Fantastic modern theatre, spacious, plenty of places to eat and drink . Great location in the city centre with a huge car park next door. We've seen about 10 different productions now and have never been disappointed yet.

Excellent regional theatre - has to be one of the UK very best!
Staff always friendly. Excellent and quick bar service pre and interval shows.
The venue is modern so seats comfortable and good views everywhere.
Some brilliant dramas and musical performances over the years. Good value to see often West End and high quality touring shows locally.

Really bright and friendly venue. Bright colours with pictures of past shows on the wall. You are literally surrounded in theatre. Comfortable seats with plenty of room and great view of stage. Saw Evita.

Excellent regional theatre, comfortable seats with plenty of legroom. Always produce some of the best shows around. Lovely helpful staff and the theatre itself is a work of art. Worth the long drive there and back every time!

Been to this theatre 25 times over the years, as its our local main stream theatre from where we live in Hinckley & it puts on the shows that appeals to us. The staff are friendly and helpful. The theatre is well cared for & is the most modern one we visit. We will visit this theatre 3 times in 2024.

Visited last night to watch my beautiful laundrette, great production in the studio. Few beers and a bite to eat. Lovely evening. Only down side, was the filthy state of the NCP car park next door. Several homeless people milling about. Disgusting state.

The Curve Theatre impresses from the outside....until you get right up close to it. I can think of no other modern theatre I have visited where the entrance and exit are so unlovely and uninviting. The street dining area - for the brave souls who wish to have a coffee outside whilst fending off beggars - is tiny and in shadow, which surely defeats the purpose.
By contrast, the inside bar, cafe, and waiting areas are well thought through. There is a wonderful sense of space that is almost cathedral-like in its impact. There is, however, insufficient seating for the numbers seeking it. Given the age(ing) profile of most theatre going audiences in the UK, this is no small matter.
The staff here were unfailingly polite and helpful (which feels like a bonus in these 'post service' times). The toilets, when I used them, were clean and well maintained (which is a definite bonus).
The main auditorium itself is an impressive modern theatre going space with comfortable seats and plenty of leg room (everything that Frank Matcham theatres aren't).
I was here to see "The Book Thief," a brave, powerfully emotive, but relentlessly downbeat, new musical. The staging was drab and spare. The lighting, harsh and sepia. But what unfolded was engaging and enriching. The setting of this musical was historical, but it felt current. Words are still being stolen from us and used against others in ways that should always shock and repel.

Great place, DeMontfort University use this venue for their graduation events. Its a fantastic venue, really well organised.

Attended a performance by the Jamaican National Dance Theatre Company. The theatre has a bar, cafe and toilets that are accessible. The leg room in the theatre is suitable for someone of medium height as I am 5ft 9 in and was uncomfortable.

Had an incredible time watching heathers at the curve theatre. The theatre is beautiful with really comfy seats and despite our seats being near the edge of our row we still had a brilliant view. There’s no bad seats! The tour cast of heathers really are amazing- would 100% recommend you try to catch it before the tour ends!
