Staff at Epsom Playhouse most helpful. Bar is comfortable for pre-drinks before a show and during interval. Staff friendly and service good. Show was excellent, with amazing scenery and singing. Choreography, comedy - jokes had the audience laughing, presentation excellent, very professional company. A company not to be missed when they return again in April 2016.

Good local facility offering variety of shows. We went to see the Surrey Youth Ballet on Sunday...nice performance and afternoon out.
Seats are a little snug and it was bit hot but otherwise a good local facility. Very helpful staff.

We go to the Playhouse regularly and its always a pleasure. Small theatre with an intimate feel. Seats slightly tight on leg room so we always try and get the end of a row.

A friend was performing at the 'Myers Studio' last week, so we made the trip from Essex.
The Epsom Playhouse is a charming venue, in central Epsom, next door to the 'Ashley Centre' with its multi story car park. There are disabled spaces literally twenty yards from the theatre door.
The main auditorium was hosting an 'Abba' tribute, I took a peek inside during the interval and it looked lovely, seating 450 people - a nice size. The 'Myers Studio' seats about eighty and is an intimate venue, if the seats are a tad uncomfortable.
Having said that both venues were crowded, the bar and the toilets seemed to come well with the inevitable interval rush, and a splendid evening was had by all.

Been here a few times. Small theatre so wherever you sit you'll have good views. Staff pleasant & playhouse clean. If you go to the theatre to pay for tickets you will still be subjected to the booking fee unless you pay in cash so might as well book online. Right next to Ashley centre so parking plentiful & loads of places to eat in Epsom

Took the family to see Beauty and the Beast - this year's panto at the Epsom Playhouse. I've not been a regular here - I think I have been to a couple of comedy shows over the last few years - but it is a small, friendly venue that does put on some good shows.
The whole family - 6 yr old daughter, 4 yr old son plus me and my wife - really enjoyed the panto. There was excellent interaction with the audience and some very funny ad-libbing when a sketch involving custard pies saw the dame sliding/falling all over the stage in "her" high heeled boots!
My only gripe with the venue - and it is one that is common of so many theatres - is the ridiculously limited leg room between rows! I'm only 6' 1", but I felt like a giant sitting in my seat and I couldn't find a comfortable position for my legs for the duration!
If you are over about 5' 10", I'd seriously consider reserving a seat in one of the boxes or looking closely at the seating plan to find one that has a little more room!

This was probably the best pantomime I have seen. It had the family in stitches. The dame was brilliant and the costumes she wore were magnificent. An excellent and good value entertainment for all the family. The whole cast deserve praise for wonderful performances. Well done Epsom play house.

Visited in December with family for the panto. Was very good fun with lots of laughs. They have lots of interesting shows throughout the year with affordable ticket prices.

Good local theatre, easy to get to by train or bus and plenty of parking nearby if driving. All the seats have a good view of the stage. My only complaint is that there is not enough legroom so would suggest booking a seat at the end of the row or in one of the boxes. The theatre had a nice far and plenty of eating and drinking venues within walking distance.
