A spokesman said: “Spurred on by regular theatre goers who find they can’t get to the theatre easily unless travelling by car, CFT is delighted to be collaborating with local community transport organisations Chichester Book a Bus, Community Transport Sussex, Selsey Venture Club and the Bourne Community Bus, to launch this accessible trial initiative. The service will be available for specific dates and performances including 2:22 A Ghost Story, We’re Going on a Bear Hunt, Fantastically Great Women Who Changed The World and Drop the Dead Donkey: The Reawakening.

“For dates and the bus schedule visit cft.org.uk/theatrebus or to find out more, call the Box Office on 01243 781312 or contact [email protected].

“The Theatre Bus offers free transport from specific locations. Spaces must be pre-booked and are allocated on a first come, first served basis when tickets are purchased from CFT’s Box Office by phone or in person. All transport is accessible to wheelchair users who can be dropped at their home address.
