Learn about the theatre building's history in this 75 minute backstage tour that takes in the stage, dressing rooms, 400-seat auditorium and fly tower.
Older children (12 years and above) and adults can join a 75 minute backstage tour that takes in all levels of the theatre – from the stage, 400-seat auditorium and dressing rooms to climbing the fly tower used to hang lighting, scenery and stage effects during a show. This provides a whole new perspective of the stage, rarely seen by theatre-goers. Learn about the building’s history – once a hotel, then a cinema – and about the infamous ghosts.
This tour involves steps but can be adapted, to an extent, for people with mobility issues. Please inform the Box Office when booking tickets so arrangements can be made.
