We are committed to making your visit to The Royal Hippodrome Theatre an accessible and enjoyable experience.
Essential Companion Scheme
The theatre operates a free scheme for those who need an Essential Companion to accompany them at a show in order to assist them. Application forms to apply for the scheme are available from the Box Office or can be downloaded by clicking the link HERE.
Accessibility
The ground floor of The Royal Hippodrome is step free. There are two wheelchair spaces accessible at street level and disabled toilet facilities. The Stalls bar is also accessible. Unfortunately, there isn’t a lift in the theatre so the only way to reach the Dress Circle and the Upper Circle is via the stairs.
Loop system
The Royal Hippodrome Theatre has a hearing loop in both the Stalls and Dress Circle for hard of hearing and deaf patrons.
Relaxed performances
Elements of the production are adapted to reduce anxiety or stress. Relaxed performances welcomes those who would like to see the show in a less formal atmosphere, including (but not limited to) those who experience sensory overload, people with a learning disability and parents with very young children.
