If you're a member of a Society rehearsing a Production which is not listed above, please e-mail the relevant details so that I may include you. That way each Society can, if they wish, avoid selecting a show which another group is already committed to perform. Likewise, if you would also declare your 'SASP' (Standard Adult Seat Price*), you will contribute to what is, in effect, a rolling consensus about the realities of seat pricing. If you wish to devise and submit a simple 'html' panel (table), I can insert it with a minimum of fuss.  (You could copy one from above and just edit your details into it.)
* If your SASP varies through the week, quote its maximum (presumably, Saturday Night) value and we can add "CA" to indicate early-day concessions.		 Caught in the act
of putting on my slap !

If you wish to keep me notified 'automatically' of your forthcoming production, I suggest you insert me into your Society's mailing list, at the following postal address, so that I receive a copy of your flyer ticket-order form, from which I can then create a panel on this page.
