"The safety of our customers, staff and the public is our main concern. This means all main house activity has been suspended until it can be resolved.
"Events are being rescheduled or moved to alternative venues, inclusive of the Studio Hub/Screen 2 and the Northumberland Hall.
“We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause. The café remains open and we look forward to welcoming you to those events that are still taking place.
"We will contact bookers directly regarding rescheduling but if you are uncertain please drop in or call the Box Office on 01660 660550.”
