If you can get a ticket to see this panto you must try & see it. For me the characters of the Ugly Sisters & Buttons make the Cinderella panto & this production does. I loved it & the 3D effects just added to a great visit. Well done.

Yes it’s not West End but it’s not trying to be but it is definitely worth going to see the pantomime. The 3D is amazing as are the dancers shame the same can’t be said for The Baron tho!!

Absolutely brilliant. Yes it’s quite small and maybe not quiet west end standard but great price and the place is comfortable for kids.
The actors were fantastic and the play was great. My 5 year old loved every minute of it! The 3D was a fantastic touch and really made it stand out from other pantomimes.
Would highly recommend for kids and adults with a sense of humour!

Don't get box office names particularly which is a shame as I live nearby. Fine venue, bit cramped and small. Nothing special. Fine if the show you are seeing is something you want to.

Highly recommended for rainy days. Or you could always come here for your birthday instead as a treat. Great food and shows too. The seats are comfortable and staff seem friendly and helpful as well.
Excellent sound quality. I have brought my daughter here many times in the past. Lovely atmosphere.
I give it 5/5. I wish I had pictures of the place that I could post. Trying to decide if I want to come here for my birthday or not next year. My parents have been when they are in town.

I have been to many shows at this theatre. I have always found it to be comfortable and well laid out and have enjoyed a mixture of shows in my visits there. I ave seen many tribute groups, comedy acts and a few new acts.
I have always found it comfortable and it has excellent acoustics as well as clarity when someone is speaking on stage.

We've been to see a number of acts, plays and shows at the Playhouse and I have to say it's one of our favourite places to go.
The "Open plan" layout just seems different and in a way more intimate. Not quite theatre in the round, but gives the same sort of feel.
As with a lot of local theatres, there is a wide variety of performances to see - anything from your favourite tribute band, through to such classics as waiting fro Godot.
Keep up the good work guys.

Jongleurs comes round every couple of months to the Epsom Playhouse. Always great with top acts and laughs!

Epsom is fortunate in having this 400 seat theatre plus The Studio seating 80. Fine pianos are available in both. A wide rang of shows from Jazz to Classical Music, Mystics to Rock and Roll, amateur dramatics, choral, Epsom Talks, and shows touring which are touring nationally. Friendly staff and excellent technical staff and facilities. Good sound quality throughout.

Absolutely brilliant band and gig. All the staff were friendly and helpful from picking up the tickets, having a drink to being shown our seats. Can't wait till next year for a repeat performance.
Hopefully will be able to use this local venue before then as really convenient and would definitely recommend.

Once again a brilliant evening spent at the playhouse. We did not eat in the bar but had a drink. Very busy but staff were polite and professional.
Seats were perfect.
I would highly recommend this venue for watching plays or music shows even cinema

First visit to Epsom playhouse my local Theatre. We always go to London to the Theatre but decided to go and see the above show which was on for one night. We were immediately impressed with the friendliness of the staff who welcomed us to this lovely intimate Theatre. Unlike the large Theatres you were involved with the performers as you were not too far away from them. The performers were highly professional and the sound system very good. Seat were comfortable and plenty of leg room, I'm six foot three.
A very enjoyable evening and a very pleasant experience.
Go and support your local Theatre in Epsom, you won't regret it.

The play was brilliant, however the one thing that let my evening down were the ushers, they were so rude. They really need to hone in on their people skills. They had a table with a couple of bottles of alcohol and a small box of chocolates, shouting to people to buy tickets, they told an elderly lady to put her phone away when she was finding out where her grandson was. The lady did tell the usher but he just shouted at her even more - disgusting!!
If I was ever to visit again, I would seriously consider putting in a complaint about the rudeness of the ushers.
The only thing that made up for it was how brilliant the play was, if not for that I would definitely have walked out!

The ushers seriously need to calm down, they are so rude! They may be volunteers but that does not excuse rudeness. They walk around demanding people put away their phones BEFORE the show has even started, they are completely obsessed by it and think it is okay to prod and speak aggressively to visitors. For what it is worth I was not the one being told to put my phone away but observing how they were treating people. Management should consider some training in people skills!

We went to see a friend in the production of Legally Blonde and what a great little theatre it is! Local to me and has a great feel about it. We enjoyed the production and the theatre staff were very attentive and helpful. We will be back to see other productions thank you for an enjoyable evening.

Went here for first time to see the Searchers. I was very pleasantly surprised by the closeness to the action and good all round views. Acoustics were good, and felt like we were part of the show. All about playhouse is friendly and intimate. Ushers all very helpful with nice demeanour. Good value for show.

A wonderful local theatre with a wide range of shows for all the family. The main theatre has good tiered seating - I have watched several shows and always had a good view. Plenty of places to eat nearby or at the Bar and Bistro on site. Parking at the Ashley Centre car park is very convenient if a little pricey. Staff showing you to your seats could try and smile occasionally!

I took my mum to see a tribute Rod Stewart and it was a lovely experience. The playhouse is the perfect size and shape that no seat seems to have a bad view. It's easy to park and good value for money.

The theatre is a nice size, and the seat easily accessible. There is generally quite a nice assortment of shows at the venue too.

Living in the area I don't go here often enough. Not because of the quality but because London is on the door step. I recently attended a comedy gig (James Acaster) and, as always, I was impressed with the friendly staff and organisation in the venue generally. Really need to stay on the alert and visit the Playhouse more often.

The Epsom Playhouse is very easy to find and parking is next door - that's a big plus.
The Playhouse staff were very helpful and friendly and the facilities (bar, loos, displays etc are very good),
Not much of a seating area in the foyer but it's not that big a place and plenty of seats/tables in the bar area.
The Auditorium was well appointed, acoustics very good and a feeling of being very close to the stage no matter where you sat. Seats surprisingly spacious & comfortable with ample legroom (much more so than at the 02 or Guildford's GLive)
Very enjoyable afternoon in very pleasant surroundings - will go there again.
