Live theatre is exciting. It can be loud, bright, shocking at times, and occasionally some of the effects we use, or the themes our productions explore, can trigger emotions.
We know that some of our audiences appreciate detailed information on the content of our shows in order to make informed decisions and to prepare themselves or members of their party.
If there are specific themes you are concerned about, you can call our Box Office team on 01789 331111, from midday to 6pm (UK time) Monday to Friday to find out more about our shows and what they contain.

SONIC STORY
We offer a sonic story for The BFG. This is a graphic which highlights the key sounds from throughout the performance. It's available to all audience members, but we hope it will be particularly useful for anyone who might benefit from understanding the sensory elements of the show before they see it.
