Very impressive place, the only thing is that it is getting completley surrounded by buildings when it should be sitting on its own. At the moment they are building right in front therefore ruining the view from the front. So wrong! I'm sure the council who own the building could have prevented this happening.

THE WATERFRONT HALL is one of the architectural icons along Lagan River in Belfast, just besides Hilton Hotel and few meters away from the central train station and St Georges Market (3rd best food market in the UK).

It has been open for around 6 years or so now – purpose built with modern facilities to suit the needs of both business and entertainment. Prior to this in Belfast there was a huge void. I have lived in the city for 8 years now and it was not until April this year (2001) that l visited the Waterfront Hall. FIRST IMPRESSIONS ...

Touch - Bill Dare
Excellent performances and well crafted plot twists. Style and realism seem a little confused.

Norman Lovett's Slide Show
An amusing look at preserved moments of history, in Norman Lovett's familiar dead-pan manner. It's still essentially an old man showing some slides and talking about them.

Stewart Lee - 41st Best Stand-Up Ever!
Everything the publicity claims is true. Self-satisfied desire to remain obscure gets in the way.

BBC Stand up show live!
Late night opportunity and great value for money, particularly in the half-price preview week. A mixed bag of mostly average, lowest-common-denominator stand-up.

Tom Stade - Setlist
Involves the audience in trying to make sense of a jumbled board of prompts. Targeting of the disabled and war victims will doubtless offend.
