OPPORTUNITIES

We offer you the chance to reward staff, entertain clients and to have access to Sprite audiences, which vary from other local businesses to local schools, press and the general public.

You can sponsor your own evening show, have a champagne picnic or reception in the castle or advertise in our souvenir programme and reserve tickets for shows, we will find something to suit you. Sponsors are invited an hour before the show begins where they are met by their host. Champagne is served on arrival as your guests enjoy the live pre-show entertainment. Enjoy your first two food courses before the show, then finish the deserts from your deluxe hamper during the interval, allowing you to sit back, relax and enjoy the second half as the sun sets on Ripley Castle and Gardens.

SPONSOR A SCHOOL

Shakespeare – a national treasure. A man who’s work is studied by every school child in the land. A man who’s work was not written to be poured over in a class room but to be watched, and performed, on stage.

Each year Sprite have a huge number of school children who are able to improve their grades due to watching, and enjoying, the exiting productions that we put on in Ripley.

Unfortunately, there are also a huge number of school children who are not able to come and watch the shows; many state schools are often unable to attend because of a shortage of funds. Your commitment can help ensure more school children can come and enjoy the productions we put on.

We would like to follow in the Governments’ recent footsteps and try to make theatre readily available to as many young people as possible, we aim to drastically increase the amount of schools able to come and enjoy our shows, with your help this aim is far more achievable. For just £500 you would ensure 50 children plus their teachers would be able to attend a schools matinee, and if you are a company we will make sure you receive coverage of your support in the Yorkshire Post.”

SPRITE PRODUCTIONS RECEIVES NO LOTTERY OR ARTS COUNCIL FUNDING AND RELIES ON SPONSORSHIP AND DONATIONS TO CONTINUE ITS HIGH QUALITY WORK.
