What a gem!! Found out about the Hue & Cry concert, which took place last evening, only a few days ago and decided that the venue wasn't too far to attend. Parking in the closest car parks was challenging - partly due to the commercial vehicles which I assume involved employees staying at the nearby hotel - but we found a spot. The venue itself is quaint but in no way old-fashioned or tired. Spotlessly clean and plenty of staff on hand to help. The auditorium has a perfect layout for smaller, intimate events and I guess it seats around 200 people. The show was brilliant and certainly an ideal venue for acts that don't fill sports grounds or arenas! Loos were clean and the bar area comfortable without stinging you with high prices. You really felt that the owners wanted you to feel right at home and it worked. We're now watching for future opportunities to visit the Lamproom again!
What an absolute gem of a theatre. Small and intimate with comfortable seats and great sound. Friendly staff and parking just outside, free after 5pm. Went to see Whole Lotta Shakin’ and had a wonderful evening. Definitely recommend and will return.
A quaint place with fantastic staff. Helpful, friendly and go out of there way to help. Affordable prices for great shows. We as a family love their pantomimes which are always funny with local barnsley banter, brilliant 👏. What i love the most is simple and great prices of mementos for the kids. No over sell of products or over priced drinks. Love it.
