Another great Jack and the Beanstalk panto from St Georges Theatre this year. We attended the 1.00pm 19 Dec 2021 show and loved all the characters, enjoyed the singing and lapped up the atmosphere. We always love the little theatre as it is also a great venue with refreshments and a cafe opposite, suitable for both youngsters and oldies alike. Well done to all concerned.

On holiday from Southampton and booked seats to see Daniella Beck, singer. What a voice! Lovely couple of hours (Including a break for refreshments) Songs from Musicals, Opera etc. She sang 'Bring Him Home' from Les Misérables , WOW! Blew us away as my partner is a massive fan especially of, Alfie Boe. A little bit of audience participation as well. All in all a very pleasant evening. Thank you to the staff and Daniella.

Absolutely brilliant show, my 3&5 year old children absolutely loved it! Myself and my husband found ourselves laughing and joining in the whole way through as well! Very well organised and socially distanced between audience and even on stage. They did extremely well. All staff members were happy, polite, helpful and a joy to be around. The show itself was brilliant. Would highly recommend and will definitely be returning

I have been to three shows at St. George's this year and had problems with the booking process every time. First show wasn't showing online, so I had to pop in. Second show the website wouldn't work, so I phoned up. Third show the new website would only offer two seats in separate rows, however I waited a couple of weeks, and managed to book successfully. I chose the print tickets at home option, but on arrival was told that I had to go to the box office to exchange these for proper tickets. Not much of a problem even though the box office is in another building, and it was a cold, damp November night. On arrival at the box office, the lady told us that we didn't need to exchange the tickets, and accompanied us back to the theatre to instruct the staff there to let us take our seats. Some extra training is required, and it's no wonder that audience numbers are small, when it's so difficult to book.
The theatre is a fairly recent conversion from an old church, so much of the equipment is modern, but the seating is moveable, and not that comfortable, although there is plenty of legroom. There is a bar at the rear of the auditorium, but if you want ice cream, then it's outside to the cafe / box office building nearby.
I realize that many of the staff are volunteers, but management needs to ensure that they are properly trained, and there really is no excuse for such a poor website booking experience on so many occasions.

A good show for children (ages 4-10). A silly hour of fun, with some good tricks and child friendly Captain Calamity. This show was under the theatres new 'pay what you can' pricing which meant it was a very affordable afternoon out.

Went here to watch the Fury's, easy to find, parked on the seafront, had fish and chips then got a taxi to the theatre, went into the small bar/cafe next to the theatre had coffee and cake, lovely staff, very welcoming, seats a little uncomfortable but unavoidable and did not spoil the show. Your very close wherever you sit so it makes for a very friendly theatre, will certainly go again.
