We have visited the hippodrome several times. It is a blast from the past. The decor is dated - which is actually quite charming! However the seats are so close together that you find yourself knocking knees with the person next to you ! This is fine when it is a Chas & Dave Evening which was great as the 'lads' were in fine form and everyone in the audience joined in. It felt that as though we were all in an old time music hall. On the down side the loos could do with an uplift/revamp to make the best of the area ! The staff are always friendly and obliging. We have now booked to see the Kinks and are looking forward to it.

A lovely old theatre. A great atmosphere with friendly staff. Treasure Island by Wicked Productions was a joy. Such fun in a wonderful little theatre. More shows here please.

Funny, witty fabulous family show, the old theatre has tons of interesting history, just like the old girl she is it is a little dated and tatty around the edges but that adds to her charm , if we do not keep going to these productions and support the eastbourne heritage , it will be pulled down or turned into flats which would be a crime, so the theatre isn't the most up to date but don't let that pit you off just sit back and watch some theatre and let the future generations enjoy the entertainment

What's not to like? Cosy, intimate, friendly, informal....it was our first visit and booked the dress circle out of habit. However, having entered through the bar, I quickly regretted my decision. The bar entrance brings you straight into the stalls, and, as each row is gradually raised, I imagine they're the seats to be in. Upstairs, originally three rows back we were advised by a lovely member of staff to move further back. How right she was! The closer you sit to the front, the less you can see. Sitting at the back, the children and I could see the whole stage. We did feel slightly remote and would have happily returned for another show sitting in the stalls. Only sharing the balcony with other family did have it's benefits - no queues for the loos! The show itself was incredible, topped by meeting one of the stars as we were leaving. Having learned the history of the theatre from afore-mentioned member of staff - saved from demolition, becoming a listed building then a new life as a community theatre using profits to gradually restore it, I am more inclined than ever to return and support it. How a theatre SHOULD be :)
