Accessibility

The theatre building, foyer and auditorium are fully accessible to wheelchair users. Please speak to the Theatre Manager or a steward when you arrive if you require further assistance.

The main auditorium has spaces for up to 5 wheelchairs. Advance booking is always advisable for these spaces.

We have two designated disabled bay parking spaces, so we advise arriving at the theatre in good time to secure these or to park near the building.

The main auditorium has a loop system installed. Hearing aid users can amplify the sound from the stage by switching their aid to the 'T' setting.
