I love the Octogan and regularly see performances. The quality of shows is incredible, and easily rivals some of the bigger theatres in the region.
It'd also worth noting that the Octogan has one of the best-stocked bars I've ever seen in a theatre. Wide choices of wine, beer and spirits, including gin!

We attended the Octagon last week and thoroughly enjoyed the performance of Talking Heads. However, our pre-theatre meal in the restaurant was of very variable quality. My own meal was acceptable, but my husband's chicken main was dried out of all recognition. He did complain to the waiter who collected his plate - but there was no response from management. We will continue to attend this excelllentt theatre, but won't eat there again.

Excellent value for money. Pleasant service and reasonable choice of menu at the cafe attached to the theatre. Good coffee and generous portions - beware of the large soup it might defeat even the most determined diner.

Went to see Cinderella back in January but left it late to book, best available slot left was a special showing aimed at children and groups, this performance was so great as it was a lot more interactive you actually felt a part of the show, and casting rats as the good guys! a fabulous twist, really made the show come alive. Been to the octagon a few times now always a cosy atmosphere rather than a large auditorium which feels more impersonal but this performance was just Wow!!

The Octagon always puts on first class productions, attracting experienced actors. The front of house staff are very welcoming. There is a well stocked bar with good seating and smart cafe, serving snacks and main meals.

Good if small restaurant. Bar serves local beers.
Good website. Have a look then book a show...you won't regret it.

Went to watch Rita Sue and Bob 2 and was disappointed the actors where good and we had laugh but the props they used 4 old seats out of a car looked so pathetic I've seen better props at a school play .For how much we paid for the seats you expect it to be a bit better .

We're not really fans of theatre but it was my sisters birthday and theatre was how she wanted to spend it. What a surprise and what a performance of The Three Penny Opera, 1 word, FANTASTIC.
The theatre is amazing, as are the buildings that surround it, well kept and spotlessly clean. Staff here were really friendly and obliging and couldn't do enough for you.
The play itself was fantastic, the cast were very talented with a mixture of saturical and sarcastic humour. All in all an excellent evening.
