royal hippodrome theatre

We enjoyed a great night at the Royal Hippodrome for The Johnny Cash Tribute show and the theatre was almost full.Special thanks to the lovely lady running the bar on her own she worked very hard and did a great job making us very welcome while serving our drinks.Will visit this theatre again soon as its a great place for a live show.

Johnny Cash Roadshow tribute show, 13th March, 2015. Brilliant show, great music, fantastic artists. Love coming to this theatre. The staff are so friendly, and the cost is usually much cheaper than the Congress, with just as good shows, and a great variety for all ages. You can choose which seats you want on-line, very easy. Will be visiting again soon.

We really enjoyed the music by the Johnny Cash tribute band. The volunteer staff at the theatre were all very friendly and we enjoyed a drink in the bar in the interval. We will definitely be back.

Brilliant evening. Small venue made it feel as if the artist was among the audience. Joe maceldrey gave a good evenings entertainment.

Had not visited this theatre before, and the exterior is a little off putting, but was really impressed. Absolutely lovely theatre, beautifully kept, and the staff were absolutely charming and so helpful. Saw Joe McElderry, who put on a terrific show. All in all a great night out. Would definitely visit again, highly recommended

Fabulous show joe was brilliantand we would see him again in fact we have just booked to see him again in Croydon in May

This was our second visit to this fabulous theatre, the first being just the week before for the EODS play, which was superbly performed by the cast. The second show was Joe McEderry, which again was fantastic and for both shows, the theatre was a brilliant choice. Intimate and you felt truly as if you were in the heart of the performance. We have lived in Eastbourne for over 4 years and have visited the Congress and Devonshire Park Theatres many times, but have overlooked the Hippodrome, which we feel was a great mistake. There are many events going on in this iconic theatre and we need to keep them supported, to ensure that the future of this venue is assured. It would an absolute tragedy if this was allowed to close and full marks to whoever runs it and the volunteers for keeping it going.

Me and my daughter thoroughly enjoyed watching Aladdin, our best bit was when the characters came out to say hello in the interval and the fantastic magic carpet. The staff were very friendy. We will be visiting again.

It our first time going to this theatre everybody was really friendly and the whole experience was fantastic. We will certainly be going again it was a wonderful afternoon

Had a really enjoyable time at RHT last Friday. Took my mother and 3 of my grandchildren who also really enjoyed the show. I always love going to this theatre as the atmosphere is always good whatever the show and the staff are very friendly.

We went to an afternoon performance of 'Aladdin Jnr' which was very entertaining. The theatre was very comfortable and very quaint. We will certainly return as we cannot wait to see another first class show.

We had a lovely visit to the Hippodrome and found the show fantastic. It had a friendly and welcoming atmosphere with a personal touch. There was a bar to chose from a variety of drinks.

What a wonderful theatre. a real piece of history that is staffed by volunteers who make everyone feel so welcome. They could not be more helpful in terms of looking after the children.I have attended numerous shows here with my grand daughter (age 3) and it is a great way to prepare her for visiting bigger more impersonal venues in the future.The show as always was bright and cheerful and everything is done with real enthusiasm.Please keep it up RHT, Eastbourne will be a sadder place without you.

I'd planned to bring my grandchildren but was unable to go at the last minuter so my son and daughter in law took them. I received a phone call from my 6 year old grandson telling me it was 'brilliant'. They loved the flying carpet and the genie and particularly enjoyed the interaction with the cast during the interval. This is the second production they've see - ('Little Mermaid' last year) - and we will definitely bring them again.

Excellent show myself and 4 year old loved it great performance and not extortionate prices win win will be back next time
