Accessibility Details
If sitting near the front, you may be chosen for some festive audience participation. Viewing restrictions will also apply on the first row, as you will be looking up for the entire performance, and will be much closer to the haze effects and may have lighting/staging obstructions.
Additional Notes
There are limited booster seats on request; welcome to take a cushion. Buggies and car seats are not permitted in the auditorium and can be left just outside with the front-of-house team.
Age Guidance
All ages are welcome, babes in arms up to 2 years, can go for free, but have to sit on laps. However, if a child requires a seat, they will need to pay for a ticket. The advice is to book near an aisle so if it gets too much for little ones, they can easily be taken out by their guardian and are welcome to relax in the bar.
