    Beautiful theatre. Easy to book tickets, easy to get in, easy to get out, and lots of room for your legs. Enjoy the show! Oh and there is a bar inside too.

    A dance house that's willing to take risks! Before every trip back I check the listings to see if there's something worth checking out. Nine times out of ten there is!

    Went to see Matthew Bourne’s Swan Lake and it was *sensational*. The venue itself is nice, clean, fairly comfortable and modern and well-connected.

    Don't be put off by 2nd circle seats. Still a fantastic view and if booked in advance, so much cheaper!

    If you enjoy Sadler's Wells and the Peacock Theatre, and come here - or would like to come here! - relatively often, join the Friend's program... excellent value :-)

    Tickets in c2 section - although high are still really good. Beautiful venue - swing by exmouth market for nice pre-theatre menus

    West Side Story was excellent. Best show I've seen in ages. Anita is superb.

    As newbies to dance we were extremely disappointed to find the swans in Matthew Bournes Swan Lake were all male - they therefore lacked the elegance we associated with the swans. Also NOT ballet

    Regardless of the show you go to, make sure you treat yourself to a lavender and orange cake!

    Order your interval drink at the Shakespeare's Head at the back. Less crowded, not as hot and packed.
