All children over the age of 12 months must buy a ticket to children’s shows. Please be considerate of other people in the theatre.

Children

Much of our programming is suitable to children aged 10 and up, and some productions are fine for younger children. Please ask our box office staff if you have questions about the suitability of a production.

Please be on time

All performances begin promptly and there are no refunds for latecomers. Latecomers may have to wait until a suitable break in the performance to be seated. If you leave your seat during the performance, we may not be able to re-seat you until the interval.
