The auditorium has seven wheelchair spaces. Wheelchairs are available on request from the central security desk near the box office. At show times, a receptionist is specially assigned to help disabled people get around. However, it will not be possible to remain seated in this area during the show.
For assistance in accessing your seats via the secondary entrance, simply present yourself at the entrance to the auditoriums via the exhibition hall.
