Donmar Warehouse

I had a lovely time at the Donmar, it is definitely one of the more accessible theatres in the west end. On this particular day, I attended the theatre using my walking stick.

I won't be mentioning the booking process or financial subsidiaries in place for this show at the moment as I'm currently in talks with the theatre about improving these! I will say that, while this work is still in progress, they made sure I was able to utilize future policies NOW so I didn't miss out on this whopper of a show. Firstly, other access elements: Their website is great and easy to navigate, with lots of detailed information on it (eg. accounts of the physical space including the number of stairs, lift specifications and wheelchair accessible entrances). A show with themes as heavy as this one means it is so important that the trigger warnings are available & accurate and the Donmar did NOT disappoint! QR codes leading to supportive resources everywhere, pages dedicated to it in the programme, and ushers who knew how to answer any questions about it. Brilliantly done and it just goes to show that professional input in these matters really makes a difference. Again, I would always recommend having people's pronouns in their bio, or at least the option for this, and adding audio described and relaxed performances to the run!
