What you would expect from a lovely old theatre.
It was a shame that the microphones weren't working well on the night of the show.

Just back from holiday and I had to write a review. The show Musicality was fantastic it had everything you want in a show. Dancing, singing comedy and a bit of mystery too. The host Grant Martins was brilliant as well as the rest of the cast. I am so pleased that we found this gem. Highly recommend for everyone to see this show. It is entertainment at it's best.

I attended the annual British Music Hall Society event 'Day by the Sea', a full day of variety entertainment including music hall songs, comedy sketches, impressionists, magic and even an audience singalong. Top of the bill was the indubitable Roy Hudd ably assisted at times by the Clown Prince of Wales, Wyn Calvin and included that old favourite Mickie Driver in full WW1 livery leading us in some British Tommy songs.
Some of the performers were lesser known but no less able including Brandyn Shaw performing as Al Bowlly, truly mesmerising.
The only down side of the day was the comfort of the seats that after some 9 plus hours left me less than comfortable.
However, that aside this beautiful old building transported me back to the golden times of music hall and variety.
Wonderful building, wonderful show.....can't wait until next year!!!

I traveled from USA to see Blake's Christmas Classic Concert on December 17, 2015 and to meet the wonderful volunteers who staff the theatre. It was an unforgettable evening. It was my 2nd Blake concert and we had such fun. The theatre is a beautiful building, steeped in history (opened in 1883). Blake is there June 18, 2016 with new Songs of Stage and Screen Tour. I have plans to go back soon to see my friends of the theatre and take the tour to discover all that history. Thank you for making my visit memorable.

Have been a couple of times and it is an old style theatre.
The first time was for the ghost walk, loved it great fun pitch black so quite tricky in parts as this is a very old and quirky venue and floors can be uneven. Totally recommended.
Second visit was for the "Grumpy old women" tour brilliant evening seats are comfortable and well spaced.
Will definitely go again

The hotel was very clean and tidy. Situated opposite the pier so good location. Everyone was very polite and helpful. Very good budget hotel. We definately would stay here again. Breakfast was nice. Also close to town centre.

Lovely views from our room right in the heart of Eastbourne . We enjoyed the welcome drinks and the breakfast. Very helpful staff. The beds could have been a bit more comfortable but overall a very enjoyable place to stay.
