976) remade in 2023 as part of Women in Revolt!
