lovely little theatre, I remember my Nan taking me here as a child.
Lovely views, bars on each floor so you’re not all crammed in like sardines and the staff were very friendly and helpful.
We sat in a ‘restricted’ view seat to see Rob Becket (thinking it’s more important you can hear rather than see a standup) but there was nothing ‘restricted’ about it. Perfect view, just not straight on but still saw everything perfectly.
Only slight niggle which is to be expected in an older theatre, is the leg room. At 5”9, it’s a little cramped but hardly the end of the world, would advise anyone over the 6” mark consider an end of row seat.

Well this was the first time that I have visited the Congress since it had a full face-lift and it's more modern now, as it was rather dated before.

However my only criticism is that the seats in the auditorium are not very comfortable. Now it wasn't just me as I noticed a few other people squirming around in their seats during the second half of the performance.

Lovely theatre. Friendly staff. We sat in the grand circle. Great view of the stage. Comfortable seating loads of leg room. Good sound quality. The cafe bar on the ground floor is nice. Not cheap, but friendly staff and quick service.

An excellent theatre since refurb, comfy and good sound.
We sat at the back, at the top for School of Rock and could see and hear everything.
School of Rock excellent I think it is wonderful we can have a West End show in Eastbourne.
Looking forward to our next visit

Saw lord of the dance which was brilliant but the actual theatre was a bit dated . Hadn't been there before and the outside signage is tiny telling you it is the theatre unless you look up high.
