A dating app for those looking for a special theatre companion will go live at the end of April.

Courtyard Courting, developed by Hereford arts centre The Courtyard, is equipped with an algorithm designed to match users based on theatre genres they are interested in, as well as the frequency of theatre visits, their age and location.

Discounts will be available on selected films and live shows for users who matched via the app.

Courtyard Digital Marketing Officer Leah Adkins said the app is “like Tinder for theatre fans”.

“First dates can be daunting, and we’re pleased to be able to provide a safe environment for singles to meet and bond over their passion for the arts.”
