Accessibility

All pre-show events will take place in an accessible space. Accessible seats can be booked for each matinee performance.

If you have any questions or would like to discuss your access requirements in more detail, please email ovcommunity@oldvictheatre.com

Staff are very welcoming. A fun, friendly place to come and enjoy some fun activities with no pressure. To get together with others, to socialise, always leave feeling happy and lightened. Very enjoyable and good for me mentally.
