Lovely little theatre but impossible to park. Restrictions everywhere. You need to add half an hour to park and walk.

Avery old and as much as possible original theatre. Puts on a lot of shows others wouldn't and really has the old time look and feel. Be aware the seating is not very comfortable staff are very friendly and viewing can be obscured but pricing compensates

Charlie Chaplin has entertained from this stage. You can feel the atmosphere. Fabulous little theatre. If you don't want to see a show. Do a back stage tour. Original and beautifully kept

Went to see "That's Entertainment". An excellent musical with comedy interspersed throughout the 2 hour long show. Highly recommended and great value I am a visitor to Eastbourne but recognise that places like this need your support to continue providing shows in a historic theatre.

It's ok. Drinks prices are very expensive. Volunteers work hard.

Staff were friendly, helpful and welcoming. The tickets are good value, seats are what you would expect for a theatre of this age, a little tatty at the edges, but money is being raised for refurbishment. Row J has extra leg room, and there are 2 wheelchair spaces with companion seats available.

Reasonable range of drinks available at the bar for good prices, but the bar is cash only (cash machine over the road at Tesco Express if you need it.)

I've seen several shows here now, and they've always been good fun. Highly recommended.
