Madonna on the Rocks – Matinee FAQs

We understand that attending an evening performance when you have children can be a challenge. So we have designed a relaxed matinee performance of Madonna on the Rocks for parents, grandparents and carers to be able to attend, where children under 18 months are welcome too.

Please note, the following information is relevant to the 1pm performance of Madonna on the Rocks.

What to expect:
On arrival you will be supported to park your buggy and find an emergency cup of tea, piece of cake or something stronger from our café bar. Come a bit early to meet other sleep-deprived parents, we’re all in it together.

Relaxed Show:
This special daytime show with reduced amplification, dimmed lighting and space to watch the show in relay in if you need to step out of the auditorium. You will be free to move about during the performance, come and go as you need. We sell seating at a reduced capacity so there's plenty of space. There will also be some mats and toys for the children to play and a baby change at the side of the auditorium so you don’t need to miss a thing. Please feel supported to breast, chest or bottle-feed. We can also provide hot water behind the bar if you need to warm bottles.

This is a relaxed space. We expect babies and toddlers to make noise. No apologises needed! Please be respectful and supportive of each other.

Timings:
1pm - 2pm followed by a 20 minute interval.

The show is 1 hour, with an optional 20 minute post show discussion facilitated by Lizzy Humber (Matrescence Festival & Daylight Sessions).

Snacks and drinks available in the café bar during the interval.

Content Warning:
This is an adult centred show, with age guidance 14+

Madonna on the Rocks contains themes of post-natal depression with strong language and adult themes. We have recommended that accompanying children are under 18months. You will know your child best and the age of the accompanying children is at your discretion.

The soundtrack features heavy bass (set to baby-safe levels) and flashing neon lights. For extra peace of mind, ear protectors will be available on a first come first served basis.

Tickets:
Children under 14 can go free (booking required), although the age of accompanying children for this show is under 18 months (please see content warning above).
