Patron of Polka Theatre and judge on ITV’s Britain’s Got Talent, Amanda Holden made a special visit to kick start the £1 million public fundraising campaign for Polka and to share the exciting news that one lucky family will have the opportunity to win four tickets to the live semi-finals of Britain’s Got Talent in a prize draw.
“I first became aware of Polka Theatre around 2008 when my daughter Lexi was about two years old. Since then we’ve seen so many shows there together and as a family.
“The staff at Polka have always been delightful and we’ve loved every show we’ve seen, however, the building is in desperate need of renovation. The new space will provide better access for performers and children who take part, their first on-site rehearsal space, a new cafe and a brand new theatre made especially for very young children.
“It is enormously beneficial for children to experience the atmosphere of sitting in a theatre to open their minds and imaginations from an early age. Going to the West End can be an expensive activity for a family which is why investment in local theatres is essential.”
Money-can’t-buy tickets to the live semi-finals of BGT. Enter at polkatheatre.com/bgt/ by midnight on March 31.
