We thoroughly enjoyed A Night to Remember at the Hippodrome. It was an excellent song-and-dance show, engaging the audience throughout. We recommend it highly and look forward to next year's performance.

Attended matinee performance of 40 years of the Rattonians. Superb show, sound was good, lovely views. It was a hot day so needed to fan myself occasionally but it wasn't too hot considering it was full. Nice atmosphere and being compact it took less than a minute to get out, cross the road to the bus stop.

What a wonderful evening celebration to see the fabulous renovations to this beautiful theatre.
The decorations are all tastefully done, new carpet and re-upholstered seats, really has made this old venue come alive again!
We throughly enjoyed this free event. The best bits of previous years preformed by a very entertaining team.
The hard work put in by this dedicated team, to renovate this interior, is inspiring. A huge thank you to all involved. Looking forward to visiting again soon. Let's all get involved to get the roof done next.

The burlesque experience of 26.5.24 was truly wondrous in a wonderful environment The usherettes are lovely and the ladies within the performance were absolutely inspirational ALL beautiful and so modest.I think burlesque is an art form ,the ladies reinforced my belief.WELL done everyone.

Love this little gem of a theatre. Great acts feel like it's hidden as it's not near the other theatres. It feels like it needs updating, but that's also the part of why it's beautiful .
It's a pain to park as there is no car park as its the top of Seaside Road.
