Review of Barbican Arts, Events & Exhibi...

PROS:

PROS:

- Lovely museum displays and galleries.
- Theatre, most recently saw "Jesus Christ Superstar" and was worth it. The cinema also looks cool and there are gigs as well.
- Cute gift shop with a wide variety of items on sale.
- Staff for the most part helpful.

CONS:
- The place is a maze. Getting out was incredibly difficult. I get that it's a brutalist, Grade II building but exits and signs are not clear at all, unless you are familiar with the place.
- More benches and seating areas outside would be nice.
- Cumbersome to collect theatre tickets, misleading information on where to collect them. The main desk said to go elsewhere, only for it not being the case. More communication from staff in this respect would be ideal in the future.
- Toilets could be improved. No paper towels, not all dispensers had soap and not all hand dryers worked.
