What is the production?

Dick arrives in London with his cat and finds work with Alderman Fitzwarren, but Queen Rat Imperia and her accomplices threaten his prospects. An accusation of theft sends the adventure in a new direction before a voyage offers another chance to make his fortune.

The society identifies this as an amateur production presented by arrangement with Stagescripts. Its setting and local company are part of the appeal for audiences interested in supporting community theatre.

Tickets and access performances

Use the production’s official TicketSource link to see performance times and current prices. The theatre also lists an in-person Sunday box office before productions and a box office opening an hour before each show.

The auditorium has an induction hearing loop and removable seats for up to two wheelchairs, with an accessible toilet in the foyer. Arrange a suitable space before booking standard seats.

How to get there

Address: Ifield Barn Theatre, 2 Ifield Street, Crawley, RH11 0NN.

The barn is beside St Margaret’s Church in Ifield. Use its Ifield Street address and the theatre’s directions page for the final approach. A Crawley town-centre itinerary needs an onward journey to this venue; do not confuse it with The Hawth.
