THEATREGOERS in Southampton can now book their tickets for the Nuffield theatre online at www.nuffieldtheatre.co.uk.

Medhurst, a Hampshire-based IT solutions company, which installed and supports the Nuffield's entire IT system, facilitated the theatre upgrade to Databox 4 - the online ticketing system - enabling customers to buy tickets online.

"This quick, convenient and secure way of buying tickets gives our customers an alternative to telephoning the box office to book.

"We are delighted with this new facility," said, the Nuffield's marketing director, Adam Merrifield.
