As for programme sales, people usually won't buy more than 10-20 a night, so try and be realistic. This can get you anywhere from £50 - £400, but it all depends on what you can offer them. It's always a good idea to hunt around and see if companies and local businesses will give your show some money in return for their logos on your posters or an advert in the programme. Now you can fill in the other income you may recieve such as programme sales and society sponsorship. Once you have filled out all of this, the budget form should have worked out the net and gross income from ticket sales. Again, the usual run time is Wednesday to Saturday every evening, but you can add an extra matinee on the Saturday, or an extra Tuesday performance as well, it's up to you. It's quite good to keep the price for a PA ticket at £5 but for the student and adult prices, you can vary it depending on how much you think people will be willing to pay.įinally you must put in how many nights your show will be running for.
You must then estimate how this number is divided up between adults, students and PA members, with usually an equal number of PA members and students attending, and fewer adults, setting ticket prices for each. On average, the least audience capacity we've had for our shows is around 40%, so for the Annex Theatre, where most of our shows choose to perform, the capacity is 130 seats making that 52 people per night. We start off with the predicted number of audience each night. The values in red above are the only values you have to input, and all other figures will be worked out for you.
First you will need to estimate how much income your show is going to generate, remembering that on a budget, you want to estimate the least possible income with the most possible expenditure and if that still comes out as a profit, then any more income will only be a good thing.
