Marlowe Theatre Review

Never been here before, dinner was fantastic so was the staff. The other staff outside the restaurant was friendly and helpful

Seems to appear out of nowhere. Lovely theatre, friendly and comfy seats.

Show excellent. Staff friendly. Getting out of auditorium very congested. Wouldn't like to do it in emergency.

Fantastic modern accessible theatre. Easy to get in and out.

Just seen Blood brother's, it was a fantastic show in a fantastic venue.

I love the Marlowe,
but your website is horrendous, I can never book tickets from it, it's so frustrating.

Good performance and general great atmosphere. One issue - child height raiser blocks ran out quickly and the toys/food were highly overpriced.

Philharmonia excellent as usual. Environment could have been better thought out as concert hall, and a place to relax and have pre-performance drink.

Cast clearly worked extremely hard. But whole experience was spoilt by over amplification of sound. To the extent that I suffered with TTS fir 3days after the performance. Suggest earplugs in future if visiting this venue.

Brilliant night out as usual at this place went to see Saturday Night Fever

Very good Entertainment from start to Finish really enjoyed it and the Staff were Brilliant very Helpfull me being Disabled it was much appreciated so a very Big Thank you Kind Regards Mr Mrs Bennett

Very nice theatre and some great shows and a lot less than London prices.

My friend and I travel up from Greastone and Ashford. Finding a parking space was horrendous, but having done that the 60,s evening was all that we expected. I was really impressed by The New Amen Corner who were not only brilliant on their own but their backing of the searchers and Manfred man was out of this world. Harmony was terrific. I would appreciate knowing where their own tour is going. Brilliant evening.

Have sent 2 emails over the last 8 weeks trying to get information relating to Mama Mia being pushed back till September 2022. Have received no update or reply from the Marlowe or offer to return the costs of the seats which were paid in full. Very poor communications, in fact none period.

Went to see Annie, Great show the seats we had were pretty good. I'm 6'1 and to seat for the show in comfort wasn't a problem. I must admit same as all theatres drinks and snacks are way over priced.

Blood brothers was excellent. The Marlow is a very nice theatre with helpful staff.

Great theatre. I like to sit up in the gods. Own bar and toilets up there with no queuing. Easy access with the lift. Good variety of shows in the heart of Canterbury.

Lovely theatre, more room than the London theatres, and shows are every bit as good

As always, an excellent theatre with a wide range of shows. Last week we listened to classical music, in a weeks time it'll be the Warhorse stage show. Can also recommend the on-site restaurant The Green Room.

We have visited this theatre many times and seen a variety of shows. They are always well presented. Some side seats can have a limited view but almost all of the others have great views of the stage.

Always enjoyable to go to this theatre. Nice seats, prices generally are decent depending on what you're seeing. Decent offering of ice cream and alcohol during the intermissions.

Great show as always, however as the hottest day so far today the air conditioning wasn't quite up to the job at times. The cast were all superb and those voices. .just incredible. .well done guys, amazing

We had seats high up and sound was poor.....some friends who visited the following day for the same show who had seats in the 3rd row said similar

Modern building in an ancient city! The cafe with great views of the cathedral and the canal with boats!

Great theatre...Saw a musical called Avenue Q.... place was packed, but it dudnt feel that way.

Saw James Acaster here. He was rubbish. Rambling, apathetic and seemingly couldn't wait to leave. The supporting acts Ivo Graham, Desiree Burch, even the compere, were far better.

The pantomime is always a winner. A fantastic show.

Best panto ever!! Great seating all around too. So many positives.

Well appointed regional theatre, nice welcoming appearance and great auditorium. Polite and helpful staff.

We had an excellent experience at the Marlowe Theatre tonight, we were there to see Ghost Stories. From the moment we entered the staff were engaging and ready to help superb service. The seating is comfortable with plenty of leg room sitting in the stalls, the seats are staggered so you get a good view of the stage without the person in front blocking your view. We didn't use the bar which was busy but looked well staffed. The toilets were clean and tidy. An amazing visit which makes us want to return in the furure.

Great service and great food. Best to book in advance.

Really nice and friendly, food before show good value 12.95 for three courses , a smaller theater but still plenty of room

Not the best legroom out there, but but brilliantly staggered seating, so great for taking children

Lovely theatre, unfortunately seats are not the most comfortable.

It is a wonderful theatre, and the food at the Marlowe was excellent had roast lamb and Mediterranean vegetables and them a lemon sweet.

Always the best panto here! We go every year; it's the laaawww!

Great theatre, fantastic shows at affordable prices

The panto was amazing. Thank you .channel and Choices . Our Fostering team . For all the lovely gifts . You have share with us . Hard working . Fun . & laughter the moments and memory's will stay in the heart of our young folk. Us too. Time we can play like big kids again. All the best. To the actors and the Marlow. For sharing laughter . And joy to us every year. Xx

Great venue
Staff are always friendly and ready to help whenever and wherever they can

Lovely theatre, shame about the seats, theres not enough leg room between rows which made sitting for long periods (your watching shows!) very uncomfortable for me, less rows would have solved this but obviously = less revenue, I would advise booking an aisle seat, if your above 5", which I do now so I can sit comfortably and enjoy this lovely place

Brilliant theatre, great shows and the yearly Panto is amazing

Check out the Acting company! Great people and wonderful activities. They are so personable and fun!

The show was fantastic always good show here love it

Very good evening being entertained by Jools Holland and his Rythm & Blues Orchestra, we thoroughly enjoyed it.

No matter where you are seated in this theatre the view of the stage is good. We have sat in the stalls circle and upper circle.

Gorgeous stage, saw the alternative comedy show here really funny. Good night out.

Great shows. Loved Horrible History. Took my Granddaughter. Blew her away.

Following the renovation the Marlow theatre is now a quality venue for entertainment.

Went to see Peter pan,the synchronised swimming was amazingly funny and all the mishaps were just brilliant.

We both enjoyed the Marlowe very much last night good show good Mill great night out. Back again week Monday The Searchers Farewell

Great entertainment and halarious jokes for all ages

Modern and well appointed, in a riverside location. Parking in various locations nearby, all approximately a 10 minute walk away. Has a good variety of shows. Watch out for the upper balcony if you sit on the front row, as the safety rail can obscure your view

3rd year running going to the panto at the Marlowe. Best times had by all.

Went to see Motown recently at the Marlowe, fantastic theatre venue, clean and comfy seating, bar can sometimes get busy pre/mid show as everyone rushes for a drink!

Needs more baby changing facilities had to change my son on the floor

Nice theatre. Good views of the stage from the circle as would be expected. Like all theatres it was pricey, but the performance I watched was amazing. I really dislike the concrete area outside the theatre and think it's ugly, they could do with some big planters to make it prettier. It's also a bit sparse in the reception area but it is functional and it has decent enough facilities from what I experienced. I will definitely go back in the future.

Saw Warhorse and it was brilliant, I really liked the Marlowe, it is really up to date with bars to get hot and cold drinks, also alcoholic drinks as well as food.
