Discover the top five reasons to love theatre and win tickets to experience it for yourself. 

There are tonnes of reasons to adore live theatre performances, but if you need some persuading or are a first-timer, here's why a theatre trip should be next on your date night plans or places to try with friends: 

1. Live theatre performances are a magical and unique experience - It's unlike anything you've seen before. Even if the show you're going to see is based on your favourite film or book, trust us this will add a whole new perspective to the story, filled with fun, emotion and inspiration. 

2. It's a great way to socialise - Whether attending a show with your partner, a friend or a family member, the theatre is a great place to connect and spend quality time together. You could even meet some new friends, after bonding over the experience with other like-minded individuals. 

3. For two to three hours everything else fades away - A night at the theatre is the ideal place to escape the stresses of daily life and leave behind your troubles. 

4. You'll become immersed in the story - Witnessing a live show pulls you in, in such a way that no other form of entertainment can. It will move you to laughter, tears and happiness and you'll be able to connect and relate to the characters you're watching and feel as though you're going through the journey with them. 

5. It's a great way to support the local arts - Art is an important part of life and by attending the theatre you'll be helping to keep the local community and artists thriving. 

But more than anything the best reason to go to the theatre is that it's unbelievably fun and isn't an experience you should miss out on. That's why we're offering one lucky newspaper reader the chance to win a £200 theatre ticket.
