Great time at the luther uk concert. As usual ignorant and drunk me, me ,me people who wanted to talk all the way through. Nice little theatre they were collecting for refurbishment? They must make a fair bit with concerts at £30 a go.

I have just finished a shift as Duty Manager for the Viva Variety show.
As the guests were leaving they all commented on how good the show is and one lady in particular called to to one side. She explained that she has been on many cruise ships and the entertainment she experienced at our theatre was far superior to anything she had seen on the cruises. She said the acts were first class and the 4 men in particular should be on Britain’s got Talent. She was amazed that all the “stars” of the show are working people who have day jobs and do this show every Wednesday.
Great to receive amazing feedback. She asked me to post this as she wasn’t sure about the internet or trip advisor and I was happy to oblige.

This lovely theatre has been restored and appears to be run by some very devoted and enthusiastic people. We saw their 2019 summer show, "Viva Variety" which we enjoyed very much. The multi-talented cast were brilliant & we had a marvelous evening. I would recommend this theatre and its productions to anyone wanting first class entertainment in superb & evocative surroundings.

Lovely renovated theatre with excellent views from the circle, quite small so you don't feel lost in a huge venue.

Dates back to 1883 this lovely old building has just had a make over and been brought back to its former glory. This year there have been so many excellent productions. Back stage tours are interesting and informative

Came here to watch the Pink Floyd live show which was excellent. A good old fashioned theatre which has plenty of character. Its very small, clean, comfy seats and the staff are very friendly who were all volunteers. I like this theatre better than the newly refurbished Congress Theatre.
I say this theatre is similar to Theatre Royal, Brighton and hope to come here again in the future.
