Lovely venue and fairly easy to find as someone not from the area. Seats comfortable and more than enough legroom. Staff were great, there were two empty seats on the front row which we were allowed to move to so we could sit together (we booked last minute so spent the first act sat apart).Only issue was the interval drinks, we ordered vodka and coke and I think there was more vodka in the drink than coke. Probably made it very good value for us but it was a little strong!Would recommend visiting this theatre.
We went to watch 'and then there were none' it was quite busy but not full. The show was fantastic and I recommend it to anyone. The theatre is grand old place and I've been a quite a few times. Views to the stage are good and the seats are comfortable if not a little squashed together. Prices are reasonable as well. Here's to the next visit in a couple of months, I look forward to it!
Been to see Cinderella today at The Grand and had a fantastic time, the theatre is beautiful and the lighting and effects were superb. Clearly the billed star of this show was Julian Clary but the actual star of the she for me was Joe Tracini, he is very very funny, a talented actor,singer and magician ! Loved it !
We visited the Grand Theatre on the 11th January 2015, to watch the pantomime. I haven't been to see a performance for a few years, and I had forgotten just what a beautiful theatre it is.The pantomime was funny, and Julian Clary and Buttons were hilarious.I would also like to add that the staff at the theatre are first class.One male of staff, in particular, was a credit to the theatre. I did not take his name, and I wish that I had.He was very caring and helpful, when a member got upset and had to leave for a short while. A fantastic night out at a stunning theatre.
a classic beautiful looking as a theatre should with a 3 level horseshoe auditorium in red, white and gold. there are pillars holding up the levels which can be a problem if you sit in some seats. booster seats are available for children. this being an older theatre legroom is not always good. the theatre brings a whole host of west end and touring shows right to the heart of the midlands and as it is not as big as its birmingham rivals plays sit comfortably in the space too. it is also priced to fit the local population and visiting is a great joy. in the foyer the theatre has displays of its long history and there are bars and the box office is good too. well worth a visit
went to see the show yesterday28/1/15 it was brilliant brian as ever the showman, costmes and the performers were all fantastic,we go to the theatre fairly often , and have never seem a poor show yet, I would recommend the grand to every one,like having the west end on your doorstep,again well done the cast of barnum. phil buttery
This is my first visit to the theatre and first ballet and can i just say it was everything i had hoped. Our seats were in the grand circle and when i booked i imagined the view to be poor but they were great, not much leg room for us long legged people though. The staff were very good, somone who wasn't feeling well they were quick to help out. All together a great night and I look forward to visiting again.
Love this theatre ,great position in wolverhampton with many bars and restaraunts close at hand.Seating plan and decor are good with plenty of space even for me at 6feet 3 tall between rows.First class toilets and good access for disabled people all in all a good night to be had no matter what show you go to see.
This is OUR theatre and we in Wolverhampton are very proud of it! My nephew is in the pantomime this year ( and last year). The decor is lovely, seats comfortable and staff very friendly and helpful. I am sent a list by e-mail of future events as I take my "Dreamers" club to the theatre.
We couldn't get to our seats in time,I have written in to complain no response really bad customer service
