Cinema in Manchester

“Freddie Fantastic is phenomenal!!! What a star. Charismatic and genuinely funny - my children laughed the whole way through. We initially experienced him online for a school event and just had to have him for my daughter's birthday last March. He gave a brilliant magic class, where the kids were in hysterics and kept engaged the whole time. I cannot recommend Magic4children enough. Thank you!”

“Excellent well run mini theatre, we love the productions they put on.”

“Lovely, clean building with 24 hour concierge.”

“We hired the marvel bouncy castle and slide for my little ones 4th birthday. The kids had an absolute blast on it. The added feature of a slide kept them entertained for hours. The company were very professional, arrived promptly and good communication. Would really recommend and will be using again. Thankyou!”

“What a fabulous venue. Arriving at this huge grade 2 listed building (dead easy to reach with free parking) I felt somewhat in awe. The mill is massive, an incredible and a fascinating glimpse of history. It's a bit of a hike and a climb (although there is a lift) to get to the cinema. The staff are friendly and welcoming. The screen is fine and the projection as good as anywhere. The seats are comfortable and there is leg room. It was terrific to watch two superb old Hammer Horror films. The area has been crying out for such a cinema. I will certainly visit again. .”

“Last night's show was well presented it involved children of all ages and abilities who all displayed confidents.”

“Went to the matinee of Ghost Train on 17th May. Good fun with a pinch of suspense. Front of house staff friendly & welcoming.”

“First visit to Farnworth Little Theatre. On street parking and small car park. Bar facilities available. Support local theatre and buy tickets”

“So impressed with how professional and tidy the whole job was. Really nice people to deal with. Jamie was very responsive from first enquiry. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to even the fussiest person! Very pleased.”

“Our first visit to Knutsford Little Theatre, and boy! Did this venue deliver! Seats are limited, but that means you're always going to be close to the stage! The show we saw, Together for Theatre's "Into the Spotlight", was fantastic, and it was clear that there were up to date lighting, sound and stage equipment available! We enjoyed a drink in their bar, and appreciated the service and assistance of staff whenever sought... I currently have mobility issues and found it easy to navigate. Parking is limited on the street, but there was a nearby car park in easy walking distance, even for me! I highly recommend this venue!”

“The Ayckbourn play was enjoyable, well versed with great players. Thoroughly enjoyed the night. The staff are friendly and accommodating.”

“The experience was amazing for my daughter. What she learnt, the fun they had and the quality of production all within a week was amazing. Looking forward to the next one. The team organizing are professional and went above and beyond. Overall great experience.”

“Repaired a Samsung TV's back light for me and fitted it on my bedroom wall. Excellent and quick work by Davood. Very fair price.”

“Had a great time at an adult panto. The venue was fab great drinks and pizza too! No such thing as a bad seat at this venue.”

“Went to see a stage play The Father. Tremendous show, very well presented. Lovely theatre. Highly recommended.”

“Come one lunchtime (Tuesday/Wednesday or Thursday in term time) to the carol Nash hall to enjoy competent students from Chethams music school. Tickets (free) available on line. There’s soup and a roll available in the foyer for £3.50 in a cup. The music will be classical and perhaps be unknown to some but it’s marvellous to sit in a comfortable modern space. I’ve never so far, been to an evening concert there but intend to now. It’s very handy for Victoria train/ tram station.”

“"Some to Watch over me" absolutely brilliant performances by all the cast. Takes you on an emotional and thought provoking journey. The human will to survive and its sense of humour in all situations. Well done to all involved. A great theatre and very welcoming crew.”

“Great little cinema which is made especially enjoyable by the little introduction that the staff do on each film, giving a little insight into how it was made, or other films the director has made. The place is welcoming to everyone, and when my partner and I went to watch The Handmaiden, there were a wide variety of people in the audience, which is always good to see.”

“Just been to watch 'Everyone's talking about Jamie'. Wow, just wow. What a brilliant production. I cried, properly cried and I turned to my friend who was also crying. The acting capability was outstanding. The venue, lovely, small and perfectly adequate. Never been to a show at the Playhouse before, but would 100% return. What an amazing night watching some talented young and older actors.”

“Absolutely fabulous night watching the production of 'Dad's Army'. Characters were so true to TV adaptation. Singing WW2 songs in the audience really added to the ambience.”

“Hidden gem, great size stage comfortable seats and great atmosphere. Could do with plastic glasses for theatre drinks but not a Biggie.”

“We went to see the opening night of Aladdin and it was absolutely fantastic. We all had a brilliant time. The show itself was so entertaining having us all laughing and singing or clapping along. Everything was also really well organised. Fantastic family night out for a group age 5 to 73. Thank you and good luck for the rest.”

“Great to see the contemporary dance performance 'shed' by the Northern Rascals dance company at the Partington. Such a great performance dealing with timeless issues in a contemporary way in a performance which really spoke to me. Wonderful to have touring acts perform at this venue (let's bring more if we can!) as well as traditional theatre performances by the players.”

“Wow, what a fabulous show this afternoon at GLC. The Bridges of Madison county was exceptional. Thank you for making me a blubbering mess....in a good way. MAODS go from strength to strength!”

“We went for Smugs one man show which was absolutely brilliant, it is a small theatre and worked well to give a really intimate feel. A lot going on behind the scenes to provide such a great show, for me it was everything the theatre should be, special mention for front of house staff who were lovely. Wish them ATB for the future.”

“Just love it! Great little Theatre. Excellent team. Very friendly and good bar.”

“Fantastic small quaint theatre, great show.(fantastica musical) All production did a great effort.”

“Wonderful, modern theatre with comfortable seats, lovely clean lavatories,a well stocked bar and great volunteer helpers.”

“Fantastic friendly venue. Alas Ska were stupendous too! I look forward to coming here again even though I've nothing booked as yet.....”

“Yesterday I dined in at Rice n Spice the food was delicious *chefs kiss*, and the food was beautifully presented. The staff were attentive and welcoming, making our dining experience truly memorable. The staff recommend items off the menu we should try as they are a hit! We will definitely be back!”
