A great night out, we'll certainly be returning 👍🏼
Tonight we went to see The circle of life at the theatre. It was our first time and we absolutely loved the whole thing. The youngsters were really good and the older students were as good as in the West End. The last song before the Circle of life had me in pieces, it was so moving. The theatre seating is like going to the cinema, with tiered seats to give everyone a good view of the stage. Loved it all.
This venue is great for viewing. No obstructions, disabled seating at the front (weve been stuck at the back before at some venues) a lovely theatre. Waiting area with few tables and chairs next to the bar. Expensive drinks. Could have more toilets but this is a great place to watch and a excellent place for companies to hire. Backstage has lots of room (compared to older theatres which tend to be a bit cramped) and the staff were all friendly and helpful.
Great local amenaty, good performance venue. Nice box office area. Seating is the main issue, seats are very uncomfortable in the venue and after a hour or so my back was in agony. Also there is a noticeable buzz from some of the loud speakers .
Superb little venue. Ultra friendly staff, good roomy seats with plenty of leg room. Nice little bar for interval drinks which were very reasonably priced. Will be keeping a watch out for future productions.
