His lengthy and varied musical resumé includes playing drums in The Pretenders, an ongoing two-decades-plus run as the mastermind of visionary ambient/electronica act Moodswings, and an expansive array of production and soundtrack projects.

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 experiences, though everyone's experience may vary.
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.
