Tickets for To Kill a Mockingbird were reasonably priced, inside the food & drink is similar (not cheap, but acceptable for a theatre). Loved the stillness of the whole area, it made you forget you were outside in London.

Beautiful location. We saw Peter pan. Really a great performance. Theater has its own stretch of meadow where you can sit on benches as well as in the grass. You can order food and drinks there.

Regents Park with its beautiful greenery, art spaces, restaurants, the famous London Zoo and views of water also contains a hidden open air theatre. A great venue within a great park. Another example of what London has to offer the discerning seeker of variety and enjoyment. Being in the open air adds a touch of nature to the fayre on offer. The risk of rain is ever present, so the venue attracts the people willing to add a touch of exciting uncertainty to an evening out. There is a communal feel to proceedings as everybody shares this combination of star quality performers, being amongst nature and hoping that the show will finish before it rains! Helpful staff and fine food and drink add to the enjoyment. An experience not to be missed.

Went to see Little Shop of Horrors. The venue was magical. The set was great. The show was brilliant. Great night out in central London. Only issue were number of toilets and waiting time for food and drink.

This place is amazing! It s such a beautifully designed place, and the way they integrated the structure with the plants surrounding it is impressive. We went out to eat before going to the theater only to find out that they have eateries on-site. As a Technical Theater student, I was impressed by their use of the space, even using water and sprinklers during the performance to simulate rain. I ll definitely be visiting again!

Note that if you go to a late performance via the tube, you might have to go around the long way to get back to Baker Street Station as the park may be closed. (I believe it normally closes at 20:00.)

Wow! Loved this place. Quiet retreat in the middle of London. Bars and food was excellent with plenty of space to hang around before returning the show. Can be a bit of a wait for food at peak times but I think that is expected. Lots of green space and the decoration around the park was very secret garden-esque. Easy to get to from nearest tube station. Most importantly you are allowed to take in your own food and drink though! We rocked up with a picnic basket for a comedy show and had an awesome time (ate food there and brought in own drinks). Not many places that can be done now, so serious hats off to this place for being great.

Amazing productions for all ages, you will always take a risk with the British weather but no such thing as bad weather just bad clothing. I have not been disappointed the last 4 times. They are now doing Evita.

The performance was great and setting serene. However, I had a real issue with the bar service. I got there 15 mins before the performance but the bar was understaffed with slow bar staff and I couldn't get a drink before the show. They actually stopped serving and around 50 people didn't get served. Only by running to the bar at the interval was I able to get my beverage.

So nice to be back at the theatre! Staff did a great job, it all felt very safe. And Jesus Christ Superstar, albeit a socially distanced production, really worked. And felt like it had a new relevance in pandemic Britain.

A hidden gem of London. Once you find out how to get into the theatre grounds (only from within the park), it's well organised. Food and drink available - in fact a really long bar is under the banked seating. Just about enough toilets to cope during the break. Decent sightlines from the whole auditorium.

Open Air Theatre - This is one of the great treats for those in London on a warm summer's evening. The current production of A Midsummer Night's Dream is excellent - new production, exciting ideas, well executed - runs until 27 July 2019 More

Wonderful open area to watch the theatre! Went there to watch Evita with friends, and the speaker system is loud and clear, all the singers were in tune as expected, there was a great little orchestra, and (the most important of all) it did not rain! Nice balmy evening spent well while wind rustled through the leaves and added to the ambience.
