Gala Fundraising Evening for Waterloo East Theatre @ The Violin Factory

Keep the magic alive! Join us for Waterloo East Theatre's Gala Fundraising Evening. The lights may have dimmed, but the magic of Waterloo East Theatre hasn't faded. For nearly 14 years, we've brought laughter, tears, and unforgettable stories to our audiences. But after two years of lockdown and a challenging year since, the impact has taken a significant toll on the theatre's finances, threatening its ability to keep the stage alive and we need your help to keep the curtain rising. On Thursday March 7 at 7.30pm we're hosting a Fundraising Gala Evening to raise some vital funds for our future, to ensure the magic continues. The Gala Evening promises a night of dazzling entertainment hosted by the STAR of stage and screen JESSICA MARTIN with Musical Direction by Inga Davis-Rutter and will feature performers from previous productions at Waterloo East Theatre with some special guests. As a generous local supporter has offered us their beautiful award-winning venue, the Fundraising Gala will be held at The Violin Factory 35a Cornwall Road SE1 8TJ, which is just around the corner from the theatre. Your ticket will include a welcome drink, some nibbles and an evening of entertainment and fun, and will be an investment in the future of the theatre. Tickets must be purchased in advance from www.waterlooeast.co.uk and are limited due to the size of the venue. Book early! Join us for an evening of laughter, music, and theatre community spirit, and help ensure that the curtain does continue to rise at Waterloo East Theatre! If your unable to attend, you can still help by making a donation via our website donations link. Hope to see you there!
