King's Theatre, Glasgow Review

Staff are always friendly and helpful. Seats are comfy

The show was 10/10 but the venue (Galleries) was cramped, claustrophobic and excessively hot. A truly horrible experience not only for us but also for the dozens of people queuing to get outside at the break to leave. Such a shame that a great show was ruined by a building that clearly isn't fit for today's standards.

My legs are still sore with being crammed into the most ridiculously small space.

I went to see "The play that goes wrong." Which was hilarious.
The theatre itself is stunning. I was sat in the stalls and had plenty of leg room (I'm 5' 10").
The seat was comfortable. Loo's where clean and tidy.
Prices of food and drink are quite expensive, but are what you would expect from a theatre or cinema.

The theatre really needs to invest in air conditioning it was like a green house

Swan Lake was outstanding. Love the change to male dancers! Nice..... The music and outfits were also superb.

Had a fantastic evening seeing the production of CATS... A wonderful venue...will definitely be booking up for another show soon

Allways a good night out just a bit hot inside but better than being frozen I suppose

Fantastic. The only thing that let's it down is prices of snacks and drinks.

Fantastic evening. Staff helpful and friendly. Brilliant show tonight.

It's a beautiful building, inside and out. The ATG booking fees are ridiculously expensive in comparison to other ticket providers. They do put on many good shows but it becomes a very expensive hobby of you're going quite often!

Nice old theater. Could do with some TLC. Chairs retro but uncomfortable and really close together. Entrance and exit smoothly. Old glory that could do with an update but still ok

Great afternoon out at the Kings. Glasgow Girls was fantastic!

The show and sound was fantastic and the theatre still has s lot of charm. I do think it might be time for a bit of an overhaul as the bar is small to the point of inadequacy and the upper "poor man" seats barely fit even the smallest adult.

Can't be afraid of hights and have long legs when you're sitting on the upper balcony

Just been to another amazing show in the Kings. The theatre is a grand old lady who is a wee bit tarnished but still a pleasure to visit. Staff are helpful and friendly and with the addition of drink and snacks to your seat it's even easier to sit back and enjoy the show. Great atmosphere and good value.

Up in the gallery coming back from the toilet stairs far to steep hurted my leg coming back down them in the dark plus you couldn't hear them on the stage when they were talking on loud enough

Love this theatre ,in my opinion the ice creams & drinks cost a fortune

Staff at bar and in and around theatre just lovely. Thanks

We saw Snow White on Chridtmas Eve.
Have to say think it's one of the best so far & we go every Christmas Eve.
Usually have the following year's panto book, but not received an email to book the next one,nor can find it on website.
Please hurry Kings & tell me when 2016 panto is ready to book. This is our family tradition.
Thankyou

Great Panto, but pricey for the drinks snacks and add ons

Shows are great but teatre sits are so narrow that it is imposible to cross your legs. Rather pay more and be confortable.

Went to End of the Rainbow on Sat 30th April with my mum and daughter. It was the worst musical we have ever been to. The language was disgusting and it was depressing. We go to musicals to be entertained and come out feeling good but this musical made us angry and depressed.

Entire clan visited for the pantomime. Venue and show were excellent

Beautiful old building, both outside and inside richly ornately decorated, showing some wear in places but this just adds character.. In the small bar, the walls are covered with photographs of long passed famous actors. The acoustics are excellent , and the atmosphere wonderful, love this theatre , a step back in time, join the ghosts from past.

Always love a night at the King's. Besides the show I'm attending, it's like a trip back in time with the charming interiors. Great atmosphere.

Great iconic venue
Dirty dancing was a hoot

Good venue for a show but drink fiasco goes on. Expensive and mixed up orders.

Always a great venue for a show, maybe decor is a touch dated but the original features are beautiful

Great atmosphere for the panto and super friendly staff.

Fantastic performance of Grease. Well done the Lyric Theatre performers. Every one a star.

Saw the lady in black. The venue itself is great, however the seating in the upper ring has very little leg room.

We used to go here with my husband. I love such places for the atmosphere, and for that it makes a date so special

Fantastic theatre venue, had a brilliant night at the panto with the family.

Fantastic show The Dolls dragged up 5/5.Points deducted for the venue terrible for people with restricted mobility, no lift and stairs badly lit and very dangerous!!

Went to the Pantomime at Kings Theatre and as always it was fun for all. If you have never been you do not know what you are missing. Panto at Kings has an excellent cast with reasonable prices and good views throughout

Lots of stairs and expensive drinks and not enough toilets . But apart from that a great show and nice staff

Old run down theatre, smell musty and the toilets are available disgrace, always running out of water. The bar never has any ice or half of the drinks

The show was great but the place is looking a bit tired & dated

The whole place is a little run down and could do with a good clean and lick of paint. Seats on the upper circle do not give much leg room at all.

Even still, always an enjoyable evening to be had at this Glasgow stalwart.

Great for a night out. Bit dear on the drinks, but doesn't stop you for having a great night out

Was so disappointed on Friday night after looking forward to Dirty Dancing my all time favourite film.
The behaviour of other people , foul language, and drunken antics and smoking ruined our night out .
They were totally out of order and the chaos they caused upset a lot of people.
The theatre was far too hot as well which only added to spoiling what had started out as a lovely day out in Glasgow with my friends.
The security staff were unable to control the crowd , bar staff sold alcohol to people who already had far too much to drink !!!
Will be a long time before we venture back which is a shame , as we really enjoy going to the theatre and visit it quite often.

Annie was excellent very talented children and Anita Dobson was very good too

Please people don't put those dirty trotters on seat backs,and stop jabbering away, like seriously!

Every show I've been to is amazing, very high standard witheld

Always a brilliant experience always,Always fantastic shows

We just love the king's. The character and the ambiance of this theatre is wonderful. Would not fancy being up in the Gods though, too high for us.

Saw Aladdin starring Elaine C Smith, fantastic. Fab venue though pricey for kids snacks. Well worth a visit though.

Nice building seats comfortable enough staff helpfull all in all decent glasgow venue

The show was absolutely amazing. We went through 3 entrances and up 2 flights of stairs before we found our seats though as instructions were very unclear. One very nice attendant let us through a staff only door to save time, however another attendant was very snippy because the show was about to start. We would have been on time if it wasn't for the entrance confusion.

Visited to listen to Adele's songbook. Really lovely performance!

What to say .... had a great time watching Rock of Ages the cast were great before I went people were saying Kevin Clifton will be great well he was good but really the rest of the cast were just brilliant. It was good to see old( Curly Watts ) who held his own against the rest. All in all it was a great show and we'll worth a watch if it comes down your way.

Fantastic panto plus all staff very helpful and obliging especially to disabled patrons.

panto was great go back next year. only thing the drink prices are a over the top.

Nice theatre
I have seen lots of good productions here.
