Katy Koren, Artistic Director at Gilded Balloon says the fundraiser is close to her heart.
She said: "We love Pink Wednesday which is our annual fundraiser, my Mum Karen had breast cancer so every year we dress up and play our part for charity.
"It's a beautiful day today, so head on down, take advantage of £5 tickets on some of our shows, enjoy our food and drinks offers and we've prizes for the best dressed in pink. So far we've seen a pink dragon, a panto dame and a pink elephant!"
