Venue Description
"The West End of the North East" With 1,860 seats and the capacity to accommodate 2,000, it's the region's flagship theatre.
Accessibility
There are eight spaces in the stalls where wheelchair users can remain in their wheelchairs. Access is on the flat via a lift. Alternatively patrons may wish to transfer to a fixed seat, with vacated wheelchairs stored in the nearest bar area. Please note that patrons must be able to vacate the building quickly in case of evacuation. If you are unsure of the best option for you, please discuss this with our box office staff when booking. Please note that the Upper Circle and Gallery are not accessible by lift and are therefore unsuitable for those with limited mobility.
