Your visit

On arrival, please check your tickets for your seat number(s) and follow signage to the entry point.
Please don’t bring any large bags to the theatre. There is no cloakroom. You must keep belongings with you at all times.

Refunds, returns and exchanges

The Exchange regrets that it is unable to refund tickets unless the performance is postponed or cancelled. Tickets may be exchanged for another performance of the same production (subject to availability), on condition that your exchange can be processed at least 48 hours before the performance (7 days for group bookings).
In the event that The Exchange or the relevant Third Party is unable to perform on the date(s) agreed because the performance in question is no longer available or viable, or is abandoned when less than half the performance has taken place, The Exchange will refund to you the face value of the tickets purchased (excluding any delivery charges or ancillary expenditure incurred). Where a performance has been cancelled or abandoned when more than half of the performance has taken place The Exchange may, at its discretion (and provided any relevant Third Party agrees), refund to you the face value of the tickets purchased (excluding any delivery charges or ancillary expenditure incurred).

In the event that The Exchange is unable to perform or deliver a session or event on the date(s) agreed because an event is no longer available or must be abandoned, The Exchange will endeavour to reschedule the affected session(s), we will inform you of this as soon as possible. If you are unable to make the rescheduled date, or should rescheduling not be possible, we will issue a full refund for the event / session (excluding any delivery charges or ancillary expenditure incurred). For these purposes an event or session shall not be treated as abandoned if it is discontinued after one half of the event or session has been completed.
Refunds will only be paid to the person who purchased the tickets, and to the payment method originally used. We will endeavour to contact you as soon as possible using the details provided at the time of booking, or that we hold for you on our database. It is your responsibility to update us of any changes in contact details.
As the Management reserves the right to make any alterations to the advertised programme which may be rendered necessary by unavoidable cause, no refunds will be given in the event that a named performer is unable to appear.

Resales

If the production is sold out, we can accept tickets for resale. However, we do not guarantee that tickets can be sold and The Exchange reserves the right to sell other seats before resales.

Force Majeure

We will not be liable for any failure to perform, due to Events outside of our reasonable control (Force Majeure). Such events include any act, Event, omission or accident beyond our reasonable control and includes such things as: terrorist attack, fire, flood or natural disaster, epidemics, impossibility of the use of means of public or private transport, or public or private telecommunications networks or the threat of any of these things. If we have to cancel a performance or abandon it part way through due to such events, our obligations to you are deemed to be suspended for the period that the Force Majeure Event continues.

We will use our reasonable endeavours to bring the Force Majeure Event to a close or to find a solution by which our obligations may be performed despite the Force Majeure Event.
