Sadler's Wells Review

Attend Charity event - Movement for Hope. Excellent

Small but beautiful theatre, very modern. Drinks are good and staff very friendly and helpful. We saw gala flamenco show and it was amazing

Thoroughly enjoyed the adapted Irish version of the swan lake. Beware, the theatre operates slightly unconventional rules. One of them is that if you get shushed, you MUST shush back at them!

Great venue, Very Expensive refreshments. The bars/restaurants of the surrounding area, also seem to match this. Very overpriced.

Beautiful modern choreography, magnificent performance, amazing costumes, light and direction.

Ok but people not very friendly around this part of london

Watched Carmen La Cubana , good view and sound although seats are perhaps a bit too tiny if you are +6 2

Amazing venue for an event more amazing performance. Rambert 2 + The final performance of Ghost Dances. Rambert dancers are so so great!!!

Saw the red shoes stunning. Great atmosphere and nice little cafe if you have time. Served a very good chai latte

Amazing venue with jaw dropping performances! Cloud Gate's 13 Tongues was one of the most moving shows I've seen

Ok. Let's be honest. The beat dance in London! Almost always, not always everything.

Always great performances and great view from most seats

It's reasonably accessible. The staff are considerate.

Fabulous venue with easy free parking on a weekend. Host to wonderful quality productions. Book well in advance as tickets run scarce all too quick. A real treat. Highly recommend the red shoes baller, Matthew Bourne is theatrical and humorous

Fantastic afternoon show, giving youngsters a great start! Highly recommend!

The reason for four stars as always the performance was magnificent and mesmerising. However, this not a place to really have pre drinks as there is no seating available and the decor is stark. Please don't let this detour you from seeing a performance here.

Always love going to Sadlers Wells but last night was extremely good life changing in what is beautiful

We had a thoroughly enjoyable experience. The theatre is beautiful and Swan Lake was brilliant.

What a show, went to see the sample event and was blown away. Will be booking to see more soon!

Never been disappointed with anything I've watched here

Travelled from North Yorkshire for the production of Red Shoes. Amazing performance...ticket collection swift and efficient. Good seats...sound lighting excellent. We will be back very soon Sadlers Wells and

Offering many forms of dance, from contemporary ballet to hip hop, touring shows, one off events and double/triple bills.

The performances here leave memories that endure for life. The exquisite beauty of movement causes a profound shift in my emotions and I walk out on air, shaken n" stirred, because the sensual experience reaches right inside of me, touching my soul, and bringing tears of joy.

The theatre has good sound and is renowned for it's lighting design. The auditorium space is plain and functional in appearance, but the small size means everyone has a great view of the stage. Plenty of solo patrons too, so whether you're visiting in a group or on your own, you will be surrounded by fellow enthusiasts that 'feel' touched by dance too.

I still have memories of the old original theatre with red velvet seating; my mum started taking me to the ballet from aged 7.
The new theatre is very accessible inside and close to public transport links.
Some shows have standing room at the front.

My favourite performance here, was 'The Faun'.
Again, I cried -- it was one of the most soul stirring performances I have ever seen. My heart nearly exploded and the roof nearly lifted off with the multiple encores of applause.

Beautiful venue dedicated to dance performances near Angel Station. Very good seating overall, even when you are seating at the top circle. I have attended to several performances and it really does not matter where you are, the view is fantastic. Easy to get in and getting out, which is very good when there is an interval during the performance. Several bars and speedy service and very good priced. I had the chance to go backstage and look at the theatre from the artist perspective, which did nothing but increase my liking of the venue. Highly recommended.

Great venue. Went to see a show curated by Rachel Attfield. Brilliant

A meeting place of like minded modern dance/ballet enthusiasts. Being away from the West End feels less pretentious and money grabbing. However the good seats are not cheap. Always very busy. Friendly doorman. Good facilities. No central aisle in the First Circle means lots of disturbance.
Good places to eat pre performance in Exmouth Market, just 10 mins walk

Amazing presentations, seats can be a bit uncomfortable.

I do dance show there as part of Step Into Dance and it s an amazing experience! Such a beautiful theatre

Theatre and what it provides the community is amazing

Lovely theatre, easy to get to. Private free parking across the road for disabled and Over 65's.

I took my parents and the staff were very accommodating in regards to reserving a car parking space and allocating the best seats for them

Amazing view, even from the top, nice acoustics and super shows.

Great venue great ballet company helpfully polite staff.

You can't be wrong if you go to Sadler's Wells! I've beeing fortunate to attend one of Pina Bausch's legacy, Viktor and I hope that the ovations were heard from heaven.

Slight bias as the company I work for are an associate artist but if contemporary dance is your thing there is no better place in London.

Always adventurous, with the best dancers, groups and performances. The San Francisco Ballet was beyond wonderful.

Well laid out and very nice atmosphere. Was in the second circle and had no problem with the show.

Wonderfully attentive people. A pleasure to have performed here.

Great place to see some of the best performing arts in London.

Very good and helpful staff, clean premises, it is suited for wheelchair users!!

Went to see a show, the the was so uncomfortably hot that I had to leave at the interval! Very disappointed that I missed half the show.

I did mention it to one of the staff and they told me that a person had taken ill in the theatre due to the heat.

Easy to get to, comfortable seats and good views no matter where you sit. Speakers and screens around so it's easy to hear comfortably.

Any show or performance that the SW has is world class. London is very lucky to have such a high quality venue.

Absolutely love this theatre.All the performances I attended here were remarkable.I can never fault this place.I have yet to come across a performance I didn't like at this place.

For u who loves classical music this is what u're looking for

It was our first time at the Sadler's Well Theatre and we were lucky enough to get ticket's for the one off Conversation and Music evening with Annie Lennox. The show was fantastic and the theatre was as you would expect. However, the whole thing was spoilt and let down massively by some Theatre Goers just before the interval that was compounded by the Theatre staff themselves.

About 10 minutes before the interval when the first half was winding down a few people in the audience got up and went to the bar to get their drinks early and before the interval rush. (Why not pre-book them like everyone else did?) Now we all know that once you are in your theatre seat you are not getting out unless half the row stands up and lets you squeeze past. So, with the first half still going several rows of people were disturbed and had to stand up, blocking the view of the rows behind, to let these people out.

To make matters worse the same people came back into the auditorium a few minutes later, now carrying their drinks, and the same rows had to stand up all over again to let them squeeze back in.

I doubt the Theatre could stop people leaving the auditorium for any reason whether the show was ongoing or not but why were they allowed back in again to cause a second lot of unnecessary disruption?

Spoilt an otherwise very special night.

I tried to speak to the Theatre last night and this morning to get their take on it but they are not replying to anything.

Excellent place.....food good but extremely pricey!

Akram Khan's Giselle .. STUNNING. Go see. You won't be disappointed.

I like this theatre the seats are comfortable and all have good views of stage it is a difficult journey for me but well worth the effort as all production are of high quality

As a long term Friend and Patron I cannot recommend Sadlers Wells enough. A strong repertoire with regular commissions of new work as well as old favourites. Prices are very approachable and should be of much wider appeal to a broad potential audience.
