Saving Cheltenham Playhouse - 1 word at a time

Eleanor Clark is raising money for Cheltenham Playhouse

12-Hour Monologue · 31 May 2025 ·

Essential fundraising campaign to celebrate 80 years of theatre at the Cheltenham Playhouse (1945-2025) and raise £160k: £80k to celebrate the past and £80k to help secure the theatre and its future in both the short & long term.

Story

I've been at this wonderful little theatre since 2006 and it is the centre of a warm vibrant community. The Playhouse means everyone can enjoy the arts, not only those with money in their pockets.

Tragically, it is now in danger of closing. As part of our £80k for 80 years fundraiser we are having a 12 hour monologue-athon. I have volunteered to take part doing monologues, poems and readings throughout these 12 hours and would be grateful for any sponsorship people may be able to throw my way. Even better if you come and take a seat to cheer or heckle - I will throw in limericks for audience members!

This place has helped me, and many others, through difficult times. Please donate to keep these doors open!
