I have been twice now to this lovely Theatre. I have seen the seaside special and the Matt Monro show.Both evenings were a very enjoyable one
The Theatre has a good atmosphere to it.There is a bar there and you can even order drinks to your seat.
There are more shows that I plan to see there and would recommend to anyone who fancies a nice evening out.

Lovely old building. There seems to be a lot more local shows than there used to be.
Just watch where you are seated-don´t get behind a pillar.

Went to see Elkie Brooks at the theatre on Sat 19 October. My goodness what a voice. The show was fantastic. The ambience and the acoustics were amazing. Do not be deceived by the exterior appearance of the theatre. I understand that the front of house staff are all volunteers. This made for a really friendly welcome. Have booked in for another show already.

I have been to many Blake concerts but last nights concert at the Royal Hippodrome, Eastbourne was the best, for many reasons. My husband and I arrived to be met and greeted by three very friendly staff members at the entrance wishing both us and all the visitors arriving a lovely evening and that was just the beginning. We were given directions to our seat by a lovely lady with a most engaging smile and then we went to the bar for a little beverage pre show, again the staff were faultless, with smiles and perfect hospitality, nothing was too much trouble.
The acoustics in the theatre were excellent and Blake soon warmed the audience and the interaction was wonderful. The theatre had such a warm intimate feel and was most conducive to a truly spectacular evening. On a little more delicate observation but something which is so important, the toilets were spotless and my husband confirmed the same for this department.
I would like to take this opportunity to wish this little gem of a theatre every success as they have all the critical ingredients to ensure a lovely evening, something which many other theatres could learn from. Now lets hope that the residents of Eastbourne and visitors support the theatre and appreciate what a little gem they have nestled right in the heart of Eastbourne..
Many congratulations to all the wonderful staff.

The Hippodrome is a great, intimate venue for a gig, especially if you get front row seats! The sound is good and the staffare really helpful.
