We were a small group of 4 on a friends night out. Peter Panties met and exceeded our expectations. Laugh a minute, crude and a bit saucy and excellent actors running the show.

The team of 3 leading the show were excellent, truly hilarious and comedians!

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 £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.
