During performances and events, accessed from the back, there are four places reserved specifically for theatre-goers in wheelchairs on the right-hand side.

Additional facilities

There are no additional facilities, although the theatre's excellent acoustics make it an ideal concert venue. There are no services to facilitate knowledge of the venue by blind and visually impaired persons.
