Annoying experience here tonight. Firstly, I watched Paranormal Activity, which was just outstanding. What let this wonderful play down was the theatre. The location itself is great. However, inside the theatre the seating is very crammed. But that wasn't the worst thing. There were people coming in and out during the play, despite everyone being told you will not be allowed in if you're late or leave during the play. The stalls has a very awkward view at the back, where you have your views obstructed by either people in front of you or the lights on the ceiling blocking the view. Finally, just our luck to have a drunk woman spoiling our show near the end, which resulted in the play being paused. I mean, seriously. Thankfully, the stage actors were incredibly professional and didn't let this distract them. And they thoroughly deserved the round of applause in the end.

We had tickets, to go and see Paranormal activity at the beautiful Ambassador Theatre. A theatrical take on the film and I have to say that it was excellent. The actors in this production were fantastic and wouldn’t have seemed out of place in any big screen version of this great show. We took our seats 5 rows back from the stage and could probably have benefited from being slightly further back or even in the circle. That said and due to the cosy nature of the theatre hearing everything that was going on was not an issue. The atmosphere in the theatre was very jumpy with people screaming out which at the end of the day added to the eerie atmosphere required to pull off the desired audience reactions. It was thoroughly enjoyable, brilliantly acted and had people jumping in their seats at the right times. The only issue encountered was a, somewhat worse for wear female who had consumed a few too many drinks. Her behaviour necessitated the production being stopped for a period of time whilst security after much cajoling removed her👏👏👏. Too much cheering. The cast carried on to their credit in a truly professional manner and as if nothing had happened. Credit to them. Brilliant show, brilliant cast and great acting. Loved it

Awesome theatre, great atmosphere and just nice to look at. Easy to get to and loads of food places around it. Clean facilities and friendly staff. Went to see the Paranormal Activity stage show which was also amazing, the theatre really lended itself well to the atmosphere of the show. Seats were comfy enough with a wee bit of leg room, not much though but been to a lot worse. The view from the upper sections were totally fine from our seats in row H (4-6) and the sound carried well enough that you could hear even when the actors were quiet. My one complaint was that despite the clear no readmissions statement someone was allowed back in during a quiet and dark part of the show which allowed really bright light to spill in sort of ruining the immersive moment. All in all though great theatre.

Went to see Paranormal Activity today (7/2/26.). First off the show was fantastic and acting was incredable. The review is about the Ambassadors theatre itself. The main issue myself and my partner found that our seats in the circle were like being crammed into a sardine tin. Both myself and my partner are not the slightest of people, so fitting comfortably into these seats was nearly impossible. I’m not sure how you would cater for the larger person. Would you insist they buy two seats and penalise them? You also have a rule about late admittance saying if you leave or arrive late you would not be allowed into the show (no latecomers, no re admission) so why let up to 15 people in in the middle of a suspenseful blackout where torches and house lights are suddenly there blinding your guests whose eyes are accustomed to the dark; enforce your own rules. There were no staff visible on the circle enforcing the use of mobile phones which glowed and their use was a distraction and very noticeable throughout the show. Also for the nature of the show , maybe a courtesy message about turning off smart watches as this also ruined the suspenseful blackouts the show had. This is not about the show, as the show was fantastic, unfortunatly the theatre itself was a let down and would be interesting to see the response from the Ambasadors to this.
