Overview
I went to see Matthew Bourne's amazing ballet, The Red Shoes - as always outstanding. The Theatre Royal in Norwich give disabled people seats in the front row of the stalls - 2 seats so you can easily park your wheelchair and a seat for your companion (free). Disabled parking is just over the road, good sizable disabled loos, good pre performance supper with willing helpers if you need your food and wine transported - What more do you want for a fabulous evening??
Transport & Parking
Just over the road
Access
A bit of a hill downwards to your seat, not able t manage on my own but very willing helpers.
Toilets
You can actually get in and move around but often has a queue of non disabled as always queues at the ladoes in a theatre!
Staff
All very helpful but not over the top. No "does he take sugar" events thankfully!
Anything else you wish to tell us?
I love the Theatre Royal!!

Thank you for this great review. We're so pleased you enjoyed both the show and your visit to the theatre. In addition to the wheelchair access seats in Stalls row K, we also have an area towards the back of the Stalls which is raised a little (allowing you a view over other people's heads) and an automatic door (making accessing it easy). There is also seating for patrons in wheelchairs (and their companions) in the front Circle. If you try these options in future, do let us know how you get on.
