Beckman Unicorn at The Vaudeville Theatre Review

A beautiful theatre let down by an impolite, tutting usher. What's more, I caught her moaning about us to her colleague. Drama on and off the stage at its best. All staff bar Jacqueline were great.

Old building, small venue, small theatre, cramped toilets and while I'm sure there's wheelchair access, at least to the ground floor, it's certainly not easy. All of that means less if the performance is good. I saw Mo Gilligan and wasn't disappointed

Typical, somewhat old-fashioned but solid London theater, just good entertainment.

Lovely little theatre. Magic show goes wrong super see it if you can

Lovely small theatre. Oscar Wilde's 'woman of no importance' was excellent. Cast superb.

if you are looking for a good laugh or a good play to see, then, this theatre is just great.

Door staff were extremely rude to me today, laughed at me when I tried to show them my bag. Then continued laughing and grinning at me while I was inside to pick up my ticket.
One of them even came in after me to ridicule me for not seeing there was a second window for picking up tickets that was blocked by other customers.
I really don t feel like going to a theatre that employs such staff.

First time seeing a play here. Absolutely lovely little theatre. Staff were great, smiley, friendly and chatty. View from our seats - Row M 10 and 11 was perfect. The play was Magic Goes Wrong. Very enjoyable with some great laugh out loud moments.

The Vaudeville Theatre is one if London's best theatres. Not too large and ideal for plays and small musicals. A lovely theatre with excellent sightlines from all seats.

Saw Wilde Creatures - touching, funny and very clever. Lovely afternoon spent at a beautiful theatre.

fun quirky shows at this theatre. always enjoy any production here

Feels like a student theatre, very dated, which is a shame because the performance was excellent.

Went to this great little theatre to see the Emilia. Absolutely brilliant evening. Superb cast of actress who performed the play to perfection. Stage set was excellent too. A must see, will be recommending it to everyone.

Worked here and watched shows here over the years. They do great stuff and the staff are really great .

Went to watch the show Emilia. Great show and atmosphere

A rather small theatre with what seems like quite a long overhang from the circle over the stalls. The view from my seat near the front of the stalls - B10 was very good however, a reasonable amount of leg room and I didn't notice distractions at the side of stage.

Decent venue. Seats a little cramped for those with longer legs (can only speak for grand circle) but view was pretty good as seats are steep enough to not be affected by tall people in front. Easy to get to from Charing Cross.

A well design theatre, great views of the stage, a bit crowded around the entrance but otherwise wonderful.

Great venue. A Woman of no Importance brilliant and very funny.

Really enjoyed our visit here-- a nice, smaller indie theatre. Because of the depth of the stage even the balcony seats seem to have a great view, so tickets are good value for money. Toilets are easily accessible and refreshments from the bar are decent. They also book a tasteful selection of shows (think tragicomedy / raw depiction of social norms). Would recommend!

The main building is a little bit tired and the facilities would benefit from upgrading however the production we saw, A Woman of No Importance, was superb! A very good cast and a well performed play.

Stepping Out. Absolutely brilliant. Natalie Casey's comic timing is superb. I love that she throws herself into a role and doesn't care what faces she pulls or how she looks. She's beautifully funny and touchingly warm in this. Amanda Holden also great as was Obermans stand in. Thoroughly enjoyed it and Michael on the box office was super cheery too..x

Very nice theatre, great seats and an absolutely fantastic show. Magic Goes Wrong, thoroughly recommended.

Lovely old theatre. Went on two consecutive Saturday afternoons. Going again soon.

Nice theatre but seats very tight.. Cramp by 2nd act!

Nice little theatre, been here for Micheif theatre's go wrong plays.

Mens toilets have no cubicles, just piddle sinks so dont go holding until you arrive if you need to sit down!

Intimate theatre with no bad seats and decent legroom. Seating in the stalls is relatively flat though, so beware tall people wearing big hats in the audience. The stage is raised enough to allow for a clear view for most.
Unusually, opera glasses are available from row O in the stalls - despite the stage only being around 30-40 feet away. Handy if you forget your glasses I guess, but otherwise feels like an odd addition!

Lovely old London theatre, full of character and charm.

One of the West End's smaller theatres but despite the squish at the bar and in the toilets it's a happy theatre with great staff and a regular carousel of shows. The seating is well-designed to give a good view. Front row of the circle is probably the best spot. Box seats are a better view than in many of the older theatres.

A wonderful small, cozy theater. Went to the production of True West with Keith Harington and Johnny Flynn. Excellent staging and acting. I was very happy and happy. The staff was friendly and organized.
I recommend to visit.

I watched True West and the theatre is smaller than some but seats well spaced.

Saw The Gruffalo here. Lovely theatre - had a great time. Lots of stairs though so avoid bringing a pram unless you wish to put it in the upstairs buggy park.

Enjoyed my visit here , the theatre is dated looking inside but tbh this adds to the fun of the visit

Intimate seating, good acoustics, easy to get to, friendly staff

What a great little theatre. We watched Oscar Wilde here and really enjoyed it. Good views, though drinks a little pricey, but not completely unexpected for London.

Loved the Importance of being Earnest but Lady Bracknell didn't give the 'handbag' line with the same bizazze as Dame Edith Evans. It was pretty well lost

I saw Amanda Holden in the show "Stepping Out" at the Vaudeville.

Enjoyed every minute. True West was funny yet serious rivals between the 2 brothers, which was acted Brill by both actors.

Brilliant place. Intimate theatre with helpful and humour staff

Great theatre! I saw Emilia and absolutely loved it!

Lovely little theatre. I sat in the circle and had a good view of the stage

The theatre is comfortable and attractive. The new play Emilia is outstanding.

Recently visited the vaudeville theatre to see the show grown ups. Was a thoughrally enjoyable evening. The theatre is nice, as with all older theatres the seating is a little tight, not much in the way of leg room. Our seats were in the grand circle so not sure if this was the case for all but the view was stil very good.

Saw the importance of being earnest, absolutely brilliant and hilarious! Well worth a watch

Went to see the magic that goes wrong. It was the best show I've seen on London. Laughing from start to finish. Those performers really put in a shift.

Easy to locate, all staff were pleasant and welcoming, good view. Great show "when magic goes wrong". All told a great night out.

A lovely little theatre. We have been a few times to see the Oscar Wilde plays that are on at the moment. The first floor bar is picturesque. I preferred the seating in the dress circle to the grand circle but still a good view from right up at the top!

What a lovely and welcoming little theatre! We recently saw True West and even though we were in the cheap "restricted view" seats we could still see everything pretty well.

Gorgeous little theatre showing some great performances.

A small theatre that can be challenging for those with longer legs. But everything put on here is worth seeing.

I have just had one of the best nights at the theatre ever. I Am Emilia was fantastic. The Vaudeville itself is really well designed for the audience, very good, unimpeded views from the dress circle.

Have seen Magic Goes Wrong and Groan Ups here; both very funny and from the same wonderful theatre company as The Play That Goes Wrong.
Very good view even from outer aisle seats in the dress circle.
Pretty theatre though some in the West End are more impressive. Cute bar with some seating opportunities and decent selection of snacks. Ice cream was also available during the interval.
Convenient location, so close to Trafalgar Square and all the night busses etc.

A lovely theatre went to Magic that went wrong and amazing show a must see for all

Very nice theater, the ticket taker acted like she was a cop the way she policed the audience.

Lovely old theatre. Lots of leg room, good view of the stage but like many theatres gets warm when full.

4.5 stars for the theatre
The show though was not very adapted for a romantic date.

Wonderful intimate theatre - great atmosphere and acoustics. Fantastic production of Lady Windermere's Fan directed by the genius Kathy Burke & starring the fabulous Jennifer Saunders

Beautiful theatre, comfortable seats, great show.

One of the more comfortable West End theatres. A few minutes walk from Charing Cross so good transport links. Overall a very good place for a theatre visit.
