This production/event is part of Little but LIVE! 2022, an outdoor arts festival run by Paperback Theatre in Moseley Park. Taking place from 16th - 18th September, the programme includes stand-up comedy, live music, poetry, creative workshops and more. All tickets are capped at £5, with many free events as well. You can explore the rest of the programme at paperbacktheatre.com.

Paperback are passionate about allowing as many people as possible to come to Little but LIVE! We work hard to keep ticket prices low and give as many away for free as we can. This year the festival is supported by Arts Council England, but we are still reliant on donations for our funding, so please consider making a donation on top of the cost of your ticket. No amount is too small and all donations go towards helping us bring the festival back next year and providing as many free tickets as possible to those who might not otherwise be able to attend. If you don't wish to make a donation, simply set the donation amount to £0 when you book.

Refunds, Returns and Exchanges

Please note that we are not able to issue refunds for any of our paid events, except in the case that the event has sold out and we can re-sell tickets.

If you have booked a free ticket but can no longer attend the event, please do return it as it really helps our team. We want as many people as possible to be able to attend Little but LIVE! and to take advantage of all the free tickets on offer. By returning any free tickets you no longer need you are helping us to do this.

If you have booked for a performance of The Comedy of Errors and would like to exchange your tickets to a different day, please email us at paperbacktheatre@gmail.com.
