Inverness theatre will stay closed until June





Eden Court is to remain closed until at least Monday, June 1.

The theatre has announced that customers with tickets for shows during the closure are to be contacted "as soon as possible."

Tickets can still be purchased online at the website www.eden-court.co.uk for shows from June 1 as well as into 2021.

Under Canvas, Eden Court’s much anticipated and popular outdoor summer event in partnership with Fèis Rois, which was scheduled to begin at the start of June will now move to slightly later in the year and more details will be released as they are confirmed.

James Mackenzie-Blackman, Chief Executive of Eden Court said: “This decision has not been taken lightly, but it is, of course, in order to restrict the spread of COVID- 19 and to follow guidance from government.

"The reality is, even if social-distancing measures are relaxed before this date the majority of all the productions and live events that were due to be on our stages before this time have been cancelled, postponed or rescheduled.

"If you have tickets for shows or film screenings between this updated period of closure: April 20 to June 1 - we will be in touch with you soon. Please bear with us.

"The current situation is probably the biggest challenge ever faced by Eden Court. Approximately 75% of all our income is generated from ticket sales, our Café/Bar, Restaurant and Under Canvas. That income, over the course of one week, totally stopped.

"Now more than ever we need your support. If you are able to, please consider making us a donation. All the information on how to do so is available on our website”.
