We saw Rapunzel Rocks and it was absolutely brilliant. We laughed until we cried, all the children really got involved. Will definitely see wicked productions again.

I took my daughters and grandchildren to see this show as we had all enjoyed Treasure Island by the same company last year. It didn't disappoint! Great family entertainment. We all laughed so much right from my 4 year old grandson to myself ( good deal older)! The company struck the perfect balance for entertaining us all which isn't easy. A triumph!

Visited for a show on Larry Grayson and I really was not very enamoured with the production. The premises is rather strange, the entrance consisting of one set of doors in the middle of a tatty row of shops. Inside it is obviously run on the shoestring, with most if not all of the staff apparently being volunteers with all the advantages and disadvantages that entails. The auditorium is very Victorian, and reasonably well preserved, the bar fairly small and not really like a theatre bar at all. I'm amazed in a moderate sized town with three theatres it has survived, but deserves credit for doing so.I think for many years it ran budget variety shows catering for coach loads of pensioners. Would I go back ? With the right show probably yes.

Electric concert by Tenors Unlimited, called the ‘Rat Pack of Opera’. This trio – Paul, Scott and Jem – perform an eclectic array of songs everything from serious opera such as “La Donna E Mobile” and “The Pearl Fishers Duet” to popular songs such as “Volare” and “Moon River”. They demonstrate amazing talent and harmonies as they move from song to song, interspersed with great humour and interaction with the audience. Other songs include Freddie Mercury’s “Granada”, Sting’s “Fragile” and songs written by Tenors Unlimited themselves including “Viva La Vita” and “Senze di Te”. They were joined by two local choirs – The Archway Group and St Andrew’s Prep School, both of which performed their own numbers and supported Tenors Unlimited on several songs. This included “Nessun Dorma” which was very moving. I’d definitely see these guys again – they are amazing! The Royal Hippodrome was an excellent venue, very friendly welcome, dramatic lighting and excellent sound quality.

Came to see beauty and the beast for my daughters birthday. She really enjoyed it as she loves acting. All the actors even the 6 yr old boy were great.

My third visit to the smaller of Eastbourne Theatres. Not the smartest part of town but a beautiful original theatre inside with a fantastic atmosphere. We saw Beauty and The Beast. Very professional production and very enjoyable.

A really lovely theatre with a great atmosphere. The staff were incredibly helpful. We saw Beauty and the Beast JR with our two children who loved seeing the cast during the interval when they did the meet and greet.

Beauty and the beast was brilliant. The children got to enjoy the theatre experience at an affordable price for families.

A hidden treasure of a theatre. Amazing happy to help staff even with all the mayhem of children about, the staff were there to make sure the children had booster seats and even a regular rubbish collect, but best of all was the show... The cast were truly amazing and put on a great performance. These young performers were true professionals and are set for greater things so try and see a performance before they move on. At the interval the cast had photos taken with the children all in true character no room for divas in this show.
If your going to a family show be prepared for children's excited chatter throughout.

I booked to see beauty and the beast abit last for me and my friends daughter during half term, I was expecting a basic production, but how wrong was i..... it was brilliant, the cast were fantastic and so professional in all the scenes from singing, dancing and acting, they also came out into the audience during the break to meet the kids which was great. The production was brilliant, the costumes fantastic and to add to that friendly staff and a great theatre and atmosphere, can't recommend highly enough, would of happily paid more.

The staff where friendly and helpful. The show was fantastic, my children loved having pictures with the actors during the intermission. We have already booked for a show in April.

We have been to several productions at this theatre and it is excellent value for money. The production and the performances have all been top rate and easily equal to shows we have paid more than twice the money to see. I would thoroughly recommend a visit.
