Amazing night at the Alex as always. Watched The Bodyguard for my birthday. Phenomenal performance.
We had stalls this time and a great view

Went to see the bodyguard. Wow superb. From start to finish, I could watch it all over again.
But I have to say a huge thank you to the theatre staff. Particularly Andy who assisted myself and my daughter from the moment we arrived and then checked on us to make sure all was OK. Thanks Andy you made it even more memorable.

Just checking out the theatre where Dirty Dancing is starting Tuesday for the week. Heard some old Dixie in the stalls bar? I’ll include my day In Birmingham. First time I’ve performed here proper. Exquisite buildings and shopping areas here. I love it.

Great Rolling Stones tribute show. Lovely atmosphere and helpful staff. But £ 7.30 for a bottle of beer!? Amazingly, no queues at the bar during the interval. Wonder if they've made the connection...

We always enjoy our time at the Alexandra theatre.
Is a nice place to see a good show and be well entertained.
The price of snacks and drinks isn't cheap but you're in the heart of Birmingham and it's to be expected.
The staff are super friendly and really helpful if you have any questions or needs they'll do as much as they can to help.

Great theatre with lovely staff. This was our first visit to The Alexandra and it was wonderful. It's only a short walk from New Street train station so easy to get to. The main box office entrance is just across the road from the rear entrance so make sure you get the right one. It's very nice inside, the seats are comfortable and the sound was great. The stage is a very good size and we had no trouble seeing from our seats in the stalls. The prices at the bar are a little high but the norm for a theatre, and there was a live piano player who was excellent.
We saw "The Ocean at the End of the Lane", based on the Neil Gaiman book, which was the best show we have ever seen. A dark fantasy tale, both scary and emotional with incredible production values. We will definitely be back. Recommended.

What a wonderful theatre! Loved the decor. Good sound and lighting. Seating is a bit tight, both in leg room and width.

Pink Martini was amazing on the evening that I went.

Access to the theatre is pretty good. From parking next door to getting into and out of the theatre.

Good ratio of bars and food outlets to audience. I didn’t wait too long to be served.
