The Front Room is a fantastic addition to Weston’s cultural scene. The team brings quality work into Weston, which wouldn’t get to be seen otherwise, and provide a unique platform for local artists to perform.

The Front Room is fantastic. I have seen so many brilliant shows there in the short space since they opened. It is brilliant. It is exactly what Weston super Mare has so badly needed.

Great to have this venue in Weston super Mare! On the site of the old pizza express, this theatre has fully accessible facilities and refreshments available on site. We saw a brilliant family show put on by Kid Carpet and the Noisy Animals. Fantastic!
