Tips & Advice

  • Aim to reach the parking garage at least half an hour before the show, because queues and small delays often build up at the car parks.
  • Ask for a seat cushion at the cloakroom as soon as you arrive, because only a limited number are available for small children.
  • Leave large bags at home, because only handbags smaller than A4 are allowed in the hall and bigger ones must go to the cloakroom.
  • Have snacks and drinks in the foyer before the show, because food and drinks can't go into the auditorium and you can't bring your own.
  • Arrive on time, because performances start promptly and latecomers have to wait for a scene break before they can go in.
