Overview
One of Covent Garden’s smallest venues, the Fortune Theatre instils a sense of both atmosphere and intimacy. Providing guests with some of the best seats in theatre, the stage brings the West End up close. Built in 1924, the Fortune has seen many stars tread the boards, from Dame Judi Dench to Alan Bennett and beyond! For 33 years, the Fortune Theatre was home to the enigmatic and brilliant production of The Woman in Black, and is now showing the critically acclaimed Operation Mincemeat. Tickets are available to book from our online box office.

Access guidance
- Many of our venues have limited space, and seating or access to the auditorium may not always be available straight away. If you have difficulty standing or queuing, please let a member of the team know when you arrive and they’ll do their best to support you.
- There is step-free access into the foyer. There are 21 steps down to the stalls. 7 steps up to the Dress Circle and 40 steps up to the Upper Circle. All stairwells have handrails. There are two wheelchair spaces in row F of the Dress Circle. Wheelchair spaces can be accessed via platform lift. The lift is located at the Dress Circle side entrance on Crown Court and provides direct access to the theatre. This lift is equipped with a small fold-down seat, designed for patrons who may have difficulty using stairs and is available for patrons who wish to transfer to a seat but cannot manage the 7 steps up to the dress circle. The platform lift is unsuitable for mobility scooters or larger electric wheelchairs and has strict dimension and weight criteria to be able to operate, so please ensure the wheelchair is no larger than the measurements below. -Length of wheelchair: 93cm (including all back supports, headrests, armrests, and any other items extending beyond the main footprint of the wheelchair) -Width of wheelchair: 74cm -Weight of wheelchair: 170kg

For the welfare of the animal, other customers and to maintain safe venue evacuation routes, dogs are only allowed within our designated seating areas. For the safety and wellbeing of your animal, depending on the performance, it may not be reasonable to permit their entry into our venues, however we will discuss requests on a case-by-case basis.
