Grimsby Auditorium has attracted lots of great acts especially in the past few years. Recently I…read morewent to see David Gray here and it was absolutely brilliant. Other acts recently include Travis, Sugababes, Shane Ward and Ray Quinn. If you're a fan of musicals there is plenty of choice from local operatic groups to others fresh from the west end. Children are well catered for with lots of family friendly shows. In the summer there is a project for budding actors and singers, age 9 -19 culminating in a professional show at the end. Last year they performed High School Musical which went down a storm! Although a small venue compared to others, it is in keeping with the area and tastefully decorated. There is a bar upstairs and a small shop to buy refreshments. My one criticism would be the prices which are typical of a venue of this kind, expensive! On busy nights the queue can be a problem so perhaps more staff in the kiosk, but that aside it's definitely a place well worth a visit.

The show itself although only a dress rehersal was fantastic! The kids loved it, the only downside i can see to the Riverhead theatre is that it is very small, but then in a town the size of Louth i guess it doesnt really need to be that big! The tickets are very reasonably priced although the prices vary depending on what shows are on but i dont think i have ever seen a ticket advertised that has cost more than £11. The theatre itseld is very clean and the staff are very friendly and helpful.

It's a fantastic asset to Louth and well deserving of the lottery funding it's had. There are professional dressing rooms, a well-appointed stage with good lighting and even a bar. Views of the stage are good from all seats because it's such a small theatre, and this definitely adds to the atmosphere. The Playgoers theatre company often advertise different plays and these get excellent reviews.

They are hopeless and never interested in the customers - mainly as they are council employees. The building may be magnificent, but the service is abyssmal. Like an old soviet establishement, where everything is for the convenience of the staff and sod the punters. Dreadful service at the bar, officious and pompous stewarding, and the floor itself has no rake so if you are more than a few rows from the back you cannot see anything.

From the owner: We are now 157 years old! Gough & Davy was established as a…read morePiano retailer in 1860 and soon became a market leader in providing the latest musical instruments and music at the time. The business flourished all through the Victorian era and on into the 20th. century. During the next hundred years the name Gough & Davy became synonymous with music lovers, not only in Hull but the whole country. In 2007 The company was relocated in new premises 'Under the City Hall' and is now owned and managed by Hull's own Alan Kilvington who first joined 'Goughs' as a sales assistant in 1995. Al 'Kilvo' is an Americana piano player from Hull, Yorkshire England who plays with a style and verve described as that of the Killer - Jerry Lee Lewis - himself. In 2013 was invited to record with Hull's Johnny Pat in Sun Studios in Memphis TN with Kenny Lovelace and Robert Hall of Jerry Lee's band.

Luckily I haven't ever had to pay because tickets have come my way for free which is a good thing because I would probably ask for my money back otherwise. There is a preponderance of 'shocking' (read adult) productions to entice people or 'gritty' to try to persuade people that it is serious acting and one or two productions that are supposed to be comedies. It's just a lot of marketing in front of second rate production / acting - think 'home and away' circa 1998 wooden performances and flimsy sets. If you're one of the luvvie crowd you would probably love this place and the productions however if you value quality acting and production you would be best going elsewhere. Your choice.
