Wonderful theatre with a round stage, open from all sides. People sit all around it! Wonderful play, High Society. I was wondering if I'd like it having seen the movie so often, but it was gorgeous.
Consistently brilliant productions, with very generous student offers and day tickets available for every performance . Box office opens at 10, but get there before 7 for guaranteed seats.
Such a great theatre ! I visited 3 times last year (Other desert cities / The crucible/ Electra) and I can't wait to visit again :)
This is I think one of the best tours in London.It combines history, drama, humour told in an entertaining way.Ned our tour guide was fantastic if you want to be entertained and informed don't miss It
Beautiful theatre , wonderful productions, one of the only theatres left that gives you the feeling of a 'grand theatre visit' go if you get a chance :-)
Stunning curated season of plays. Discounts for under 25s, seniors, disabled and matinees. Onsite cafe and refreshments. Book online, or by telephone for best prices
Great theatre , great plays. Yeah, the bars are good too. Occasionally you may bump into Danny DeVito as well .
Wonderful theatre and great productions. It was a bit chilly in February though, watched the whole show with my coat on.
A silly flaw of the iPhone is that set alarms will ring aloud even if your phone is on silent. So take the extra few seconds to make sure you don't have an alarm set for the climax of the last scene.
The bar gets very busy so order your half time drinks and get there at least 30 mins before the performance starts to absorb the atmosphere and be seated in time for the performance .
One of the best theatres in London . Book online for the best deals or try the box office in the morning for cheap tickets
One of the best theatres in London . Beautiful building and a huge stage.
If your friend has alcohol/anger/misogyny issues, you're actually doing him a disservice by turning a blind eye to it and enabling it and "honoring" the "Bro Code." Just think about that, guys.
One of the best theatres in London . Haven't seen a single bad play here. Call in advance to get great rates on amazing seats if you're under 25.
Great British actors such as Judi Dench and Peter O’Toole have performed in this 192-year old theatre . With Kevin Spacey as artistic director, this iconic theatre is set to attract a whole lot more. Read more
Fantastic staff . After arriving 1.30 hours late for the performance after Southern Rail turned a. 50 minute journey into 4.30 hours. I was given a ticket for the evening performance . Thanks.
Excellent theatre . Bars are good when the tills work. Young trendy crowd. Kevin has gone now but the quality remains.
Seats in the rear stalls can be a bit hot and soporific, so have an ice cream and a walk around during the interval to perk up.
Wonderful theatre , great productions, happy staff and easy to get a drink at the bar ???? ???? ????
Get here early! They throttle entry, so there is always a queue to enter the theatre if the show is sold out.
Original design of the stage. Friendly atmosphere .
Good production of The Duchess of Malfi, great stage, strong acting. But don't go if you want an uplifting experience... dark and emotional play with some heart-wrenching and gruesome moments. phew!
Beautiful building, comfortable seats , full of cool furniture and fantastic performances !
I have seen some amazing performances here. Tip: Under 25s have access to £12 tickets for every show. Worth it.
Brilliant venue right next to Waterloo station. I saw Groundhog Day the musical which was fantastic
After joining the Old Vic Theatre Co. in 1936, acting greats Michael Redgrave, Alec Guinness and Laurence Olivier all served in the Royal Navy or Volunteer Reserve in WWII. Find your maritime story. Read more
The middle of the stalls is properly the better seats with no overhang from the Dress Circle or too near the stage so you have to look up!
Head to the upstairs bar area. Much quieter than the basement bar and there are benches to sit. And plugs for phone charging.
The tours they do are fantastic I think they are one of the best kept secrets in London.
Great bar downstairs; cocktails , snacks and full on food.
Very charming late Georgian theatre putting on stage high quality plays
Super nice theatre , saw The Lorax. Would recommend seeing anything here!
Such a beautiful theatre . Lovely vibe and great acoustics .
Spacey's swansong - the return of Clarence Darrow . Worth the hype and the ticket prices.
Clarence Darrow is a great show, and what an actor Spacey is!
Theater performances here are amongst the best in London
By 1918 the Old Vic was established as the only permanent Shakespearean theatre in London , and by 1923 all of Shakespeare’s plays had been performed there
Great theatre and excellent productions
Theatre most definitely and the staff are lovely
Comfortable and cosy. Production was excellent!
Founded in 1818, for most of the 19th century this theatre was known as the Royal Victorian Theatre and advocated temperance, i.e. no booze. It was damaged in the Blitz and only reopened in 1950.
Lovely theatre . Students receive generous concession discounts
Learned a lovely little trick from Sarah and Simon, pre-order you're drinks for the break!
Catch Kevin Spacey in Shakerspeaere's Richard III, a power house of a performance . Modern, relevant, and totally mesmirising,
Get to see Kevin Spacey his AWESOME...
Kevin Spacey as Clarence Darrow was an awesome one man performance .
Lovely old theatre - a London must do
Great intimate venue !
The Winslow Boy was great! Love the Old Vic!
I don't think the Old Vic ever do a bad play . Don't hesitate. Just go and see something.
Staff is super nice and welcoming (thanks Mattie!) highly recommended for breakfast or pre or post show snack or drinks! - Belén H
Excellent coffee - Lili M.
Absolutely loved Macbeth! The cafe's picked before the play, so make sure to book a table! - Olya Kuznetsova
If you are on a budget but don't want to miss on a play on this fantastic theatre, ask about the standing option (5 pounds). The scenography is incredible. Nice to hang out before and after plays. - Maria Ines Guaia Keeble
Lovely theater, very central, small enough to enjoy a play, very good selection of plays too. - EDR
Ask for Peter and order the Salted Caramel ice cream - some of the best ice cream I've ever tried! - Sam H
