Is the show suitable for guests who are prone to seizures or motion sickness?
There are no strobe lights used in the production but there are some fast image and light transitions, so we would advise caution for those who suffer from seizures. Equally, while the vast majority of our patrons have an amazing time with no issues, a small minority who are very susceptible to motion sickness find immersive entertainment slightly uncomfortable, so we would advise caution if you fall into this camp.

Is the show suitable for autistic people?
We have found that autistic people LOVE our shows! Please note the venue is dark and there is surround sound. We advise sitting at the end of a row if you think a quick exit might be required. Our on-site staff will assist if you alert them at check-in.

Venue Information

Plymouth Interior

Market Hall

The Market Hall in Devonport, UK, is a Grade II listed building with a rich history that dates back to the mid-19th century. At the time, the Market Hall was a thriving marketplace and an important hub for the local community. It was used to sell a wide variety of goods, including fresh produce, meat, fish, and textiles.

After falling into disrepair, a major restoration project - undertaken by Real Ideas - saw the building transformed and it is now home to Plymouth’s awe-inspiring 15m immersive dome.

With its rich history, vibrant atmosphere, and commitment to creativity and community, Market Hall is an unmissable destination for everybody.
