New Theatre Cardiff

Reviews

1. Lynette Lee Corporal-Penman ★★★★☆

   It was our first time watching at New Theatre. It's conveniently located in the city centre and, while an old theatre, it exudes and Old World elegance that old buildings have. I've always loved old theatres although I wish sometimes the Stalls seats are wider/more spacious. The sound system could use some upgrade. Kudos to the friendly, welcoming, professional staff for making the whole theatre experience quite pleasant. They will give you all important information as clearly as possible that you don't need to ask further questions. Overall, a good experience.

   New Theatre is an old theatre, and it shows in the small seating with limited leg room. However the acoustics are great (way better than the Ultilia Arena). Shows are diverse and mostly affordable. Staff are excellent, knowledgeable and friendly. No parking on site, so you'll need to walk in.

   First time at this venue. Now that St. David's is closed this is now the main place. Just saw Stewart Lee and this venue was perfect as it is a nice size for comedy. Will definitely be back. For anyone coming by train it is a 15 to 20 minute walk from Cardiff Central.

   First time attending, I was extremely nervous as I had no idea where I was or where to go, the staff were amazing, lady at the door told me and my sister where to go and where everything was, very polite and professional, she gave us a book with a list of all the shows, I was pleasantly surprised of the acts they have there The reception area was quite small ish, then theres was a small bar to get refreshments etc, and some stools and a long thin table against a wall. The show was amazing! My sister immediately brought more tickets to come back as we had much a great time.

   Nice theatre, comfortable seats, and good food/drink choices. Of course like any other theatre they’re a bit expensive! Also the men’s loo on the top floor is converted into a women’s loo, so men have to use ground or first floor bathrooms.

   Nice venue. Clean with helpful staff. The place is showing its age but in the best possible way, as its size and decor are of a bygone era. A great place to watch a play and feel part of it. Small and personal. I would go here again and again.

   A great place to see a show or a band, recently refurbished to a high standard in the bar areas. The staff are friendly and helpful. Toilets are small and there can be a wait during the interval, but that's not an issue. I would have given it 5 stars but there was a long queue getting in and then queuing for refreshments the bar announced it was closing for the act to start, and it was so warm inside no option for water. A free water cooler would have been Ideal and something to consider. By the way Billy Joel Song Book was outstanding.

   The New Theatre is a lovely little place. The seats are comfortable with a reasonable amount of legroom and you are never too far away from the stage. The staff were really friendly and after a quick check of our covid passes we were in.
