4.00I loved the video at the beginning and hearing the history. I do wish there was more time to look at the pictures on the wall. It felt hurried as the tour kept moving as I tried to see things.

5.00My husband and I went to do the backstage tour today, unfortunately, I was taken very ill and had to leave. They were so kind and TripAdvisor also was in touch with them to see if we could get a rain check for the next day. They happily accommodated us and we’re so kind about it. I highly recommend doing this tour. We are going to do the full tour tomorrow so I will report back but the little bit that we were able to see today was absolutely outstanding and the team there it was amazing!
