Cinema in Liverpool

“What a fantastic well preserved theatre , steeped in history, intimate setting, staff all very welcoming. Looking forward to a revisit”

“Surprisingly good. Good view of the screen. Good sound, not too loud like other cinemas. Very warm when we first got there but soon cooled down, very pleasant then. Apart from a group taking through most of the film, highly recommend this cinema. And the prices of drinks and sweets very reasonable. Down side - cash only”

“Great little theatre, you feel part of the performance. Staff were really friendly and helpful..”

“Joseph was fantastic. As a music teacher I have been involved in performances seen the professional performance. This was the best ever. The cast musicians stage producers etc. Put everything into achieving an extremely high standard. Loved it. Really felt I had my moneys worth”

“What a great performance from the children and adults today. The teachers, staff and volunteers really make it a fun and enjoyable place to go.”

“Great venue for shows, The place is clean and tidy and the staff were amazing. Well worth a visit”

“The venue is the only one of its kind, in Cheshire and on Merseyside and one of a handful of dedicated theatres in England, specifically ‘for, by and with’ children and young people. The space is for the young, and for anyone who was once young who wants to connect, play, dream, or imagine”

“I recently attended the theatre to watch Conspiracies Redirected and I wanted to say how much I enjoyed the show. I did not know what to expect beforehand but thoroughly enjoyed the show. It was very well written and at times really funny. My favourite part was the dodgy looking alien and the character Rachel. Will definitely come to watch another show.”

“Best show ever. Will be back soon. .”

“Amazing cast amazing performance. Thoroughly enjoyed The Little mermaid”

“Absolutely magical, thoroughly enjoyed by the whole family, the way the puppeteer worked the strings was amazing, fun and educational, if you are in the area you should visit here, you won't be disappointed,”

“Nice theatre. Seating is comfortable and it's a nice size, not massive but big enough for two tiers. I've seen a few performances here and I have no complaints. Bars for drinks and snacks. And they have a restaurant attached but I've not tried it myself.”

“Saw Tim Minchin at this wonderful place. There was a bar like a shipwreck. Blackpool is a bit grim, this place still has magic. I'd go there just to spend time there. The opera house stage and Theatre was special. A wonderful place. Seats raked so you could see over those in front of you. If you get the chance go here. It's top”

“Fantastic place with loads of eating places and accommodation at different levels,we stayed at the Motel and the room and services were brilliant.The area surrounding is excellent with great walks and very flat making getting about for older people like us lovely. The speed limit is very low on site for traffic meaning it feels very safe.”

“Enjoyable evening at Picturehouse watching Oscar-winner "Anora". Modern "concrete-with-everything" design in foyer with comfy couches to sit on in theatre. All topped off with helpful friendly staff. Close to Bold St if you fancy food before or after the film. Good night out all-round!”

“A group of 8 of us went and had a fantastic evening, The food was exceptional very tasty and of good sized portions. Only thing that let it down was we wasn't able to all sit at one table, we were next to each other but slightly apart . I thought it let our experience down a little but on a whole we had a great evening. Tom Hengler”

“We recently ran a conference for 80 people in the Garret Theatre at Storyhouse Chester, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The venue was modern, welcoming and perfectly equipped for a professional event, with great acoustics and a flexible layout that worked really well for our programme. The team at Storyhouse were brilliant throughout, friendly, organised and always on hand to help. Everything ran smoothly, and our delegates were really impressed with both the space and the service. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a high-quality venue in Chester. Welsh Dee Trust”

“First time visiting this venue for a live event. Loved the acoustics, the layout of the venue, and the good sized bar. They take cash and card payments and the toilets are clean and functional (unlike some places I've been to). We would happily return for future gigs, even though we were visiting from Yorkshire.”

“Stayed in the Premier inn rang for take out delivery it came piping hot 10 mins ahead of time and hand on heart was one of the best Indian meals I've had. Good job Balti spice.”

“Lovely theatre. Not huge but quite big. Car park very small. Small bar area but nice and cosy”

“Great facilities, cheap refreshments, and a decent show with cheap tickets to spend some time between drinks :-p Very broad range of shows, comfortable seating, and well tiered so you have a good view from further back. Seats to the left and right of the staging area may have a restricted view depending on the use of the stage area by the show you're there to see.”

“We had our sons Christening event here and it was a perfect venue for our large group. Even though they don't do catering they allow you to bring in your own food and have an bar they can open should you wish for your guests. Would highly recommend this place.”

“I visit here very regularly due to myself being a member of ACE Drama Group as we perform various shows which we have been doing now for 6 years and I can definitely say that the staff here all go out of their way to help with any various requirements that you may have and the owner Martin is amazing as he allows us to use this amazing place for our shows so many thanks all at Valley Community Theatre as you are all fantastic and great”

“We took the family to see the Christmas panto Dick Whittington ages range from 6 to 69. We all had a fantastic time. It was absolutely brilliant. The children loved it, we all did. !! The performers are all excellent but a special mention has to go to King rat & Idle Jack . They are brilliant. We've been to their pantos for the last few years & we'll definitely be there next year.”

“What a great venue, however if you have any mobility issues you will need to be at the front, so you don't have to climb any steps. Lift is quite spacious, toilets are clean, although there aren't many. The drinks are expensive in my opinion...a 250ml of pure orange was £3, as was a diet coke. Water is free though. Parking after 6pm is free on Le mans crescent, quite a few disabled parking spaces outside the main doors. Security will check your bags.”

“Lovely place to see a pantomime. Large foyer. Clean throughout. Looks new. Cafe on ground floor. Auditorium was spacious. Seats reasonably comfortable but like most theatres was a little tight on leg room for tall people. Wheelchairs allowed at front of stage. Toilets excellent.”

“Great venue with fantastic cafe during the day. Full bar in the evening. Full size stage in the Theatre with regular shows of interest to all”

“Been to a few shows, most recent was quite far back. Was expecting poor view, but nope - absolutely brilliant!!!!! Staff were helpful on the phone prior to booking, very respectful re my questions re. partner needing minimal step access to the lift etc Lovely theatre, with many big names appearing. Long may it continue!!!”
