Theatre on The Bay

Poor, in every respect

Just before the start of the performance management announced that no recording of the performance was permitted. It did not state no photography or that phones should be switched off. We were surprised at the limit of exclusions. As the play started I took a shot of the lead character, and put my phone, in aeroplane mode, away. At the intermission, we were reported for taking the photo by the woman sitting next to us, but instead of saying this, a theatre employer accused my husband of taking photos, noting he'd been reported by a stage hand. When my husband challenged this, it was admitted the complaint had been made by a theatre goer against me. My husband noted that there had been no announcement precluding photography and that I'd taken a single photo. My husband was then aggressively challenged by the stage manager, who refused to provide his name when asked. (He did so eventually and after walking away from my husband.) If the theatre has a no photography or phone off policy, it should make this clear in the announcements. It goes without saying that given this wasn't made clear, the matter was handled very poorly. I'd also note that the theatre was hot during the first half, and freezing during the second half. Our experiences might have been improved had the production shone, but sadly it didn't. This is not a theatre to which we'll return.

A luxury place with amazing ambiance

It's a very beautiful place with lots of cafe and restaurants. The ambiance is amazing. We watched the sunset beside the sea. I highly recommend camps bay. After returning to my home country I was thinking about moving to Camps Bay :D
