Carlton Operatic Society is a charity; any money made from the shows is ploughed back into producing future productions and supporting the aims of the charity. The cost of putting on a professional standard show at the Theatre Royal is considerable. All of our income comes from three sources – membership fees (ranging from £35 - £110 per year), patron donations, and ticket money. Your support helps us entertain the East Midlands with high quality productions whilst inspiring the next generation of theatrical talent.
