Reviews
"Saw Simon & Garfunkel Through the years. Comfortable seats and very friendly helpful staff. Relaxed approach. We had a great night. The show was brilliant, too, with great acoustics. We must keep this lovely theatre open & as it's non-profit, making donations are extremely important. If everyone left just a pound or two when they left, it goes straight back in the pot for maintenance"
"The palace has a really nice charm to it, the main stage is great, not too big and the seating is relatively comfortable. It did get a bit warm in there but that is to be expected. Think I prefer it over the larger and supposedly grander princess theater"
"Very nice venue. Was there to see the 'Buddy Holly and the Cricketers' a few months ago and then 'Double Death' tonight. Tonight they were doing a collection towards the theatre. Both productions were really good."
"It is a small theatre and not quite what I'm used to. I have only been the once and the 5 stars are really for the amazing women's toilets. Could have stayed there being entertained by the wall coverings for ages. They play, too, was rather good."
"oh wow yet another phenomenal night of music from the zoots. just the perfect way to spend a night out. thankyou so much to maureen and the rest of the palace theatre staff for getting such a phenomenal band on the books. it was just the icing on the cake to see and talk to the band after. and to have our photos taken too. i would love to see the zoots back again this year .....if possible. absoultly love the palace theatre and the zoots."
