Great theatre! I just been here recently to watch the girl on the train (great show), and liked the atmosphere and layout. Will come back here again for sure 👍

Lovely comfortable venue. Nice bar. There are a lot of stairs to the balcony and its a twisty walk! but there are no bad seats.

Attended the Wrong Jovi gig 29/3/24, beautiful cosy venue and the best tribute band I've seen, the closest to the real thing you'd ever come across and a big shout out to seanie who was very helpful with a situation.

I have no complaints about this theater. Saw a Christmas Panto here with the family and it was a lovely little theater. It feels intimate, but I didn’t feel like it was too tight.

Recently we went to see “Waiting for Godot” at the Everyman. It was a great night and an amazing performance. The Everyman theatre has a Victorian style. It’s one of the oldest building in cork (it was built in 1840). I loved the ceiling! The staff were very helpful, smiling and greetin when we arrived and when we left. Really worth a visit!
