There are four wheelchair positions located at the rear of stalls with room for one companion to sit alongside.

Anyone that transfers from a wheelchair to a seat must be able to walk to the nearest fire exit unaided. Wheelchairs that are not needed during the show will be stored safely away by our Front of House staff.

If you wish to bring your guide or hearing dog to the theatre, please advise the Box Office when booking your tickets, we can then organise a member of staff to care for your dog during the performance and provide your dog with some drinking water. Please note some shows include special effects, e.g. strobe lighting, smoke, pyrotechnics and loud bangs.

We do ask that these be returned after the show to a member of Front of House staff.
