November 2024Brilliant Venue, lots of space in the foyer area to have a drink and set up stands. The stage space is great for all events and the seating capacity works great especially with the tables at the front, it makes the venue seem like an award show!

October 2024Having not been here before. The last two booked events were cancelled due to renovations. Watched evening of burlesque tonight, and we both thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The venue appeared bright, clean, and spacious. Queues for the bar didn't take too long either, considering how busy it was. Bar was slightly overpriced, but such is life. We didn't experience any rudeness from team members. Think theatre could use a handrail of some kind. Às a little unsafe for those less able bodied seated up in the tiers. We plan to come again in the future. Side note: no rail, so going up the steps may be extremely difficult for some.

November 2024The Cresent is a great venue offering different performances for the whole family. My latest visit was the country roads night, which was fantastic. The artists were very good and got the whole audience involved. There's parking on site, a bar available and a pub at the rear to use after. Highly recommended for comedy nights, theatre and music.

November 2024Nice modern theatre. I would suggest getting there early to ensure you grab a decent parking space. The stalls are all at the same level so if you are at the back you will not have such a good view. Suggest tiered seating for the best experience.

October 2024Comedy club event.Upstairs nice tables n chairs plenty of space. The Bar was very limited in non alcoholic selection or diet drinks options, quite poor choices as pub downstairs with no better to offer. Event was good..toilet facilities are in need of refurbishment otherwise it was good event.
