Earlier in the week it was announced that shows at the Congress Theatre and Devonshire Park Theatre would be going ahead as planned.
However, after Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s statement last night (Monday, March 16), in which he urged people to avoid gatherings and crowded places, like pubs, clubs and theatres, Eastbourne Theatres has made the following statement:

“Customers who have tickets for performances up until April 19 will receive a letter or email, offering them a refund, credit voucher or exchange.
“We are currently trying to re-schedule several shows that fall in this period for later in the year so there may be a short delay before you hear from us.
“If you have booked for a show after April 19, these tickets remain on sale and we will let you know in plenty of time if anything changes.
