Loved the show! Great seats and a good atmosphere. Ordered our drinks for the interval online a few more real options would be amazing.

Really enjoyed Habibti Driver, and the draught beer and Carrs pasties were spot on. Five stars.

We were season ticket holders, love it but this new season you have to book dates in advance does not fit our life style shane.
We love the Octogan, " The book Thief" was excellent, an emotional experience I cried at the end.

First trip back to the Octagon since it's refurb and first impressions were very good. Although the road outside is closed for repaving for pedestrianisation, there was a volunteer marshalling you round the back. We went to the first floor bar for pre theatre drinks and then ordered the interval drinks separately.
After the first half of the performance I found that our drinks weren't on the interval drinks table, so had to queue with everyone else. We were number 11 of 11, so it's not like there were many drinks to mess up. When I got to the bar the server apologised and poured our drinks but, without asking, poured my bottle into the glass. He appeared to be in a hurry and some of the beer was left in the bottle.
After the show, my partner needed to go to the toilet but when we discovered that the downstairs ladies was closed and only the accessible toilet was available, she wasn't allowed back upstairs to the toilet up there.
All in all, a good visit, let down by these two incidents. The theatre itself is lovely and it won't stop us going back.

What is there not to love about a theatre my town. Been coming here over 20 years. Love the small round seating area. The stage close. Makes the whole experience personal and intimate. Here's to another 50 years!
