Went last night to see Dirty Dancing. Front row of the circle, so excellent view of the stage. Comfy seats. Staff friendly. Went to the look before the show started, so missed the half time queue at the ladies.
It's showing its age, but still the best place to see shows in town.

Quaintly this place has charm relating to its rather tired 1960's appearance. The facade at the moment is being refurbished. The auditorium itself is can be entered without too many steps and the seats are comfortable with adequate legroom. Due to the wide construction all the seats are quite close to the stage leading to a degree of intimacy. The bars are spacious but lacking in character with a limited range of drinks and beer, unfortunately, being served in plastic mugs. However the staff were quick to recognise and deal with queues during the interval so we were served quickly. One downside, outside the theatre's control, is parking which is pay-and-display a long walk away down a cold and windy seafront. The show itself? Rather average and not as good as the television episodes but it was a sell out!

We went to see the Magic of Motown, really good. I purchased three bottles of fruit cider, one for the first half and two for my wife and I for the interval, absolutely shocked as I was charged just short of £20.00. That's taking the mickey.

Legend were fantastic, and a real great tribute to the late Bob Marley...excellent show.
However the review really is for them. The bar workers are inexperienced and very slow, and the drinks VERY expensive, and the bar closed well before end of show.
The lady greeting was a lovely lady and very helpful, but with the staff in place on this night, if anything had kicked off they couldn't have handled it, they struggled with the ladies dancing in the aisles. It is a lovely theatre, just needs a little bit more thought.

Just got back from seeing the panto and must say we came away with a smile on our faces. We thought the scenery, costumes, dancing and performances was much better than last year. The dame and billy were the stars of the show for us. Well done White Rock!

Had a fabulously enjoyable show with Jim in Feb 2019.
He was completely outrageous and thoroughly funny. Such a delight in the crazy PC world we live in.
We were in the circle and visibility was excellent. The seats aren’t the biggest in the world but they are ok.
Only grumble is the circle bar.
TOTALLY INADEQUATE STAFFING AND CRAZY QUEUES TO WAIT FOR A DRINK.
And then at the interval they put an extra barman on, but there was still only a single till, so the delays were just as bad.
It was exactly like this the last visit 12 months ago, why don’t the management realise that they are ACTIVELY DISCOURAGING PEOPLE FROM SPENDING THEIR MONEYS WITH WHITE ROCK??
But overall, we had a fab night.
Thank you Jim.👍👍

Great venue - really good band.
Great to be allowed to stand and boogie in the theatre, and good that you can take drinks into the auditorium
Long live live music!

An outstanding night this evening watching the international piano concerto. Circle seats had a great view.
New downstairs configuration without tiered seating will take some getting used to...especially the lack of carpet.
