The Alexandra

We went to see 'Go your own way' a Fleetwood Mac tribute, the theatre staff were excellent and the show was brilliant. Disabled access was a bit of a worry as I havent been here before and was with a disabled friend, it was a bit of an unknown adventure. Alas there was no problem with my friends motorised chair or getting to our seats due to the exceptional help from theatre staff .. everything went flawlessly. However prices for soft drinks and such are a little high but hell this isnt something you do every day of the week and it would stop me going again to another show, I would like to use this review to also give a big thank you to Leslie who was more than helpful and informative during our visit ... thank you very much, you are a credit to the theatre.

This historic theatre has a quirky layout in the expansive, multi level building. All staff are friendly and welcoming, with the doorman most helpful as he went above and beyond to assist us on our arrival in a very friendly manner. The bars offer a somewhat limited selection of drinks and snacks, and are quite expensive, though not extortionate. The seats are comfortable and generally offer a good view of the stage, but the grand circle is steeply banked and can be a little restrictive. 'The Alex' hosts a wide variety of quality shows at a varying range of prices, occasionally offering special deals which are always worth looking out for.

We sat in Row K seats 8- 10 ( back row) Dress circle, we had a uninterrupted View of the stage and easy access to Mens and Ladies toilets. It was a very hot day and The Theatre was full but I felt it was a manageable heat. I would definitely choose the same seats again. Staff as always were friendly and helpful. I can't wait for my next visit.

Been here lots of times to see one flew over the cuckoo nest, joe brown and lots of other shows. Seats are a bit bum numbing after a bit all shows planned well car parking by new street station train and bus links just outside the entrance disabled access available plus small lift a small bar bit expensive toilets not many small and cramped in all staff very friendly and helpful good work

A classic old theatre, and a fabulous show, and with the hospitality package with a reserved table in the lounge, 2 drinks crisps and ice cream it was a great night, seats in middle of row B topped it off. The Dubliners story told by part narration, part dialogue but musty their music, and an authentic bar setting (complete with realistic bartender) was topped by the fabulous energy of the cast.....despite the mature age of the lead character.

The Nashville show was excellent, the theatre is beautiful, staff are really great however they need to get draught beer instead of bottles, running out of cold beer from the fridge and passing them out of the packaging isn’t acceptable at prices charged!

We recently attended a performance of War Horse at The Alexandra and had a truly wonderful experience, thanks in no small part to the exceptional staff and thoughtful accessibility arrangements. One member of our group is a wheelchair user, and after reading the helpful guidance on the theatre’s website, I booked aisle seats as advised. From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel incredibly welcome. At the main entrance, we were greeted by Pete—proudly nicknamed "Batman" on his badge—which instantly brought a smile to our faces. Pete went out of his way to assist us, even radioing ahead for support. When staff were momentarily tied up, he personally escorted us to the accessible entrance around the corner. There, we were met by Ollie, who couldn't have been more helpful. He guided us to our seats and ensured the wheelchair was parked in a safe and convenient location, tucked out of the way but easily reachable. After the show, Ollie discreetly kept an eye on us and returned the wheelchair when we were ready to leave, making our exit smooth and stress-free. The service we received was genuinely above and beyond. Both Pete and Ollie were kind, proactive, and a credit to the theatre. We’ll absolutely be returning—and crossing our fingers that they're working that day!
