my daughter and my husband are both access card holders for different reasons and they get different options at the same theatre for the same show because their needs are different (husband in a wheelchair, daughter ASD and associated sensory issues). Husband gets a carer most places (except some where they dont offer a free carer but all tickets are at a significantly reduced rate) but nearly always gets cheap tickets too because wheelchair seats are often in more expelnsive parts of the theatre. Daughter has a carer need on her card but she doesn't need specific seats so will get a free carer but not always reduced tickets. For example I went with husband to see Cabaret and the wheelchair seats are the fancy table ones that cost upwards of £250 each - they charge the rate of the cheapest ticket in the house (£30) - so for three of us it was £60 (2x £30 with free carer) a flipping bargain!!!!! Went with daughter to see it and we had to pay full price for her ticket but I went free as her carer so not so cheap.
This week I am going with daughter to see Mamma Mia and she gets a very discounted ticket and I am free so have paid £30 for her to sit a few rows back in the stalls with me as a free carer.
each card, venue and need brings forth different prices.
