There are two steps up to row A at the front and 25 steps to row J at the back. The Circle is quite steep and has handrails on both aisles.
Hearing
An infra-red audio system is available in all three theatres. Two types of hearing enhancement are available: headsets for people who don’t use hearing aids, or neck loops for use with a hearing aid by switching it to the ‘T’ position. Headsets are essential and should be collected before the performance from the Box Office in whichever theatre you’re seeing a show.
GUIDE DOGS
Guide dogs can be taken into the auditorium. Please mention this when booking and you’ll be offered an aisle seat, and told about any special effects that might affect your dog’s comfort. Alternatively, guide dogs can be left in the care of front-of-house staff.
