How do I run a Pre-Theatre Club?

Theatre crowds arrive at exactly the time many restaurants need them — a Pre-Theatre Club packages that up properly. Build it in Your club, under What members get.

Set it up

Anything the menu marks Off shows Switched off when you open it: press Switch on and set it up (on a phone, + Add more lists them). Changes wait for Save in the bar at the bottom of the page, or at the top right of an offer’s full-screen editor on a phone.

1. Curtain-call menu, wine included. Press Flat ongoing benefit in the menu. Choose Set price. In What they get, write your fixed pre-theatre menu, plus “a glass of house wine or soft drink included”. In What they pay, enter your member price. Under When it can be used, press Add limits and set Until to your last pre-show sitting. Press Save limits, then Save.
2. Pre-show table priority. Press Club perks in the menu, then Add a perk. Write a Heading such as “A small allocation of early tables kept for members”. Under Call to action, choose Phone or Link. Press Done.
3. Interval-ready dessert. Add another perk with a Heading such as “Ask for dessert timed to keep you comfortably pre-show”. Press Done, then Save.

What members get

The pre-theatre menu at member price with a glass of house wine or soft drink included, first look at early tables, and dessert timed so they’re never rushing for curtain-up.

What your staff need to know

Scan the pass: the menu shows ready before your last pre-show sitting. Table priority and the timed dessert are Club perks, listed under Club perks when you scan — nothing to redeem, just honour the booking and time the order.

How you’ll know it’s working

The Flat ongoing benefit card on What members get shows how many members claimed the menu this month.
