Liverpool is to be the European Capital of Culture in 2008, and its theatres played a major role in helping the city win the role. There is quite a range, catering for all tastes. Some you might like to check out include:
The Empire: The largest theatre in the city, and probably the most expensive. It shows major touring productions, particularly musicals, and a mixture of other productions such as operas, plays, ballets and wrestling (honestly). It's close to Lime Street Station in the centre of town. Advance booking is advisable, particularly at weekends. Ticket prices generally from £20 up.
Liverpool Playhouse: The oldest repertory theatre in the UK, and my favourite in Liverpool. It shows smaller touring productions, mostly plays and less well-known musicals. Tickets from around £10 up. Located in Williamson Square in the town centre.
Everyman Theatre A short walk out of town is the Everyman theatre, famous for its associations with local poets and playwrights such as Roger McGough, Willy Russell and Alan Bleasdale. It shows lots of new plays by unknown writers, and is visited by many touring theatre companies. There are occasional book-readings by writers such as Tony Hawks and Pete McCarthy. The theatre is quite modern (it is 'in the round') and has an excellent, inexpensive bistro that is open throughout the day. Situated on Hope Street, near the Catholic Cathedral. Sister theatre to the Playhouse.
Neptune Theatre: the smallest of these theatres. This usually shows stand-up comedy (I've seen Ross Noble and the Reduced Shakespeare Company here), but is a regular venue for music too, particularly jazz , folk and acoustic. Tickets from around £10 upwards. The theatre is on Hanover Street in the centre of town, next door to the Walkabout pub.
Anything really, although the audience at the Empire tends to be a little more smartly dressed. The theatres can get quite warm inside as they are not air-conditioned. Leave a Comment Theme: TheaterAddress: All in or around the town centre.

Liverpool has a great nightlife catering for all tastes. Beatles fans will find Matthew St. appealing (Cavern Club, John Lennon Bar and Rubber Soul). More in Beatle name than nature but still cool spots.
Daytime is a relaxed affair.
Night time is no trainers or sports wear but rules are generally at the doorman's discretion (and mood). Leave a Comment Theme: OtherAddress: City Centre

Liverpool is famous for its comedy, and a night at the Rawhide Comedy Club is recommended. There are generally three comedians on each night, plus an MC. Some comedians are local to the city, so you may need to tune your ears in to the accent when you visit! I've seen comedians from the US and Australia play here too. Peter Kaye, Ross Noble and Johnny Vegas used to play Rawhide in the early parts of their careers, and many of the acts have won comedy awards, which gives you an indication of the calibre of the acts.
Food is available (you need to be there by 7pm for this), there is waitress service from the bar all evening, and when the comedy finishes it becomes a nightclub. All shows start at 8pm. The club has just moved to a new venue to cope with demand. You will need to book tickets in advance, either on the ticket line or in person at the box office. Check the website for programme details.
The language and subject matter can be a bit risque, you might not want to take your maiden aunt here!
No jeans, no trainers (this is standard for all nightclubs and bars in Liverpool at night). Smart casual clothing.

The Krazyhouse is Liverpool's most 'alternative' night out. It is essentially a rock club but plays a wide range of music across its 3 floors...metal, indie, emo and some charts. The 3 floors means that it generally suits a wider range of music tastes and the general atmosphere is really friendly. Feel free to show your wild side as you mingle with a creative and diverse bunch of people.
Its best to stock up on a few drinks before you venture in, in my opinion. Drinks are cheap but limited in range; alcopops and bottled beer are in abundance here (but can be warm on a busy night).
Burgers, chips and other drunken cuisine can be purchased inside the club.
Doors: 9pm-3am Thurs, Fri, Sat.
(There are monthly all nighters on Saturdays 'til 5am)
Anything is pretty much acceptable at the Krazyhouse...jeans, ties, bras, PVC etc. but leave any sportswear/tracksuits at home.
The more creative your outfit the better! It gets quite hot and sweaty so cool clothing is the best option. There is a cloakroom for your coats (at a charge).
Don't wear your shiny new shoes! A mysterious black sludge resides on the floors and attaches itself to nice things. Heels are definitely out as the sludge means people are prone to slipping.
