On Sunday 13 October, our valiant runners will take part in Run Leicester's Half Marathon and 10km runs and support Curve Theatre's mission to ensure all young people, regardless of their background or financial circumstances, can access, enjoy and shape the future of theatre.

By making a donation today, you will be supporting our runners and free bursary places for our Curve Young Community Company groups. These popular workshops run across the school year and welcome each week 500+ young people aged 5 – 19 years with an interest and passion for performing arts.

In a recent survey conducted among participants of Curve’s youth programmes, 87% stated that these activities had a very positive impact on their wellbeing, 81% said that they helped them make friends, and 88% felt that they increased their knowledge and skills.

Every year, over 40% of Curve’s CYCC places are offered free of charge. This is really important in a city where many families face high costs and fewer opportunities to participate in the arts.

Support us today and share the joy of theatre with the next generation of artists, creators and audiences!
