A local dramatic society working so hard to keep this theatre as a going concern. beautiful building and cast very enthusiastic. Loved watching the youngsters - but all were dedicated. However, the tickets were over-priced and didn't warrant £16.p.p.!

I have recently attended two shows at the Royal Hippodrome in Eastbourne and although not reviewing those shows would say that if you can find something in their programme( which is getting more extensive) which you think you might enjoy, it's worth the visit to appreciate this delightful old theatre. Found the staff helpful, seating comfortable and atmosphere wonderful. Tickets reasonable priced for the events I attendedd. Summer show coming up worth an evening out.

Saw The Drifters at the Royal Hippodrome Theatre on Saturday 21 June. The staff at the theatre are very welcoming and to see a band like the Drifters there was a truly amazing experience. They were fantastic. More like this please as me and my friend can't wait to visit there again

We had a fantastic night at the Royal Hippodrome. The Drifters were amazing. Professional, charismatic with huge stage presence and wonderful music. It was great to see members of security bopping away to the songs!

Have been to several concerts now at this lovely and lovingly renovated old theatre. Great acoustics, comfy seats, wonderfully welcoming atmosphere - I believe front-of-house people are all volunteers - a real gem. The place feels full of love!

I took part in a concert at this beautiful restored theatre, it is a magnificent setting with good acoustics, my guests in the audience were very comfortable and could hear and see the show perfectly.

The Royal Hippodrome Theatre in Eastbourne is one of the few venues that offers a top rate experience from BOTH sides of the curtain! I have been a visitor to this theatre, and found it to be great , both in the standard of productions there, and the whole theatre going experience.
Last night I directed over 100 members of VOICES choir on stage at the Royal Hippodrome, and it could not have been made easier for us to just get on and perform. Staff were incredibly helpful and polite, and the stage crew experienced and willing to go the extra mile to make the evening the huge success it was. In short, whether you are a theatre-goer or looking to put on a play/musical/recital etc, I recommend the Hippo without reserve......in fact, I actively encourage everyone to use the theatre, which will help with the ongoing restoration of this historic and much loved site.

Thoroughly enjoyed this romp of a play! It's the first play I have been to that involved the audience in the plot. It was great fun!
This play, being a pilot, was only on for the one night.......but I would go to see it again tomorrow. I got the chance to see new, up and coming actors play their debut performance on a theatre stage, along with more seasoned actors. The whole experience was really great, and I hope they do more of the same. I will certainly book MY ticket!
VERY WELL DONE!

I was fortunate to be part of a 100 strong choir Voices that performed at the Royal Hippodrome recently. It was a privilege to tread the boards of this beautiful old theatre where so many famous and great names from the past have appeared. The acoustics are excellent and the seating for the audience comfortable. Most of all this historic theatre is a focal point for theatrical entertainment in a seaside town. Like many small theatres all over the country it struggles to survive but thanks to its dedicated team of volunteers who tirelessly work towards ingenious ways to continue the restoration work and keep it afloat, hopefully it's future looks optimistic. By visiting and seeing a show, you will help secure the future of this beautiful old theatre.
