When you hear the announcement of a new play, you might think that you have plenty of time to book. It will be on for months after all. But the Rose Theatre also organises One Night Only performances (occasionally two nights), so you have to be snappy if you don't want to miss them. Tickets are £12-£18.
Their current selection is focussing on a number of musical performances, but there are also other things to whet your fancy.
