Review of The Bristol Hippodrome

This is a point against the establishment's rules....

This is a point against the establishment's rules.

Anyone under 16 cannot enter alone. This is very unfair for younger people who would like to go to the theatre. Younger people should be encouraged to attend. The reason my 15 year old cannot attend is on 'grounds of health and safety'. How pathetic an excuse.

Perhaps I should encourage my children to wander the streets. Health and safety... come on! Really? Under 11, or possibly 13 years, old I might understand.

Dear Hippodrome, change your silly rules and encourage, sorry I should say allow, younger people to visit the hippodrome. Your rules are ridiculous and health and safety as an excuse is pathetic at best.
