Niamh Ní Hoireabhaird, 26, bought tickets to the Great Gatsby Immersive LDN show for her boyfriend as an anniversary gift.

“My boyfriend went inside to ask someone where there was wheelchair entry and at that point, two staff members came out and told me there was no way in. She said: "When I tweeted it out, a guy I follow who lives in London, asked how the production company had got the permit to conduct such an event at a place which was so inaccessible, the year is 2023, there should be more accessibility.
