- Adapted toilet: An accessible restroom with a RADAR lock can double as a private nursing space.
- Cloakroom available: You can check small bags or coats for a nominal fee.
Challenges:
- Under-3 admission: Babies under 3 are not normally admitted and may be asked to leave if noisy.
- No baby-changing facilities: There are no dedicated baby-changing tables anywhere in the theatre.
- No stroller parking: You must fold your buggy and keep it with you in the foyer or seats.
