Really disappointed with the lack of preparation for the performance during a heatwave. We went to Saturday Matinee Matilda performance. Matilda was great, but I spent most of the performance wishing it to end, as I was so uncomfortable. We were in the ‘cheap seats’; for clarity, they were not cheap. So uncomfortable. The seats are an unpadded velvet bench. The heat was unbearable. A woman next to me collapsed just before the interval. Nothing was done to improve the conditions. We went to get ice creams at the interval to try and cool down; sold out! It has been very hot all week. Today was much cooler but you couldn’t tell in the theatre. I’m totally astounded that the experience for my family cost 100s of pounds and was a treat for my birthday. It was completely awful. I’m so disappointed by the whole thing. How can you charge so much and deliver such a terrible experience for your customers?
