It was a wonderful show (comedy of errors). Would highly recommend you spend a little extra to get a seat and rent a cushion to be most comfortable and out of the rain/weather. Full review by Christopher I

The stage is about 1.5 metres (5ft) above the ground - adults were able to lean against the stage with their elbows resting on it. On our visit the yard was half full and people were able to move around, The cast came down into the yard and interacted with the audience. You could take children out for a few minutes and return during the performance. There were children there on our visit, probably age 10 upwards. However, if the yard were more crowded I would not have thought it would be comfortable for young children.
