  Went to watch Moulin Rougue, absolutely amazing show, seats were much comfier than other theatres ive attended. The shows here are often shows from the Westend.

  Went to see Moulin Rouge and it was a really good experience. We were right up in upper circle- needed oxygen when I got to the top- my fault for allowing someone else to get the tickets. The fact you can order food and drinks to your seat was a brilliant idea- saves that mad dash to the bar at the interval and hoping you get a drink before the show starts back up. Staff were lovely and friendly. Only downfall was the toilets, they definitely need more as there were constant queues.

  Nice theatre. I had an inconsiderate girl sitting forward in her seat in front of me, blocking my view. I asked staff to speak to her but they didn't bother. Bit of a shame I paid money to see the back of someone's head.

  The musical we watched was incredible, the wait to enter was short and the food/drink served was delicious, I couldn't ask for a better experience, acoustics especially stood out, I mean wow, the sound was incredible
