Reviews of The Black-E
"The BlackE is a very special place. one of the last bastions of community focused art projects in this part of the city. we have hired the main hall many times and have other spaces available. get in touch and go have a look for yourself"
"Unusual and quirky building but perfect for a wedding reception"
"Beautiful building. Really good venue for Thai boxing."
"A great venue that needs more publicity. People around the city need to be more aware of what it does."
"Only ever been to The Blackie for the top Zumba classes,but went last night to see the Christmas panto Beauty and the Beast with family.Thoroughly enjoyed it, very funny and well acted.This is the first time I'm told the Blackie has hosted a production like this.Hope lots more theatre in the future.It worked very well with the audience seated on all four sides of the room and the acting taking place on the ground much better interaction than rows facing a stage.Only problem was at the interval,drinks and snacks were served at the ground floor entrance which was cramped with no seating and door wide open,but can't really complain for a first production! The staff were really nice and friendly also which made for a pleasant evening."
