Derngate 40th anniversary to be celebrated with fundraising Gala Dinner
and live on Freeview channel 276
This celebratory Gala event, held in the Derngate auditorium itself, offers supporters of the theatre the chance to enjoy an evening of reminiscence and entertainment, alongside a delicious three course meal.
The proceeds raised from the evening will go towards supporting the Derngate at 40 campaign, which focuses on providing opportunities for young people to engage in youth theatre, increasing provision for access performances, and helping to regenerate the auditorium for future theatregoers. The support received throughout this campaign will enable Royal & Derngate to produce and offer high quality theatre experiences for the next 40 years.

26,000 young people engaged in Royal & Derngate’s youth theatre activities and community led programmes last year, with an additional 18,000 engaging in its Unlock Theatre and Beyond the Stage opportunities. With the help of charitable donations, the theatre can continue to nurture future creative talent and offer bursaries to ensure that finance should be no barrier to a child fulfilling its creative potential.
