Cinema in Coventry

“We have been watching the Christmas pantomime at the Belgrade Theatre in Coventry for the last six years, and as always, this year was absolutely fantastic. The cast is amazing and we had a great night, just as we do every year. Iain Lauchlan as Nanny Fanny McWheeze and Craig Hollingsworth as Muddles the Jester, are particularly brilliant. We love watching them, especially when things don’t quite go to plan, which always adds to the fun and laughter! We visited on Thursday 18th December and had another wonderful experience. The Belgrade Theatre continues to deliver a truly magical and memorable pantomime year after year. Highly recommended!”

“Saw Macbeth here, starring Sam Heughan and Lia Williams. Our seats were amazing and we loved the intimacy of the venue. We could see every gesture and facial expression, which made for a riveting theatre experience. We’ll definitely be back.”

“Fantastic production of Sweeney Todd, the Demon Barber of Fleet Street. The Stephen Sondheim show is a bit out of the normal scope of the Criterion, but they have drawn together some excellent singers and musicians as well as actors. The ingenious staging makes best use of the space. The energy of the cast made me think they’ll probably lose weight during the run - I felt as if I’d lived through the experience by the time the curtain fell! I’d just have liked to see the musicians credited in the programme and brought on to take a bow as they were literally behind the scenes.”

“Great little theatre, great staff and loads of parking”

“This is the second time I have seen a Heartbreak production. We recently saw then green team showing of Bad Dad at Packwood House. How can we be soaked through from the rain but still have big smiles on our faces? Because they are so great, professional and encompassing in their performances. The show must go on as they say, despite the weather and we are certainly pleased that they did. Looking forward to seeing the next show. Such great family entertainment for all. Thank you Heartbreak Productions”

“Brilliant and funny show of Jack and the Beanstalk panto. Fun for all the family and we had a great time. Already excited for snow white next year!”

“Very entertaining high quality amateur dramatics production”

“Good atmosphere and the food is not expensive.”

“Great place... lovely people... looking forward to singing with the Pellena male voice choir there again...”

“First time at the Albany Theatre, what a superb venue. Went to see ELO Encounter who were also brilliant.”

“The Mrs and I went on 14/09/23 at 20:00. Our tickets were checked and we were ushered in by a friendly and welcoming young lady. The place is clean, and well maintained. The seats are very comfortable, the sound amazing and the temperature inside was just right. The toilets were clean. The staff at the snack bar were friendly and helpful. The car park is on the right side of the building. Will definitely be going there again. Highly recommended.”

“This is a beautiful building located in the Blue Coat School where they teach English and the auditorium has comfy seats, a wide projection and audio and sound equipment. With a range of performances from the staff and children at the school, this is a brilliant experience for all.”

“Went for the Christmas Quiz - had a lovely time. Great atmosphere and good bar! Hope they do it again next year.”

“Stand up comedy club night - great atmosphere, awesome evening! Been a few times here and it’s always fun. What was also noticeable is the management - visible, supportive and encouraging towards their staff. Great to see. Would definitely recommend.”

“Nice pub when inside very different to what I thought it was better cosy little sections to seat and have your meal also had outside garden the food came out very hot and I did enjoy my meal my friend had gluten-free meal food was great value for money £8.25 With a drink, lemonade or Pepsi staff were very nice and welcoming with a smile”

“A wonderful exhibition of Frida Kahlo, brought to life through video and projected pictures on the walls and floor . A 45 minute show was just about right and the staff were all helpful. If you can get to the show I highly recommend you go”

“Resorts World, Birmingham is a compact lifestyle mall next to NEC, offering a mix of shopping, dining, and entertainment. While the retail options are limited to a few stores and boutiques, it’s the eateries and leisure spaces that stand out. Visitors can enjoy Miller & Carter Steakhouse, TGI Fridays, Zizzi, and Karaage. For fun, Hollywood Bowl provides a lively arcade and games arena, making it a convenient spot to relax after exhibitions or events.”

“This is a fabulous pub, woth really friendly staff. It's on the canal front so we sat and had a pint outside admiring the view. We'll be back.”

“I quite often have takeaways from Hong Kong Garden. The service is quick and efficient with touch card payment, the food is delicious and the menu covers an enormous range of dishes. In my view it is the very best Chinese takeaway in Kenilworth and I have tried them all.”

“This was a fantastic pub for drinking, carrying the industrial history of Coventry over with its decor! This includes the photos of the motor industry's cars and the area with an old clock, counter is well-presented itself. I had a nice pint of Stowford Press, appreciating the outside seating!”

“Quality venue for performing and watching music. We are very much looking forward to performing there again soon!! Friendly, conscientious, reliable staff!”

“The local 'Am Dram' theatre company. This group of lovely folks regularly perform musicals at the Tamworth Assembly Rooms. Do have a fun evening out and come along to watch some of their wonderful performances. Maybe you would like to help out or perform in which case they would be pleased to meet you. They have recently done My Fair Lady, Oliver, 9 to 5 and have Sister Act Oct 2025. They now have a youth cast too for your under 18s.”

“Great location! Can access to city center very quickly. All futniture in my room is very new!”

“An amazing company that helps artistic life flourish. Enhances the creativity of young people, helping them to grow and become confident and life loving. Their activities color the world of the children and adulds alike. Keep childhood alive, keep creativity expanding.”
