Roundabout is our beautiful new portable in-the-round theatre: a completely self-contained auditorium that flat packs into a single lorry and can pop up anywhere from theatres to school halls, sports centres to warehouses.

We’ve created Roundabout because we’re passionate about new plays and we want as many people as possible to be able to see them. In the coming years, Roundabout will travel the length and breadth of the UK bringing the nation’s best playwrights and a thrilling theatrical experience to people’s doorsteps.

We need all the help we can get to make that dream a reality, and that’s where you come in.

You can help keep Roundabout on the road by naming a seat in the auditorium. Simply make a donation on this page, and we’ll be in touch to ask you what name you want on your very own seat. Our designers will then create a bespoke, lasting thank you for your support, which will travel around the country on your seat in the Roundabout.

By naming a seat you will join our growing band of friends and supporters helping us raise funds to support our work. In this tough funding climate, your support is more valuable than ever. We can only do what we do because of you.   

To name a seat we are suggesting a donation of £500. But we are very grateful for any amount you are able to donate. Every penny will help keep Roundabout on the road. We will acknowledge all donations on our website, and send you news of our travels around the country.

If you have any questions about naming a seat, please contact Aysha Powell:
aysha@painesplough.com / 0207 240 4533

Thank you so much for supporting Paines Plough.

Please Note:

There are 160 seats available for naming.

Seats are allocated on a first come first served basis.

Naming a seat does not include admission to individual events and performances or guarantee reserved seating.

Location of seat purchase is at the discretion of Paines Plough.

Names will remain on seats for a minimum of five years.

We will contact you again when the names are being installed in the new theatre to confirm the wording and design for your dedication.
