Theatre is small, which is great for new comedy acts. The two bars can deal with the numbers of people attending. However, the toilets definitely need improvement.

It's a tale of two eras, a lovely and very old theatre full of nostalgia and a very modern front of house.

Fantastic show by Welsh National Ballet. Would like to see more of them. My wheelchair bound husband was looked after very well and the whole evening was brilliant for us because of it. Couldn’t be bettered

I escorted an elder to see 'Oh What A Lovely War'. Not only was the production EXCELLENT but the theatre staff could not have been more accommodating to ensure my companion was given every consideration. A bonus was I could also see the production on a carers ticket, this was sincerely appreciated and I wish more venues would do the same. Thank you.

Lovely theatre, compact but stage visible wherever you sit****. Winchester council are absolutely rubbish with their car parking restrictions. They really do not want people to come into the city earlier in the day (to eat and spend money in the local businesses) THEATRE ROYAL *****. WINCHESTER COUNCIL ☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️

We went to see The Wizard of Oz in December 2022 and it was lovely. We always go to the Winchester theatre for the panto experience and it never disappoints.

A great local theatre showing a diverse range of stage events. Always feel connected to the performance due it's smaller size. I prefer to sit towards the back of the stalls particularly for dance events, as it addords a better view in my opinion.

We watch The Wizard of Oz Pantomime. Staff were very friendly. Kids got a Jude’s ice cream tub each at interval (£3 each). Think mine started getting fidgety towards the end but it was 50 min (15 min interval) 50 mins - so about 2 hours total….. Actors were very good - funny and good at getting the crowd involved in the show. Leg room was fine for sitting down but very hard to pass people at interval or to get out to the loo!

My first ever theatre vista, and we watched graffiti Classics, they were excellent, the theatre is very nice, and has a historic feel in the auditorium, highly recommended, and we will be back

Nice theatre, not massive but comfortable. Some great shows, saw The Reduced Shakespeare Complete Works of Shakespeare (abridged) today which was excellent and very funny.

The theatre is quite simply, stunning. The building has a lot of history dating back to the 19th century starting life as a hotel and then later beautifully transformed. Today it is very well kept, clean, tidy and accessible for all. They even have a lift to the upper seating areas. The staff are amazing and will do all that they can to help make your visit an enjoyable experience. There is nothing negative I can say about Winchester's Theatre Royal

A fantastic cine-theatre showing incredible productions from ballet to opera to cinema. The architecture is truly stunning and the acoustics superb. The staff are friendly and welcoming. Well worth a visit if you are in Winchester.
