Just returned from a fun filled couple of hours watching Madagascar. It was fantastic. From start to finish it had you smiling and at the end, on your feet dancing. Definitely recommend.

We had a fabulous afternoon seeing Madagascar. Great performers, especially when they mingle with the audience as it brings it all to life.
4 year old was beside himself with happiness ! And 7 year old girl smiling all through it.
Thankyou all !

My 5 year old loved everything about this show, especially meeting all of the characters for photo's in the interval? The Hippodrome is a lovely child friendly theatre with very welcoming people working throughout.

Our first ever visit to this theatre and what a show! very good, the stars of the show came out to meet and greet the audience, so much fun. The staff were helpful and polite. We will be visiting again.

First time to this theatre today and on first impressions it looks pretty grotty from the outside but inside it's a treat. Lovely small theatre with everything you need. Clean and comfortable with lots of booster seats available to everyone with little ones.
Show was great and it was particularly nice that the characters came out in the interval for photographs with the children.
Really lovely and helpful staff. We will look at what's on to come again.

My four year old thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Madagascar, she was singing and dancing along. Refreshments were reasonably priced, £1 drink and £2 ice cream. Even the programme wasn't expensive. Great view from our seat and the ticket wasn't expensive. Definately going back!

Eastbourne traditional theatre venue. Workshop production of a David Walliams children's book about the first Hippo on the moon. The animal characters were hand operated and their speech provided by the workshop crew. The very entertaining storyline was well presented throughout with moments of interaction with the audience.
Whilst the venue is quite old t wasn't shabby & the staff (mostly voluntary I think) were very friendly & helpful,
We shall be returning for other productions. Price are comparable with cinema tickets, with options for family groups.

Run by volunteers who seem to love what they do, this theatre is very welcoming and a joy to visit. a volunteer informed me the theatre is 134 years old now, it is beautiful. Parking can be a challenge, like most things in Eastbourne the multi storey carparks close ridiculously early, most busses disappear before 8pm.

We were booked in the front row so that we could see but unfortunately there was a speaker right in front of us which restricted our view of the stage

Great place to come and see a show a lovely intimate venue. Yes it needdoes updating but this is a non for profit organisation mainly ran by volunteers. Puts on great shows for all ages.

The Royal Hippodrome Theater is super for hosting shows for children and adults and it is nice to find a theatre that regularly hosts shows for children. Yesterday we saw Brainiac which was brilliant. My son has loved all of the shows they've put on there. The theatre doesnt look anything from the outside but on the inside it is beautiful. The staff are friendly too! I think the theatre is definitely an asset to the town of Eastbourne and credit should be given to them for hosting shows for out future generation of theatre goers!

Brainiacs was an amazing show. It entertained both adults and children. The theatre was a lovely environment to be in. Looking forward to going there again.

Run by mostly volunteers this lovely old theatre is a delight to visit. The don't take credit cards on the bar and this is my only slight complaint as I wanted to buy a bottle of wine but only had a tenner in cash. Comfy seats better leg room than many other theatres.

Lovely theatre but starting to show its age. Could do with an update to heating system & decorating throughout but having said that it's fantastic venue with great sound & great size for cosy atmosphere

Brilliant Show!!! Never did actually see Tina Turner live but this was definitely the next best thing! The theatre is small and atmospheric with it's own ghost! Apparently they do tours of the building...I will go as would love to know more of the history! The staff (volunteers) were amazing and so helpful....10/10!!!!

This was my first visit to the venue and a very enjoyable one it was too. From arrival, the staff were very friendly and helpful. The venue small and quaint but nonetheless comfortable and to top it off, the show was very good.
