"We went to see Cinderella. A fabulous performance with a great cast. Really enjoyed it, as did my granddaughter. Fab sets, music and choreography. Performance included some very load bangs, which produced a lot of smoke which affected my asthma. Full auditorium."
"This was actually my first ever visit to a theatre, went to see Dickens A Christmas Carol, the theatre itself was undergoing some reconstruction but this was not in anyway distracting. As for the play WOW, 7 or 8 people played the parts and were brilliant, it's my favourite story and they more than did it justice"
"Lovely theatre, just on edge of town. Had a lovely little photo booth area set up for the Christmas shows. After checking reviews on parking, I decided against parking at the one recommended on the website, and opted for the one over the road at the Ramada hotel. It was pretty empty, and there was no queue to get out, and only cost £1 in the hotel reception. The theatre itself felt really lovely and old fashioned, in a really nice way. The production was great, and all the staff were really friendly. I only dropped one star as when I arrived, I was after a warm drink but was told they weren't open yet, but have no indication of when they were, so I didn't get a drink before the show, not a massive issue, I will make sure I preorder next time as I hadn't realised I could do this."
"First time going to The Albany Theatre, helpful staff, brilliant show "Thank You for the Music" a fully enjoyable night with friend's."
"Visited the Albany Theatre for a small gig. The venue was situated at the back of the main building. The staff (sound guys, security etc) were amazing. Having visited as part of a band, the staff were so friendly & accommodating. Set up was straight forward, sound checks were quick. Once the gig started the sound & lighting was fantastic. Dont think I have met a friendlier bunch of sound engineers at the many venues I have attended. Ideal for smaller bands with anything between 100 & 300 guests While there, there was a fire alarm & the venue had to be evacuated. Staff were calm & handled the situation well ...... luckily it was a false alarm. Would definitely return to this venue."
