    Awesome little fun with Dick Whittington and his Cat. So beautiful building! I just loved that even from cheap seats we could see perfectly. It was nice and warm inside too given this review over winter

    Went with my daughter to see the Panto. Lovely theatre. Brilliant Panto Kat B took time out at the end of the show to talk to patrons and pose for photos. My late parents met there whilst they were both working there, so it's a special place

    Venue is beautiful, staff are professional and friendly. Toilets are clean. Went to panto for the 1st time in many years. It used to be a magical experience years ago for adults and children alike 15-20 years ago but it has lost its sparkle now which is a real shame. Clive Rowe and Cat are still brilliant but the other cast members in particular the fairy godmother needed some magical fairy dust to improve their performance.
