Enjoyable time but for a brand new theatre access should be better

The King's Head is a fringe theatre in Islington, North London, which host a vast and varied theatre programme. Originally the theatre was housed in a pub, from which it takes its name. However, in early 2024 it opened after it relocated close by, following an extensive programme of building works. I really enjoyed my visit and the show Houdini's Greatest Escape was lots of fun. The theatre in many ways ticks many accessibility boxes it has step free access, wheelchair spaces in the auditorium, accessible toilets. However, given that it is a brand new theatre I feel extremely disappointed that more thought was not given to access.
