Light our Stars
At Chickenshed, we believe that everyone has a light to shine. Through the power of inclusive theatre, we change lives every day. Building confidence, creating community, and unlocking the potential of young people from all walks of life.
By supporting our Light Our Stars appeal in 2026 you're supporting the stars of our Christmas Show, 12 Days, helping to light up the future for thousands of young people.
Together, let’s light the stars of tomorrow.
What can your donation fund?
You can choose how much to donate — we are deeply grateful for every gift, whether £1, £100, £1,000 or £10,000. Every pound helps us continue our vital work supporting young people through inclusive theatre.
Everyone who donates will be thanked in our Christmas Show programme*, and invited to light a star in support of a member of the cast or to the wider Chickenshed community.
You can visit us in person to dedicate your star, or email your dedication to louiset@chickenshed.org.uk, where it will be included in our Light Our Stars display in the Chickenshed Café throughout November and December. You are welcome to send as many dedications as you wish.
All donations received by Sun 8 Nov 2026 (including those received after the programme deadline of 10 November 2025) will be included in the 12 Days programme. After this date, supporters will be listed on our website only and thanked in the 2027 programme.
