Good theatre, nice and cool inside. The seating is well arranged, we saw Totally Tine, which was an excellent show.

been to this establishment four times never been disappointed by the entertainment, the service from the staff. the cleanliness and when we have eaten there the quality and value for money of the food. Being opposite the rebuilt pier provides another reason to visit Hastings.

No problem with the theatre itself. Right on the sea front opposite the pier with friendly and helpful staff. Seating is really good and doesn't matter where you sit you get a good view. The 'but..' part of my comments is the restaurant/café unfortunately. We were told by one of the staff on the phone, that the restaurant only opened that week & the food was good.When we arrived, the young barman didn't know what White Zinfandel was & faffed about looking for Prosecco. In the end he said to go to the restaurant/café end & see what they had. Hmmm. At the restaurant end they had one small 20 cl bottle of Prosecco left and just before the girl opened it, the guy on the till said 'that's £8 please'. Really!!! Really!! Needless to say, I didn't buy it. My husband had a hunters chicken burger which left a lot to be desired. Bun, bacon & stuffings were hot, the chicken was cold. Chips were thin fries which got cold quickly too. He left most of it as it was the worst burger he'd ever had. I would have returned the meal but we'd waited a long while for the food and had to go into the concert. Wouldn't recommend anyone to eat there but the theatre is really nice.

Eight of us went to see Harry Redknapp who was absolutely brilliant. We had tickets in the circle quite near the back but being a fairly small theatre had a good view. Before the show we had a meal in the newly refurbished cafe. The food was very good and freshly cooked. As we were in the restaurant early with only one other couple there we were surprised at the amount of time it took for the food to arrive. To be fair it turned out to be very busy and some people had pre ordered their food. In future we will do the same. I would highly recommend this theatre and the cafe for a light meal. Thank you White Rock for a very entertaining evening.

My wife/carer and I just happend to look on the listings for this evening and saw a night of comedy. I love the theatre but because of my disability in can get quite expensive. This theatre offers a companion/carers ticket and between Karen and Tracey-Ann, two of the finest box office staff in the world. They were on hand to get me sorted. I thank you dearly.

Rang the White Rock at a last minute attempt to get tickets for Ricky Gervais hoping there would be some cancellations - there were! I was so lucky and got 2 tickets on the day. Very helpful staff. Thank you. My only gripe is the new seating downstairs - the raised seats should never have come out (in my opinion). We're not all 6'2"!

Saw Ricky Gervais last night and it was excellent. However, the evening was spoilt by the cramped seats. We were in the circle and there was no leg room whatsoever. I have problems with my knees and ended up in a lot of pain. Several people around us commented on this too. Obviously downstairs you can move your feet under the seat in front but that’s not an option in the circle. I wish the Battle of Hastings had been in 804, so there would have been fewer seats than trying to fit 1066 in! The discomfort certainly detracted from the enjoyment of the evening, and made it hard to appreciate what was being said.

Went to see the 20th anniversary tour of Beyond The Barricades and was very pleased with such an excellent show. Three musicians at the rear of the stage and just four singers, two men and two ladies, all experienced West End performers. I would highly recommend seeing this show. If you love musicals you will not be disappointed.The only thing missing is the lack of food for pre show dining, I hope they restore this facility for the general public and not just pre booked groups !!

My wife bought tickets for my birthday. I though Tues night was an odd night for such a big name band and was not in the mood to go by was so glad I did. The Music was excellent and the venue is good, easy access to the bar - fantastic night

As a massive fan of UB40 I was delighted they chose to visit my hometown of Hastings on their 40th anniversary tour. The White Rock Theatre is a great venue, iv'e seen a number of acts there and always enjoy the ambience and atmosphere.

My wife and I went to see this show as we both liked the music of the Bee Gees, the actual show was brilliant but the seating I found to be very poor, I am tall but most other theatres we have visited I have felt very comfortable.

An outstanding night this evening watching the international piano concerto. Circle seats had a great view.

New downstairs configuration without tiered seating will take some getting used to...especially the lack of carpet.

Great venue - really good band.
Great to be allowed to stand and boogie in the theatre, and good that you can take drinks into the auditorium

Long live live music!

Had a fabulously enjoyable show with Jim in Feb 2019.

He was completely outrageous and thoroughly funny. Such a delight in the crazy PC world we live in.

We were in the circle and visibility was excellent. The seats aren’t the biggest in the world but they are ok.

Only grumble is the circle bar.

TOTALLY INADEQUATE STAFFING AND CRAZY QUEUES TO WAIT FOR A DRINK.

And then at the interval they put an extra barman on, but there was still only a single till, so the delays were just as bad.

It was exactly like this the last visit 12 months ago, why don’t the management realise that they are ACTIVELY DISCOURAGING PEOPLE FROM SPENDING THEIR MONEYS WITH WHITE ROCK??

But overall, we had a fab night.

Thank you Jim.👍👍
