Popular venue for bands, comedians and concerts |
Barker's Pool Balm Green Sheffield, South Yorkshire S1 2JA United Kingdom +44 114 278 9789 (box office) |
This large-capacity stage hall is a popular venue for visiting comedians, singers, bands, plays and musicals. Although it faces stiff competition from other more modern Sheffield venues, the hall is conveniently based in the city center and still attracts some very big names. Classical music groups and visiting orchestras also perform regularly here. The seating is on two floors, facing a large stage. The surrounding decor is relatively old-fashioned, with some features dating back to the 1920s and the hall has an atmospheric feel, though it can be rather dark. A bar is available and serves during some performances. Review © 2007, Wcities |
