Friends of RoCo
RoCo's Revamped Annual Membership
Introducing RoCo's revamped annual membership, titled Friends of RoCo, starting from January 1st 2025!
The Friends of RoCo membership will last from January 1st to December 31st of each year.
Who Can Join the Membership?
Anyone can become a Friends of RoCo member! Whether you wish to be directly involved with RoCo productions, or just support us.
You do not have to be a Friends of RoCo member to join our mailing list or to come to our shows, events and activities throughout the year - although there will be a few activities that are exclusive to the membership.
You will have to join the membership however, if you want to take part in any of our productions, whether as a member of the cast or crew.
You don't have to join up to attend an audition (as newcomers are always welcome!), but if you do and are offered a role in one of our productions (and subsequently accept) - you'll then be able to join up if you haven't already done so.
Membership Fee - £5
You can join the Friends of RoCo membership at anytime from January 1st of each year for just £5. Once paid, your membership will last until the end of the calendar year - December 31st.
Joining & Renewals
You can join up or renew an existing membership at any time during the year, either in person at any RoCo event/activity you attend, or online via the contact form that will be at the bottom of this page (from January 1st 2025).
Members will automatically be added to the RoCo mailing list. At the beginning of each year, a reminder that it is time to renew will be posted out. You can renew at anytime, although your membership will not be active until you do so.
Membership Perks
Membership Card - every Friends of RoCo member will receive a special, premium quality membership card (UK only). It takes the form of a loyalty card, and could last you up to 5yrs. Each year you renew your membership, you can get it stamped by one of the RoCo leaders.
Early Access to Tickets - Friends of RoCo members will be able to order tickets to RoCo productions x3 days before they go on general sale. Cast & Crew members will be able to reserve tickets up to x2 weeks before they go on general sale, for the productions they are involved with.
Member Exclusive Activities - RoCo will be holding a few 'outside of production' activities that will be open to everybody to attend, whether they be a Friends of RoCo member or not. Members will also be invited to attend activities that will be exclusive to the Friends of RoCo membership.
Note To Those Who Attended Our 2024 AGM
If you are one of the few who attended our 2024 AGM and paid your membership fee - as was mentioned at the AGM - your membership will last through to December 31st 2025! (So no need to renew in January). You will be able to collect your membership card at a RoCo event/activity that you attend from January 1st 2025 - news on our planned events in the new year will be posted in the near future.

If I join the membership in December, would I still have to renew it a month later in January?
