New Vic – Next Stage

Take your place in New Vic history. Donate and have a personalised tile added to a unique, permanent artwork.

New Vic – Next Stage will be a unique artwork created by renowned local artist Philip Hardaker and theatre supporters. Tile donations will help fund the New Vic’s major auditorium refurbishment scheduled for summer 2020.

“This is a unique theatre with people at its very heart. It was built by a rightfully proud community and continues because of these strong connections. This wall is a fantastic invitation to continue that relationship in an elegant and relevant way.” Mike Hugo, Actor

Whether to show your support for the theatre, celebrate a special occasion or remember a loved one , one of our bespoke ceramic tiles is a perfect way to take your place in New Vic history.

Designed and handmade by celebrated local artist Philip Hardaker, these beautiful tiles are a great way to support the theatre and can be personalised with a name or message of your choice.

Each ceramic tile donated will be displayed in our foyer to form a unique, permanent artwork for the building and all donations will go towards our Auditorium Refurbishment Appeal helping us to ensure the iconic New Vic Theatre building can continue making unforgettable theatre for generations to come.

All tile donors will be invited to attend an exclusive reception to see the unveiling of the new artwork and hear more about the auditorium refurbishment.
