  • If you need wheelchair seating or have specific access requirements, call the box office rather than booking online.
  • Leave pushchairs, prams and car seats outside the auditorium; ask the Duty Manager about storing them.
  • Do not take photos or record the performance unless invited by the performer; keep mobile phones switched off in the auditorium.
