We recommend arriving 30 minutes before the performance starts, so you can soak up the pre-show atmosphere and have plenty of time to find your seat.

We put on some family-friendly performances but, generally speaking, we don’t allow children under the age of five in the audience.

If the show allows children under five, under twos go free. If you’re a parent or carer, please book aisle seats to make getting in and out easier.

Under 16s must be accompanied by an adult.
