The venue can also accommodate cabaret seating for up to 50 patrons (around 10 round tables), with or without the seating bank.
The theatre has a lighting grid spanning the entire floor area further enhancing the flexibility of the facility. There is an extensive stock of lighting and sound equipment available to hirers of the space.
