Baxter Theatre Reviews

Every time I go I fall in love with the tangebleness of a live performance

The shopping centre its so beautiful both the outlook,nd the insider

Went to see Aunty Merle, it is a girl. Show was really entertaining and very funny. Always pleasant to visit the Baxter.

Had a very good evening. The long queues during interval can perhaps be improved.

Enjoyed the show.the singing and cast was amazing.lots of laughter.

UCT SACOM have their concerts at Baxter
What a joy to watch the new up and coming
Musos

Great shows here! Well worth a visit if you get the chance.

Such a wonderful show by David Kramer and music by Taliep Petersen

Wonderful evening full of laughs from the beginning to the end highly recommended

Went to go see the show Aunty Merl it's a Girl. Great show! Great Venue.

Cape Town institution does theatre. Associated with the University of Cape Town, this theatre complex attracts world class productions. While probably the second largest theatre complex in Cape Town, it is quite intimate on global scales. But well maintained, great space and of course it s iconic orange roof domes are worth a few pics!

Excellent theatre venue with free off-road parking, restaurant and bar facilities located in Rondebosch.

Danger in the Dark Musical at Baxter Theatre was very relevant, Amazing!! A must see.

I loved the theatre the food was disappointing, no scones how come. Truly not cool. The theatre was clean and spotless

Well ventilated, set designs are pretty good , well trained staff - needs a computicket outlet

Beautiful lobby! The theatres are so well equipped!

always a treat visiting the Baxter. if you intend to eat at the restaurant be warned it only serves vegetarian dishes but still worth a visit!

Lovely venue. Went to see a local play Anty Merle...hilarious....
Also , a nice way to spend the evening prior to seeing the play is eating at their local diner.
Great way to spend an evening out being entertained.

Excellent show by Mark Lottering in Aunty Merle's Musical. Great cast and most entertaining show. Merle is a legend!

I usually enjoy shows at the Baxter but had to drop my rating as the last show was spoilt by the constant crunching of popcorn and crinkling of the giant popcorn packet that it came in. Please stop selling popcorn in packets or dont sell them at all. We not at the movies.

Much needed comic relief with some extremely funny comedians.

The Baxter Theatre remains the place to go for leading ideas in creative arts.

Great vibe.
Affordable prices.
Stunning performances.

Really enjoyed a night at the Baxter Theatre. Loads of laughter, wonderful comedy by Nick Rabinawitz, highly recommended.

Great venue, friendly staff and ample parking just above the venue. Three different theatre options for various genre. Bar available with wide variety of beverages. Restaurant caters for theatre patrons pre show. Been an institution for at least 35 years.

A lovely atmosphere.We attended an excellent show of Marc Lottering and enjoyed every second of it.

It was amazing and the show! Wow it was a showstopper. I loved everything minute of it. The atmosphere was absolutely great.

Baxter lacking 'real theatre' atmosphere. No soft lounging area for pre or post theatre drinks. No relaxing theatre music or even waiters to serve upon patron. Needs a shake up.

It's mostly the shows that make it but if I had to choose I'd choose Baxter first every time

A great place for shows and entertainment! Marc Lottering was superb as ever, even after 21 years he still mesmerised his audience!

Brilliant show(Burn the Floor), very comfortable seats, bar service atad slow

I was literally in stitches and couldn't stop crying. It was really good.

The restaurant serves an excellent vegetable curry special

I had a lovely evening with Topdog, Nama Jazz session. Loved it. Staff at Baxter always friendly.

Aunty Merle Its a girl is a wonderful musical Be warned its almost 3 hours long including the interval Baxter theatre is one of those places where U just keep going to 5 star entertainment

What a beautiful venue! Thoroughly enjoyed the evening

Always good shows to watch to suit any mood. Bar available pre and post show. Also a lovely little restaurant in the complex.

Amazing ambiance, seating comfortable and always a great line up of shows.

Always been a very homely theatrical venue. The meeting of friends and family in the foyer was always a great socializing area. Imagine the shock arriving last night for the symphony concert to find all the tables and chairs removed and replaced with sofas and arm chairs, I might add this furniture was very,very uncomfortable, nowhere to place your drink as the little round table was difficult to reach. I noted a number of people using the armchair rest to try and balance a glass or bottle. Do not think this lounge furniture will last very long in this very busy socializing area. Seating with this new set up is extremely limited. I certainly hope management will soon realise this new furniture is a no,no and replace with the old furniture, was not always comfortable but at least you could get a seat and a table to place your glass on bottle on. Last nights UCT Symphony concert was absolutely wonderful.

Brilliant acting....John Maythem.
Staff at theater very pleasant and professional. Was a lovely outing.

Love that this Theatre is so well patronized.. The Mark Lottering show was most enjoyable. He really plays to his audience!

We went to Jive funny festival show really a laugh a minute great show

Our indian meal was fragrant, delicious and tasted authentic. Service was cheerful.

Aunty Merle Musical. Amazing! Awesome! THE BEST! A big thank you Mark Lottering and cast

Had a lovely time in the concert room listening to Voices For Christ.

Nostalgic theatre centre with so many great shows at any given time. Highly recommended for a night out

Had an awesome time with Aunty Merle and family!! Very Good show!! HILARIOUS!!

This well known establishment hosts some super talented and amazing local and international artists. Through out any and all Arts genre

Although records showed show sold out, we found after that there were spaces vacant. Disappointmwnt.
