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.

I went to see this play on Saturday 28th June and really enjoyed it. It was a murder mystery where you had to pick out the murderer after finding the clues in the play. The actors were really good, and I particularly liked the way they involved the audience in the plot. I didn't get the murderer right though, I thought it was Inspector Berkley.
I had been looking forward to seeing this play since my friend bought the tickets, and it didn't let me down. I was laughing all the way through.
I hope they do this play, or something like it again. It was a great night out!

We visited when we stayed in Eastbourne. It is a lovely Theatre
and very comfortable. I guess it is very old as a few of the Theatres in Eastbourne are but there is always something going on

The show was reasonable for the seaside. Don`t think that they would pass the first round on the X factor. However, the Hippodrome Theatre is 131 years old - well worth a visit - would have shined better with sow going back to the 50`s / 70`s. So we had a good £15 worth,
