    Wonderful staged dancing show
    We had the privilege to see the new summer show and it was fantastic from start to finish we throughly enjoyed our time there. India was our drinks host and kept us topped up during what was I guess a quiet night for them. Not the type of show I was expecting as I had the pre conception that it would be somewhat revolving around drag queens, far from it it was brilliantly danced and staged show numbers which where very impressive. I thought that the drinks where very reasonable and not at all overpriced. we didn’t dine so can’t comment on either the pre dinner meal or snack menu. Well done to all of the cast at Funny Girls you blew me away with your entertaining show.

    Fantastic Night Out
    We visited on a Wednesday night, even though it was a weeknight, the performers still gave it their all - so don’t let it put you off! We started with a lovely 3 course meal in their restaurant, the service was great, the meal was nothing flash but it was well presented and tasted good. When we were sat in our seats for the show, the table service wasn’t great but went straight to the bar and was served straightaway no problem. The summer show was brilliant. It had a great flow and we didn’t feel like we were waiting too long between the cabaret, Zoe kept everyone entertained. If you want a good night out, Funny Girls is the place to go!

    My sister and our lovely friend Christine (who was a Funny Girls Virgin) went to see the show last Wednesday 7th June 2023. My sis and I have been coming to see FG for well over 20 years. We have always loved the full show, atmosphere and the joy it brings. This was our 1st time without Betty Legs Diamond. None of us like change so we were a bit unsure.... However, what a fantastic show (as normal) . We loved the whole new dynamics. Laughed so much at the Oliver performance. Everything was superb. Timing excellent and every one was so smiley. So if you get the chance go and see the show. Despite it being a Wednesday the team gave their everything and we loved it. We will be back in October. We love you Funny Girls and always will. Thank you xxx

    Professional and value
    Went to a midweek show with some friends and was very impressed with the venue. Zoe was a great hostess and the dancers were sensational and very slick and professional. I seem to recall reading a review saying the drinks were expensive but to be honest for a club I thought they were reasonable, you would certainly pay more if you were at a show in Manchester. At £19.50 each in a booth it was well worth the money for a full evenings entertainment.

    LOVE IT!
    I’m so saddened to read negative reviews! Some peoples expectations are ridiculous. I’ve just returned & I’m still buzzing from the show! I come to Funny Girls at least 3 times a year. We spent Saturday & Sunday night in awe of the stunning yet savage DJ Zoe & the cast. As always it’s a guaranteed good night! I have never been disappointed, not once! A magnificent listed building with original features. From the second you walk in the door a beautiful Queen on reception checks you in & you’re escorted to your seats. Staff working the floor & stalls will offer friendly table service. No matter where you sit the show is visually stunning, the cast are nothing short of athletes! Of course they need regular intervals, to expect them to maintain insanely energetic performance and not lip sync is ludicrous! My respect & appreciation for their craft & the work that must be put in behind the scenes is unmatched. Funny, perfectly choreographed & with attention to detail. A mix of traditional cabaret & contemporary drag makes the experience enjoyable for all. We love it so much that this weekend attended two evenings in a row! It was just £10 a ticket. It’s not a “rip off at all” like other reviews state. Drinks are the same price as any town centre club/bar. If you choose to be standing, as we did (we like to be close to the action) there is also friendly bar service, particularly from Annie. Her warmness stands out. She’s fantastic at her job! She’s efficient, skilled & brilliant with customer relations. Myself & many other people around us enjoyed her lovely service & friendly company during the intervals. I can’t recommend Funny Girls enough. You are outstanding! ALWAYS. Can’t wait to return.

    Fabulous! 👯
    This was my first time at Funny Girls! A standing ticket only cost £10: if you get there early enough, you can secure a table to rest your drinks on. Seated areas cost around double if not more, but I enjoyed being near the stage. In at least 2 ½ hours of entertainment, the talented performers delivered lots of high-energy musical numbers from Oliver, Aladdin, Hairspray, Chicago and more. A drag queen host provided laughs in between segments. There are a couple of bars to order drinks from. The show changes around every 3 months or so; when I’m next in Blackpool I’d definitely go see a new one!

    Wow wow wow
    Wow!!! What an absolute must if you come to Blackpool. This show has been by far the best show I have ever seen and amazing value for money! Carmen is amazing as the dj and the host (with legs to die for I was very jealous of) all the girls and boys are truly amazing and entertained us every single minute we was there. The waitresses are fabulous also! Will Def come again next time we are in blackpool.

    Loved every second!
    We went to Funny Girls on Sunday night and loved every single second. Zoe was on form, the cast were stunning and ridiculously talented: amazing dancers, fabulous outfits, attentive hostesses. The Little Mermaid performance was the highlight for me! I can’t wait to go again.

We have been to Funny Girls many times, a fantastic and unique show, but this week our Grandson Justin and his partner Sienna were visiting, it is their first time at Funny Girls and we managed to set Justin up to be slightly in the limelight (always joking with other people) a memory that will last with us forever - on May 23rd 2024 9.25pm! Thank you DJ Carmen x

Having not visited for a few years we were a little disappointed by how this show and venue have changed. Firstly the carpet, we were sticking to it, it needs a bloody good clean there was also gaffa tape holding together, lights in the ceiling were not all working, some of the waiting staff especially one with a white face make up were dam right rude and ignorant. The show wasn't as good as it's been before the LCD screen had sections that were not working and the cast was tiny, it seems to have lost its sparkle which is a real shame as we were really looking forward to visiting.

Disappointing really; after seeing hilarious drag acts in Gran Canaria we were looking forward to this famous venue.
Good points:
The dancers were amazing, well choreographed and very flexible.
The grand finale was really good, and was more or less the sort of thing we came to see
Bad points:
The host was really poor; has apparently been doing the show for 30 years, but unfortunately the jokes were even older than that. Not in the slightest funny.
The show format: after the weak opening by the host, there were 10 minute shows followed by 20 minutes of piped chart music, in the meantime we sat in pairs like a school assembly, waiting for the next act, looking at the back of the heads of the people in front meanwhile the grim waitresses with no charisma, stalked our tables waiting to pounce every time we had a drink.
The acts themselves, although well choreographed, consisted of FOUR males and just two drag queens, who basically mimed to chart music, or a routine from a musical, for instance Sister Act, something you may expect at an end of term school play, nothing original, not even funny. The drag queens tried to be funny but how many times can you pull your knickers out of your bum crack and pull a crooked face with your lips with a fag in hand? One routine was just two blokes stretching on a hoop, would be OK for BGT, but what it has to do with "Funny Girls" I am not sure?

Overall really disappointing and not worth the £24 each we paid . If it was free entry and in a pub location/atmosphere then it would be better, but we spent most of the evening just waiting for the disappointment of the next stage act.

The show was absolutely fantastic! Loved every minute! We were there to celebrate our friend’s 70th birthday!
It’s been on our list to do for a long time.
We did VIP experience and included a meal.
However, if we came back we wouldn’t eat here. The food wasn’t good at all. Out of three of us two had beef, which was tough and tasteless. Sadly we both didn’t finish it. The Soup was lovely but lukewarm and not a lot of it.

Absolutely brilliant night. Went on a Saturday for my mother in law’s 80th, the staff were so attentive and helpful. Hostess Marilyn was great. Show. Was outstanding, reminiscent of a proper cabaret night. Zoe held the audience between the acts. The performances and costumes were amazing.
