We saw Di and Viv and Rose at Theatre by the Lake and it was one of the best theatre performances I’ve ever seen. The stage is set in the round, which means everyone gets a great view and very different to more traditional theatres. The cast was phenomenal. The story had me both laughing and crying. It’s funny, heartfelt, and beautifully performed. The staff at the theatre were absolutely lovely - so helpful and welcoming, they really added to the whole experience. We had such a great night out and if i ever visit Keswick again, i'll definitely be going to the theatre again.

Fabby-tantasssstic. As a star war fan, who can take,or leave Pride&Prejudice. Wife bought a family of 4 to watch the show.. I can honestly say it was AAAAMAZING. As well as i surrounded theatre which have never experienced, all the actors and show was 1st class , would def go watch again.

My husband, toddler and I spontaneously stopped by while on a trip to the lake. Although 2 hours and 30 mins of Pride and Prejudice (and so brilliantly performed) isn’t an ideal activity for a toddler to sit through, the staff were incredibly accommodating and inviting. An anxiety inducing turned into a memorable experience.

Brilliant little theatre where we watched a play in the round. Theatre can be reconfigured to accommodate regular tiered seating. 'Relaxed screenings' take place occasionally to accomodate people with special requirements e.g. BSL, and for those with ADHD, autism, visual impairment etc. Great to walk straight out of the place and stroll on Derwentwater. Cafe and refreshments also available.

We went to see Pride & Prejudice last night - two adults and two kids (10 and 13). A really tremendous, cosy and intimate theatre and setup. We all really enjoyed it. Great performances, innovative production. A real gem of a venue in an incredible location. Do go if you can.

We stopped in for lunch as a mixed party, 2 adults, 2 children and an elderly disabled member. Set up was fine to allow us to easily get a table that was suitable. We had to clear and clean the table and seats ourselves. Seats and table were acceptable, but did feel a bit "school cafeteria style". Food was decent, although not good at the prices. They were having a number of technical issues which meant a fair old wait to be served at the tills.

Great venue. Seats are comfortable with more room for my long thigh bones than I'm used to in a theatre. Friendly staff. Watched an outstanding production of Pride and Prejudice.

I have been to this theatre several times and have always been impressed with the quality of the acting. They have always got a amazing variety of shows: yesterday we saw The Caretaker, but in the same week they were showing The Importance of Being Ernest; The Lady in The Van and many more. The best bit is no one looks at you funny if you are still in your walking gear.

We came to the café last week for coffee and cake, lovely setting by the lake and good service. They are extending so in the summer will have direct views over Derwent Water. There was a lot of choice at the café, in terms of drinks and cake and they do lunch too. We saw Peter Pan last year and it was a good production. Staff could have been slightly more understanding about my 10month daughter at the time, but that said I would take her again. An asset to Keswick!

The Theatre had to cancel the Christmas Proms Show after severe flooding in the area. The youg ladt whho handled the refunds was a delight to deal with thank you.
