King's Theatre, Glasgow Review

Great venue, full of character and good service. You can feel the history of the Kings the moment you walk through the door.

**WARNING SOUND/TALKING IS VERY BAD. DISABILITY PROBLEMS***. Could not hear talking but could hear the songs. Was so disappointed with the sound. So went home disappointed. Other people were talking about the sound problem too.
Only wheelchairs can use lifts. Toilets on every floor but some have a far distance to get to.
Staff told me I could not use lifts unless it s we are using a wheelchair.. I have a problems with my hip & spinal & disc chronic pain. Walking too much can bring a flare up. I was at the show on Sunday 4th & I have a flare up & I have now got major pain. disability problems come in all shapes & sizes but u need to show ur disability to the staff with someone in a wheelchair before you can use the lift. I wished I used my crutches for my pain but I thought I could manage without them. But I still would not be aloud to use the lift even if I had my crutches. My family were walking me to the toilet then I had to go home....
I will never visit your theatre again. I was so disappointed. The staff were very nice & plesent & done your theatre proud. It s a shame that the rules & your regulations. Disability access distance to toilets are harder for Your disability.

Only bad thing is the seats are really small and the heat is unbearable

Went to see The Rolling Stones Story. Absolutely fantastic. Felt as though I was watching the real Stones. Would recommend this show. All the greatest songs.

Went to see Motown the Musical. Brilliant musical. Great seats. Lovely old theatre.

No sure about the theater...my first attempt to get tickets for a show is not great..my online order crashed 3 times..not sure if it got through and have been on-hold to ATG customer services for more than ten minutes...so I keeping myself busy filling in this review...so my evaluation, to put it politely, it is rubbish.

Abba mania was absolute low budget garbage. Avoid

Beautiful theatre experience but has tight seating as expected in a theatre of this age. Well worth a visit.

Very impressed by organisation. Staff were very friendly. Would go back without hesitation.

Went there for the annual pantomime. Charming city centre theatre that does need serious refurbishment. Seats are rather uncomfortable and ceiling needs a coat of brown paint. It would be a beautiful venue if a big bit of TLC was given. Very handy to access and above all the multi-storey car park is very closed and big enough.

They do lots of different films and comedys on stage

Went to watch Glasgow girls. What an amazing place, lovely atmosphere. A bit cold but that can't really be helped much!

On your feet
Superb don't miss it

Fabulous traditional Theatre with comfortable seats and great acoustics.

We to see Eddie Izzard and it was a great show, the venue was great but the seats are still not that comfortable if your six foot or over, but other than that a great night.

The seats very narrow, my son in law is 6ft 4ins and poor soul sat with his knees almost at his chin!! Also it was far too warm, I always feel the cold but it was roasting tonight, the sweat was pouring of me and it was uncomfortable! Everyone around us was fanning themselves with their programmes!!

Went to see the wonderful John Grant at Celtic Connections in a stunning old style music hall but the night was tarnished by the the treatment of a not so young, lone woman who dared to dance to Black Belt who was then bundled out roughly by two she bouncers. Audience around her protested and danced in support but to no avail - disgusting way to treat a gig goer, especially when you did not throw the many others who dared to enjoy themselves and have a dance. If you cannot deal with people dancing next to their own seat then don,t put on acts like John Grant!

Under refurbishment...noisy during show due to huge air conditioners .

Always great shows, great staff, comfortable seats, loads of parking nearby on street or multistorey, and plenty places nearby for dinner

A bit too hot at the back of the stalls. Uncomfortable for some. Seat comfy and good view.

Summer Holiday starring Ray Quin absolutely fantastic show .

What a production of My Fair Lady by PMOS. Top marks cast and the talented production team.

Meatloaf Story AMAZING EXCELLENT show. Fantastic cast no way to say how good this show was excellent audience participation and real appreciation shown to the cast. for all their hard work. WELL DESERVED STANDING OVATION

Always a good show, friendly atmosphere. Some upper seats are a bit cramped, but that's not unusual

Haven't been to a Panto in years. Went to see Aladdin today. Five Stars for Cast Performance, Production and All involved. Well done. Will certainly come back next year.

Superb service in the ambassador Lounge, well worth treating yourself. American Idiot musical was superb and a hugely talented cast. Superb!

Here to see GLOC' FIDDLER ON THE ROOF' Brilliant production, great cast, very enjoyable. A great night. Morven was brilliant!!!!!

Never seen a bad show at the kings , downside the seats defo not comfortable

The show, Rock of Ages, was superb. The staff were as always very helpful and friendly. The facilities were adequate and all in all we had a great experience.

We sat up the top gallery and could catch everything that was being said , also when the performance was at the front of the stage couldn't see all what was going on , the worst was the heat , if there was air conditioning we couldn't feel it , everyone was complaining about it , far too warm , very uncomfortable sitting in the small seats in that heat .

Went to see the fantastic production of Funny Girl on this occasion, superb!

Great seats on balcony. Not too many stairs to climb.

We were there for a panto. Had a great time beautiful old theatre

Grease the musical was most enjoyable, grand circle seats are very comfortable with an excellent view of all the action on stage

My favourite theatre right next to Charing Cross station and the Premier Inn. Lovely eaterie opposite the Premier Inn.

Very expensive and not much in the way of disabled facility's lots of stairs to get up to upper level no lift

We had cheap seats in the gallery where it was very hot and crowd a bit rowdy.

A fantastic old theatre, truly grand place to take in a show

Saw Roy Wood here last night, he was great, theatre staff were great, and to top it off , met Roy in the Griffin too!

Great theatre. Toilet facilities a bit tight and old vintage, but does not detract from wanting to spend time there seeing good shows. Drinks expensive at the small bar.

Brilliant production of Aladdin
Normal though to not fit in seat when you tall

Cosy venue which gives an up close feel to performances.

It was ancient! Good atmosphere, seats not fit for proper seating far too low.

The atmosphere ..the history but not very comfortable. ..

Just do not like its 2 cramped in up aw those 60 steps good ness thats some going 1 st time there will NOT b back

Went to see Motown Madness at the weekend. The show was absolutely fantastic. The Kings was not.
It looks grubby and dirty and in serious need of a facelift. The drinks were also flat and warm. We had a wheelchair user with us and at the end of the show audience members all stood up for the encore etc making our friend completely unable to see. I complained to the steward and got a shrug of her shoulders. Completely unacceptable. We missed the end of the show because of this which was really disappointing.

Needs Air Conditioning. Needs more Toilets in Building.

Outstanding my first taste of the theatre and absolutely loved it. I suffer from a disability and staff were great even checking in on me. All the staff were helpfull, The seats were tight and rather rigid but you get emersed into the stage so easily and theres more than one thing going on. Rock of ages was the show and it certainly was a well deserved standing ovation, I am a major film buff so this was totally diffrent. We will be back and highly recommend to anyone .

Always have good shows on plenty of disabled parking easy access to the motorway m8

Beautiful old building, great views from every seat.

Could not see past person sitting in front of me. Had to sit awkward to see half of stage only.

Classic theatre in Glasgow. Always a good experience here. Great panto this time starring elaine c smith and johnny 'I'm enjoying myself' mac. Since I was last visit there is a nice tribute to buttons himself. The one and only Gerrard kelly in the form of his boots on a plinth. Look forward to going back again soon!
