Reviewed By PhilipandSheena - Chester-le-Street, United Kingdom

It's back open with Covid Secure one way systems around the building and seating blocked off into socially distanced bubbles. That's not a sentence anyone would understand six months ago, and probably won't in five years time..... But it was great to see the place back in action. The show was fantastic and the app to order drinks to your seat was great. Overall a great night out, it was super to see the place open again.
