Access info: stairs down to the basement, no lift unfortunately.
HOW TO BOOK:
- Tickets are limited to 50
- and are a mere £5 each
- but you have to book a table unless you're on your own, in which case you can pick any free seat when you get there. Table sizes can be from 2-10 people.
- please reserve your table, stating no. of guests, by paying via Paypal using the orange Donate button above, top right
THE LONG VERSION
If you want to sit with your friends, please book a TABLE (for however many are in your group - max 10). If booking for one person, you don't need to reserve a table.
Tickets will be limited to 50 (assuming all tables are full) and our ticket price remains a thrifty £5.
Guests are free to mingle and order at the bar (i.e. table service from bar staff is no longer mandatory). Venue says: "Mask wearing is no longer mandatory but we do encourage it."
How to book: Please use the Donate button on the top right of the LL website page (look up, look right, it's small and orangey-yellow ...) to donate the price of however many tickets you want. So a table for 6 would be £30, but a ticket for 1 is £5. Here's how you do it.
- Click the Donate button
- Enter the amount: £5 for 1 ticket, £10 for 2 etc. (you have to type in 5 - 0 - 0 for £5, it's slightly non-intuitive)
- Click Donate. This will take you to your Paypal login (if you don't have Paypal get someone else on your table to pay for tickets :)
- IMPORTANT: Where it says Add a note please enter your name plus how many you want on your table. E.g. Katy Darby, Table for 4 ...
- Ideally, tick the Share your email address button so we can contact you if there's any problem
- Click Donate Now
- And you're done!
N.B. ALL donated funds (after Paypal fees) support contributing actors & authors: we take nothing.
