Derry's Playhouse Theatre warns over purchasing tickets from 'unofficial sellers' for Hume play

Derry's Playhouse Theatre is enjoying a successful week as 'HUME - Beyond Belief' in the Guildhall is sold out.

Due to huge demand the play sold out quickly, with the play also being live-streamed for an online audience.

However, the Derry theatre has now warned those who are seeking tickets to use 'caution' in receiving offers of tickets from 'unofficial' sellers.

In a social media post, the Playhouse Theatre said: "We are aware that tickets to the sold out production of HUME - Beyond Belief are being offered online through private resale.

"We ask that customers practice caution and caution our box office to arrange secure ticket transfer instead of buying tickets from unofficial sellers.

"Many thanks for everyone's support during this extraordinary and humbling week."

The Playhouse Theatre told MyDerry how proud they were of the response to the popular play.

They said: "This project begun by the community coming to us acknowledging the subtle and sublime acts of kindness Pat and John did for them. Hearing the outpouring of appreciation for their story in HUME- Beyond Belief is indeed an act of kindness and we are very moved and thank them deeply for that.

"We also hoped to give our city a way to say goodbye to two extraordinary people. We thank everyone who supported that.

"It’s a great privilege to be trusted with the story of John and Pat. A privilege we remind ourselves of every day. We are overwhelmed, honoured and humbled."
