Manchester Opera House

Good afternoon Blue roomers.

Can anyone enlighten me about the production access to Manchester Opera House? I believe there is a hoist, but any other info would help.

Thanks

Tom

When I worked there many years ago I remember the get-in was a fair old drop from the street down to stage level. A bit like The Dominion and Birmingham Hipp....I don't remember there being a hoist, but a lift thingy!!

Don't worry about it being a hoist access though, the house staff are blindingly good, and very fast... motor upstage right, abouut 8 feet if I rember right, with a second motor upstage left, though chaps where so quick didn't notice we were only on one motor, though can be a bit tricky with all the building work going on around the load in.
