chorley little theatre

HamersleyMob

I've had the good fortune to visit this little beauty a couple of times to see amateur (only in name) productions and have been very impressed. A proper theatre with about 100 comfortable seats, nice proscenium arch stage and roomy bar with a good selection of drinks. Car parking opposite makes this also very handy. The productions I have seen have been of an excellent standard and deserve a wider audience - although the numbers were good on the night giving a 'proper' atmosphere. I know that quite well known acts appear here and rightly so - I must see one of these soon, but the CADOS productions that I saw were excellent in their own right and by no means a pale imitation. All in all, a great night, very reasonably priced which exceeded my expectations.

I wish I had found out about this quaint, warm little theatre years ago !I visited this theatre recently and was pleasantly surprised. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. The event I attended had unreserved seating, so if people attending an event booked their tickets at different times, you could still all sit together. The venue was warm and well lit. There was a nice little bar area with half a dozen tables with 4 or 5 seats around them. There were also bar stools and a bar shelf right along the back of the bar area. The drinking vessels were plastic, but the advantage of that was that you could take your drinks with you into the auditorium. It was even possible to pre-order drinks for the interval to save yourself queueing needlessly.The theatre shows matinee films at a very reasonable £2.50 for those who work shifts, or who have free time during the day. All in all, it was a lovely experience visiting this theatre - such a warm, friendly, intimate atmosphere - I would fully recommend it to anyone.

This theatre is great. Small and quaint with a lovely atmosphere and lovely volunteers who run it. We went to see a couple of comedians and had a great night. We will definitely be going again.

The script is very funny, the acting is excellent, amazing sideways scenery, a great night out, free parking. Sweet trolley well stocked. Locally made Fredericks ice creams at the interval.

We visited Chorley Little Theatre last night to see Chris Ramsey. I reserved the tickets over the phone and collected them on the night. I am in a wheelchair and we were sat at the front. There wasn't that much room but enough. It is an old theatre but very nice. It was very easy to get to. We put the postcode into the sat nav and it took us straight there. There is a car park opposite the theatre and it has ample spaces. The staff were lovely and very accommodating. Would go back there again.

Great shows and pantos year in, year out. The theatre also hosts films on occasion, a true asset to chorley.

I have been many times to plays performed there. I love the theatre and the fact that it is run by volunteers. The actors are so committed to producing good productions. The only down side is that they need to wear individual microphones at each production as some of us have hearing problems.I love this venue.

We attend two or three times a year and just love it. The productions are invariably very good and it's an inexpensive night out.

I bought my partner tickets to see Richard Henning, although we live not too far away it is not a place we have ever been. A lovely traditional establishment with old fashioned friendliness and excellent bar and an intimate performance space. We loved it!

Fantastic little theatre, well equipped and run by volunteers. I've twice been to the youth theatre and the productions are fantastic. Proper bar that's not overpriced in the heart of town, why head to the city, it's all happening in Chorley.

Seen various 39 steps films many times but was surprised and delighted at the comedy in the stage play. A fabulous show overall and the train scene was brilliant. Great comedy acting, well directed with simple but effective staging. A great night out.

This is a theatre of which Chorley residents should be very proud. They put on a wide variety of shows, to suit all tastes,often plays that are quite complex to stage. Their staging of the comedy version of The 39 steps, earlier this year, was superb. There is also an excellent Youth Theatre.

First visit to Chorley Little Theatre, very impressed.Went to see 'Little Shop Of Horrors', there were entertainers keeping people amused before the show started, the acting and show was on par with a professional production costing ten times as much. Fab night out !The drinks, snacks and ice cream are all reasonably priced, no rip offs here !Will definitely return...
