ALL STOCK MUST GO!*

We have a huge array of well built scenery, and carefully sourced props, signage and furniture that are looking for their next home as we downsize our premises.

Beautifully designed and properly maintained, these could all be used or recycled into brand new sets for new shows. We know what costs can be for building a new set - why not come along and fill a van ready for your next production.

Bring a LUTON VAN, and for £500 plus vat you can fill it!

Early bird catches the worm - email [email protected] to book your appointment for your own theatrical ‘supermarket sweep’ - alas no Dale Winton, but slightly less fraught at least.

Please share & spread the word!
We really need your help to get this building emptied.

*Backcloths are not available as part of this deal, but we do have a catalogue of cloths available for sale so you can also drop us an email about that. We can mail these directly to you across the UK.
Beauty and the Beast is not available as part of this deal.
