Reviewed By trevm77

Just walked out of Pipes in the Peak, having listened to Phil Kelsall (principal organist at Blackpool Tower) for two hours. I’m up in the air. What an organist, what technique, and what a fantastic organ to perform on. An enormous credit to Mr D Thorp ( the owner) who fulfilled his dream! Not just a Crompton organ, but a piece of magic with added extras. It’s a must for anyone to visit. A glass of wine, coffee and biscuits, an incredible afternoons entertainment. All for £12. Never mind the surrounding countryside as an added bonus. This is the best attended “organ” venue in the U.K. , and I can’t recommend it highly enough. (I’m a semi pro musician, have been for the last 50 years, so I’ve got a good ear)!

Pomegranate Theatre

Reviewed By Janet71sykes - Chesterfield, United Kingdom

Car parking outside for the disabled or many carparks around if not. Beautiful old theatre. We went to see a film. Cheaper than the cinema. There are a few steps to the bar or you can avoid the area and go into the screening. The chairs are reasonably comfortable and clean Lovely evening out

Derby Theatre

Derby Theatre has a long and rich history of delivering high quality drama to audiences. Previously Derby Playhouse, our unique new partnership with University of Derby and an Arts Council England award of strategic funding, which will be built on via our entry into their National Portfolio in April 2015, now means Derby Theatre is transforming from a traditional producing house to an organisation of training, mentorship and artistic excellence. Led by Artistic Director and Chief Executive Sarah Brigham, Derby Theatre is bringing together creative professionals and audiences to tell compelling stories and take artistic risks as we emerge as a vibrant, thriving theatre. We combine this professional programme with an exciting suite of undergraduate and postgraduate courses and an emerging talent programme aimed at developing the next generation of artists. Meanwhile our community engagement programme reaches out across our region including people of all ages and from all backgrounds in our unique offer. 'A generous hearted enjoyable night out and the spirits rise to see Derby Theatre packed, bursting at the seams with laughter and - under its new Artistic Director, Sarah Brigham - full of real ambition.' Lyn Gardner The Guardian

Wasn’t sure what to expect having never been to this theatre before. Love the fact we could make a day out of our trip. Plenty of parking to choose from. A wander round the stores then watching a show and wow what a great show it was! Absolutely gripped from the start with an impressive stage setting and a great opening. This performance of a Christmas Carol is easily one of the best shows I have ever seen. Well done to a very professional cast. Will definitely be returning
