This review is especially helpful for those who have or use the following: Powerchair

Overview

The Yvonne Arnaud Theatre was not just accessible but for a change the wheelchair spaces were located just 6 rows back in the stalls with plenty of space and a good view. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the disabled entry and toilet located just a few metres away. Disabled patrons receive £5 off per ticket and a carer goes for free.

Transport & Parking

2

I have been to this theatre on many occasions but never managed to park in the 2 disabled spaces. These spaces are also located parallel to the kerb and not very accessible for a WAV. There are a further 3 blue badge spaces located in a public car park 100 metres away. The car park is large and considering the number of blue badge holders I am surprised there are only 3 designated blue badge spaces.

Access

Access to the auditorium is via separate entrance to the left of the main entrance. There is a gentle ramp into row F of the stalls. The staff were very helpful as we initially went into through the main entrance to the bar for a drink and then a member of the box office staff came outside with us to direct us to the wheelchair entrance. Lots of people use this exit to leave the theatre so I had to get my companion to stop the flow of people to allow me to reverse and leave the building.

Toilets

Accessible disabled loo with a sliding door. Great location just a few metres from the disabled entry/exit. See photo !

Staff

The box office staff were very helpful when I booked to check there was enough space for my power chair and kindly directed us to the accessible entrance to the theatre.

Anything else you wish to tell us?

Although there are only 2 wheelchair spaces for a reasonable sized theatre they were in a great location and the discount available is very generous.
