Ingrid - I have got your ticket ;)

Rest of the forum:

I would suggest that anyone wanting to attend the show to do it NOW!
Having spoken to the lovely lady at Bridport arts centre this morning, she reckons there won't be many left for general sale if any at all!!
Now you will need to buy a membership and that costs

Can anybody living in this area recommend where would be the best place to spend the night around the time of the event in Bridport, if one has never been before in this part of England.
Since Bridport is rather small, would you nevertheless recomend to stay the night there or in West Bay? Or would you recomend to stay in Bournemouth or Poole as there would be more to see and visit?
Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

Just to confirm that Bridport Arts Centre seats only 194 people - so the 5 of us are going to certainly have an intimate afternoon with MK!!!

Bridport is a small, quaint little town and there may well be hotels there but certainly at nearby Dorchester or even where we live in Poole/Bournemouth there is plenty of choice. Ask the lovely people at the arts centre if they have any ideas. They are certainly very helpful..

See you there

(I managed to get 3x 5th row seats by the way!!)

So, let me get this straight. You are all becoming members of an arts centre designed for its local community, just to attend one event, after which you will probably never visit the place again? I'm sorry but I think that's just bonkers. I live only 70 miles away and could quite easily go to this event, but at that distance, Bridport is hardly local to me, so I was certainly not considering membership as a viable option!

Maybe it's bonkers, but look at this site:
they have a lot of new members, so extra income this year.
It's a charity event, so they get even more money than they might have expected from the ticketsales only  :D

Win-win-situation:
they have the money, we have the event  :thumbsup

Yes, but next year they will lose these new members and they will be back at square one.
