The performance especially by members of Wingateds Brass Band was very good but considering a very expensive make over the seating does not provide suitable leg room. Ticket prices have also rocketed since the 'improvements'.

Super little theatre with good catering. Some of the rows are accessible from only one side which can be a nuisance.

It was the first time in a very long time I had visited the Octagon, I was not disappointed at all. We had booked to watch Northern Soul, and it was absolutely fantastic!
As we entered the theater the staff were extremely helpful, the bar staff were very accommodating and the when inside the little theatre the staff helped us to our seats and also interacted with the people inside, I was shown how to access the play information of the QR code. I will definitely be going again.

Gorgeous little venue, I've seen a couple shows here and they've really been spot on. Auditorium seats are comfortable and all around gave a good experience. The staff are friendly, and the restaurant is pretty decent too!

We went to see The Memory of Water at the Octagon. It's a lovely little theatre, with interesting and varied shows. The play We saw was very well done and had the audience gripped.
We sat in the middle of the stalls, but I'd say that all seats have a good view. Staff were all friendly and helpful. The bar/cafe is nice and the interval drinks order service was very efficient.
We'll definitely be back for some other shows.

Watched the Memory of Water. Not heard of the play or Shelagh Stephenson but really enjoyed it. Well acted and well written. A lovely surprise.
