I haven't visited for a while, but it is a beautiful little theatre. The seating can be changed so it can be in the round or on 3 sides or just from the front. You are close to the performers so it feels quite intimate. There is a bar and restaurant. It is being renovated at the moment. Can't wait to see new look and to just enjoy another production.

Went to see Summer Holiday last night at the Octagon. Interesting concept of having the play in different locations around the town. Wasn’t sure how that was going to work but have to admit it was brilliant! From the initial location of bus station where we were immediately encouraged to join in the singing, to the ride on the decorated buses, the town hall and finally to the theatre - amazing. The energy, enthusiasm, musicality and professionalism of all the cast is to be applauded as well as the team of organisers who ferried us from place to place without feeling like there was a break from the experience. Be prepared for lots of audience participation. Highly recommend!

Excellent evening. Watched production of Summer Holiday Musical. Started at the Bus Station and then went by bus to the Theatre via the Town Square for the rest of the show. Well organised and very well performed.

Wonderful to keep pantomimes and entertainment fit for the family. Hexagon is simalire to the crucible both used for snooker.
Now musicals, plays , ballet and comedy fill the stage now. Banked seating all round with a central stage.

In the summer I went to see the last production "Summer Holiday" at the Octagon for a while. We began at the bus station, caught the busses and were transferred to Victoria Square for the next scenes and finally we walked into the Octagon. Very imaginative and in keeping with the show. The performance was top quality and we left feeling very festive and happy. The Octagon has now closed for a total revamp and I look forward to visiting again when it reopens

Went to see "And did those feet" at the Stadium of Bolton by the cast of the Octagon - absolutely fantastic !!
A tough venue to play (while the Octagon is being refurbished) but they did a great job - Poignant just now as a central theme is the aftermath of the first world war and how the town football team's success in 1923 (the white horse final) helped heal some of the wounds from the family's that were left and look to the future .. Great job !!!!!!!! - Very well done !

And did those feet..... Have seen play before some years ago but enjoyed revisiting it. Everyone well cast in their roles. But particularly liked Martin Barass..... shouldn’t single one out should i? As they were all brilliant.

Worse part for me was the seating, i was wriggling after 2hrs even though i took my own cushion. I know its needs must during renovations so...

YOU MUST SEE THIS PRODUCTION - very emotive and managed to make me weep a few times which must have been because the actors brought the characters alive. Well done David Thacker in direction too.
