Prizes on offer from the online auction, which will open on Tuesday, April 28,, include a truly unique framed landscape painting by Dame Judi Dench, a gift from the theatre’s esteemed Patron.
This stunning piece, painted in 2025, represents one of Dame Judi’s last paintings, making it a remarkable addition to any collection.
There’s also a personally signed wing collar and bow tie that Sir David Suchet wore as Poirot plus a signed photo of the man himself.
In addition to the auction there will also be a prize draw which is now live and includes fabulous prizes such as, a signed copy of Hugh Bonneville’s book, Playing Under the Piano, bed and breakfast at the Aviator Hotel in Farnborough, afternoon tea for two at the Yvonne Arnaud theatre, two standard Vanbrugh supporter memberships at the theatre lasting one year, four tickets for the 2026 pantomime, Sleeping Beauty, two tickets to any show at the Yvonne Arnaud Theatre, and a 75 Minute bespoke facial from the Foundation Beauty Studio and many more.

Celebrities confirmed, with more to follow, are Patricia Hodge, James Bolam, Sue Jameson, Dillie Keane, Robert Duncan, Julian Glover, Isla Blair and the much-loved panto Dame and radio DJ Peter Gordon, to name a few.
