Local businesses have been placing advertisements in our production programmes for many years. There are usually two productions per year, one in June and one in October/November. 

The size of our audience depends on the type of production and the capacity of the theatre. Our recent spring productions took place in the Theater Rampe, which has a capacity of 200. Both our 2014 spring production, "Calendar Girls" and "Dracula" in 2016 attracted an audience of between 900 and 1000. 

Our recent November productions of one-act plays, including "True Colours" in 2015 and "The Zoo Story"/"Alas, poor Fred" in 2016, have taken place in the smaller Theater Arlecchino, which has a capacity of 110. They have attracted correspondingly smaller audiences of between 400 and 500 each.

The demographic of our audience is diverse, ranging from teenagers to senior citizens. While most are members of the expatriate English-speaking community, we have also been attracting an increasing number of Swiss, German and French audience members. 

Advertisements can be placed in the programme for both productions or in one programme only. We do not charge for the programmes, although we ask that audience members make a voluntary contribution to cover design and printing costs, which can be substantial. 

The Deadline for submission of adverts is about four weeks before opening night as published on our website under "What's on" and "Next production".
