Princess Theatre

Physical Access

• There are several theatre entrances located on Spring Street. Glass doors are kept open prior to and during performances. There is one step up into each doorway.

Accessible Entrance

• A ramp is positioned at the door two hours before performance time.

Foyer

• The foyer is a tiled area. All counters in the foyer area are high. There is a slight rise into the auditorium before the tiled surface gives way to carpet. The box office is located in the foyer.

Auditorium

• There are no steps from the foyer into the Stalls area of the auditorium. Seating has no central aisles. Seats fold down and forward leaving more room between rows when seats are unoccupied; some people however, may need to brace themselves against the armrest. From the last four or five rows (T-W), view of the stage, above actor’s head height, is affected by the Dress Circle overhang.
• Steps up to the Dress Circle are marble, and the railing is high and thick. There are numerous steps with railing up to the Grand Circle. Keep in mind that the Grand Circle is a long way up and that seating rows are steeply tiered. There are no rails down the internal aisles and the aisles’ steps are irregular. The side aisles have rails.

Toilets

• There are eight steps, with rails, down to the female toilets in the street level Stalls foyer. Male toilets at this level have no steps. There are no steps leading to the male toilets in the Dress Circle Foyer. Female toilets on this level have two steps with no handrail. To access the Grand Circle toilets, it is necessary to go down a flight of steps and then a further five steps, all with rails.

Accessible Toilets
There is a unisex accessible toilet located between the Male and Female toilets at the Little Bourke Street end of the lower foyer. There is a clearly visible sign.
