Cafe Eight

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.

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," a dramatically slight musical drama that worked best as an exercise in nostalgia. It was elevated by the wonderful performances of a talented ensemble cast. My afternoon went with a swing!

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!
