Access
We’d like your visit to the Exeter Northcott Theatre to be as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. If you require any assistance please inform the Box Office on 01392 493493 in advance of your visit. Though not essential, you are advised to book in advance so that we can readily provide any assistance. There is level access to the theatre via our front entrance on Stocker Road and via our rear entrance on The Queen’s Drive. The upper levels of the theatre and the auditorium are accessed by a lift. Disabled patrons may also bring a companion FREE of charge.
The main auditorium has 6 wheelchair spaces on Row G.
There is level access from Row G to an accessible toilet.
There are 4 parking spaces for blue badge holders on The Queens Drive, to the rear of the theatre. Additional blue badge parking is available at Northcote House.
Assisted Hearing Facilities
Thanks to the generous financial support of the Friends Of Exeter Northcott, we have a new enhanced hearing system that improves the experience for hearing-impaired theatregoers by transmitting enhanced audio to visitor's hearing aids, or specially provided headphones. Equipment for both must be collected from the stewards' counter prior to the show.
Guide / Hearing Dogs are always welcome
If you wish to take your dog into the performance, please let us know when booking your ticket so that we can arrange an adjacent seat. Alternatively, dogs can be cared for by a member of staff.
Sign Language Interpreted Performances
Exeter Northcott aims to provide at least two signed performances per programmed season. During these performances a British Sign Language Interpreter will be positioned on the stage. Specific seats with a clear view of the signer are reserved in the main house auditorium and should be requested when booking.
Audio Described Performances
Exeter Northcott aims to provide at least two audio described performances per programmed season. The audio described performances provide the audience with a description of the set, the characters, the costume, the scene and the lighting throughout the performance, interspersing with the actors dialogue. The information is relayed through a headset that will be given to you on arrival at the theatre. The headsets must be booked when booking your tickets (at no extra cost) and collected from the Box Office before the performance.
If you have any queries about access and facilities for people with disabilities please contact the Box Office on 01392 493493.
