The Theatre is on three levels (stalls, circle and gallery) this curved auditorium lines up nicely to the stage which provides excellent acoustics for laughter. Tim Clark commenting ‘In such theatres the laughter seems to go right round the venue, ending back where we’re performing. It’s a marvelous experience.’ The jumping jester Adam Bloom loves to use the whole stage in his performance saying ‘I adore this type of theatre, especially when it’s packed, never a better feeling’.
