This autumn, rail company Southern is putting local theatres centre-stage with an exciting new partnership that promises to thoroughly entertrain.

Teaming up with top regional theatres across its network, the company is offering customers the chance to claim exclusive discounts on spectacular shows in October and November.

With theatres finally being able to pull up the curtains after more than a year of closure, the rail operator is taking the opportunity to support the arts community and highlight smaller, more independent venues that will really benefit from some extra support.

Working with selected theatres from Portsmouth, Chichester and Brighton - the #entertrainment campaign offers limited-edition discounts on top shows for those who travel by train with Southern.

Jessica Blake-Lobb, Marketing Manager, from Chichester Festival Theatre, commented: “Chichester Festival Theatre is delighted to be partnering with Southern to encourage people to take the train and experience the world premiere of Andrea Levy’s The Long Song in one of England’s most striking playhouses. We hope as many people as possible will take the opportunity to see this epic, moving and life-affirming stage adaptation by Suhayla El-Bushra and we look forward to working with Southern.”

The #entertrainment partnership will be live from October until December.
