Do you recycle? What can I do to help?
At Capital Theatres we encourage customers to help us to continue reducing our environmental impact. Recycling bins are located on each level at the theatre. To help us do this, please:

Sort and recycle any waste using the correct recycling bins which are available throughout all buildings.
Only use a plastic cup if you are taking your drink into the auditorium, otherwise please use glass.
Bring in your own reusable cup for hot/cold drinks, the bar staff will be happy to serve your drink in it.
