You wanna be in my gang?

I have to say I did hesitate on this selection of choice lyric for obvious reasons, but sometimes I find it hard to find a fitting lyric as a blog title and in desperate times...

Anyway, it isn't my gang; it is Bush Theatre's gang. Or rather their Bush Local club. A dedicated club for local people to benefit from a wide range of reductions and special offers. Best of all, becoming a member is free.

I feel like a broken record, or the theatre equivalent (a torn script perhaps?), but I really cannot stress enough how pro-local community and pro-local people Bush Theatre is which became very apparent by their free (or subsidised) tickets for locals to the recent Where's My Seat?.

So we know that "local'' means a lot to Bush Theatre, but geographically speaking what does local really mean to Bush Theatre? To be precise it means living within a 2 mile radius of the Bush Theatre so that actually includes people living in W12, W4, W6, W10, and even some of the SW and NWs.

To become a member you simply visit the Bush Theatre website page for Bush Local, chuck a glance over the Ts & Cs, download, print and complete an application form (which took me 2 minutes 13 seconds in total, yes I timed it) and then pop it in the post to the Box Office (at Bush Theatre, 7 Uxbridge Road, W12 8LJ - wow, I am feeling helpful). You will then receive a membership card in the post. This Bush Local card then entitles you to the following lovely treats and special offers:

• £10 tickets to previews
• 10% off tickets to other performances
• 10% off drinks and food at our new Café Bar
• 10% off playtexts from the Bush Shop
• 10% off space hire at our new building
• Special offers and news about Bush productions and events
• Invitations to exclusive bush local events
  

So what are you waiting for?

P.S. If anyone can download print and complete in less than 2 minutes 13 seconds I want to know about it!
