Thu 23 April 2025 before the 2pm performance
To accompany the audio described performance of Hamilton, we are running a Touch Tour before the show at Mayflower Theatre. The Touch Tour will take place before the matinee performance.
A Touch Tour allows visually impaired patrons and those supporting them, the opportunity to familiarise themselves with elements of set, props and costumes before attending the show.
Please arrive 5-10 minutes before the Touch Tour begins.
To book your place on the Touch Tour please contact our Box Office on 02380 711811.
