It was the first time I had been to a show here. What an amazing theatre! We took a class to see 80 days around the world, they were mesmerised, as was I! I will definitely be returning.

Staff were very pleasant, polite and helpful, but their tshirts are in desperate need of replacing. My seat was full of cat or dog hair, in desperate need of vacuuming. Theatre itself was clean and tidy. Drinks are expensive. A small coffee is tiny. When leaving we had to exit through a single door, which caused a major queue. There is a car park nearby with disabled parking and a lift available, but only on certain floors and it is expensive. There are some disabled parking spaces on the roads nearby. Not sure whether there are lifts in the theatre but to access your seats you have to use stairs unless sat on the front row. The play itself was very enjoyable. Didn't use the toilets, so unable to comment on those.

Fantastic! Watched the Jeeves and Wooster production and it was simply brilliant. Laugh out loud funny. The set was amazing, superb acting especially as there were only 3 actors!

This is a lovely intimate entertaining space. I particularly liked the steep angle of the seating as it meant you had a clear view of the performance area from every seat, no twisting around to see between the people infront of you.The acoustics were great too. It was so refreshing to hear voices and guitars without being overpowered by over amped sound systems.I'd definitely be interested in coming to another performance especially if its as good as the Book Ends doing the Simon and Garfunkel through the years tour.

Had a meal before going to see 'Perfect Nonsense', a PG Wodehouse Jeeves & Wooster play.The food and service was very good. The Octagon is a really friendly place to be.The play was sensational. Absolutely hilarious. The three actors worked their socks off to produce one of the funniest nights I've ever been to. Get there if you can.

A fabulous theatre to go and see productions, pretty much all the seats give a full view, won't spoil the performance in any way. With enough bars for pre drinks and able to pre order at half time and reasonably priced. Ladies have a bit if a queue for the bathroom at peak times, gents OK. Now with a restaurant on the ground floor, have yet to try for the food.

My first visit to the Bolton Octagon Theatre and I will be back! It's an intimate and comfortable space and the staff are helpful and polite.I was here to see Blonde Bombshells of 1943

Love the Octagon- staff and volunteers are lovely and the venue is perfect for shows. I go about every 6-8weeks and look forward to it. Real mix of shows but I try everything, opens your eyes to new productions and actors.

Theatre in the round. Innovative and clever use of space and props. Uniquely close to the stage. Uninterrupted views wherever you sit.Around the world in 80 days was a witty and highly entertaining show by very talented singers and actors. Enthralling and funny.All the staff in the theatre are extremely friendly and in the modern cafe bar.I look forward to visiting again.
