Reviews of Roman Theatre

Its brilliant for children. I used to take my daughter in there. And she loved it. There are puzzles to do. It's only a small museum but good to pop into.

As awesome as it is to have one of the largest Roman theatres in England located in Colchester, it is rather disappointing at how it is being presented... You can only really see it through a locked door.

Small but significant, an excavation under the floor of a 19th c 2 up 2 down terrace house reveals an ancient theatre foundations, set into the hill, which prominent s the landscape.

Very good, lots of nice old stuff. I don’t understand the roman theme though 🤔

Worth a visit just a short walk from town. You wouldn't know it was there so worth the walk.

Excellent relic of an ancient Roman theatre but trouble is you can only see it through a window unless you make a special arrangement with the council to be let inside.

I gained access by being on a guided tour of Colchester. There isn’t a huge amount to see but still very interesting.

(Translated) Unfortunately, you can only see a very small part of the former Roman theater through the dirty reflecting panes of the small, inconspicuous house. A truly sad and desolate performance for England's largest Roman theater. If you look at all the pictures you have seen just as much.
The D-shaped Roman theater was west of and adjacent to the Temple of Claudius, facing north down the slope to the river. It was built of septaria and brick and seated over 3,000. It was about 70m by 37m tall.
(Original)
Man kann leider nur, durch die verdreckten reflektierenden Scheiben des kleinen unscheinbaren Hauses, einen sehr kleinen Teil des ehemaligen Römisches Theaters sehen. Eine wirklich traurig und trostlose Darbietung für das grösste römische Theater Englands. Wenn man sich alle Bilder anschaut hat man ebenso viel gesehen.
Das D-förmiges römische Theater befand sich westlich des Claudius-Tempels und angrenzend an diesen, mit Blick nach Norden den Hang zum Fluss hinunter. Es wurde aus Septarien und Ziegeln gebaut und hatte über 3.000 Sitzplätze. Es war etwa 70m auf 37 m groß.
