HEARING DOGS
Assistance
dogs
are
welcome
in
all
spaces
of
the
Brookside
Theatre.
Please
let
us
know
when
booking
so
that
we
can
arrange
an
aisle
seat
for
you
and
tell
you
about
any
loud
noises
or
special
effects
that
might
affect
your
dog’s
comfort.
Alternatively,
you
can
leave
your dog in the care of our hospitality team.
In
the
case
of
an
emergency,
if
it
is
safe
to
do
so,
we
will
try
to
reunite
a
dog
with
its
owner
prior
to
evacuating
the
building.
If
this
is
not
possible,
volunteers
will
bring
your dog to the appropriate assembly point.
