"Beyond the West End is a fabulous show. Well thought out using sections from many West End shows to tell a story by very talented performers. The theatre is well run."
"Fab theatre. Nice bar area, all drinks £4. No real ale but good stocks of everything else. Great volunteers running like clockwork. Always buy a few raffle tickets. The proceeds paid for air conditioning to be installed last year and were we thankful for it this year!! Amazing show, 'Calling Planet Earth'."
