We went to see the brilliantly funny and talented Ceri Dupree.
Beautiful little theatre with comfortable seats and the staff very welcoming. Highlight of a bit of a lacklustre weekend. We had a great night Thankyou

Lovely little theatre, very personal and great views of the performance. Staff polite and friendly, only issue really is the price of drinks but I suppose that's to be expected in this sort of venue.

I visited the Hippodrome yesterday for a behind the scenes tour. The tour lasts 90 minutes and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I have visited the theatre a number of times to see shows (which I have enjoyed) and thought it would be interesting to see parts of the theatre you don't see normally. The tour starts off with a talk on how the theatre came to exist and we were then taken around the theatre. The tour is reasonably priced at Β£5, and being in a small group it felt a privilege to be shown around when it was empty. I learnt more about Eastbourne's history from the very knowledgable guide and afterwards bought myself a book on the history of the theatre in the foyer. In my opinion the Royal Hippodrome is the most interesting theatre in Eastbourne as it has so much character and history. A great theatre.

I think this would be described as 'cute'. Bar was small with a dozen chairs lined up against the wall, the seat wasn't particularly comfotable but that might just be mr. Good auditorium and the sound system was clear. The people working there are lovely and friendly. It just still comes up short against other theatres.
