I had the luck of being a band support member here for the ELO tribute, Evil Woman and thus, this was my personal experience. A beautiful Vaudeville theater built in 1926. Awesome acoustics, huge stage. An authentic theater in all its glory. You don't see many of these art deco gems left, so it's a real treat to see the place shine with lights and music. The whole place had a great vibe, I was impressed with not only the beautiful venue but also the acoustics. The secret sauce is always behind the curtain, tho. The house staff here are the real stars, Queen Charlotte and Sara(h?) really made the green room feel like a home away from home. The back of the house staff was impeccable in every way. Everyone I met was courteous, helpful and professional. It was a great experience to see the place from the front and then the back of the house here. I'll remember it for a long time to come. Highly suggest, would suggest again.

The lady who scanned my ticket was nice. I didn't interact with any other staff member during my time here. Beautiful interior and the performance area is amazing! The seats were comfy!

We attend a show here at least once a year. Parking is always a challenge in the city. Bathrooms are clean and well stocked every time I have needed one. Concessions often sell out so you should purchase at the start of a show instead of hoping to get something during an intermission. Coat check has been available in the past and I have never used it so not sure if it is still available. Two levels of seating, I prefer the upper level but have sat in the lower level before.

What a gem and a historical landmark! I have never experienced a more beautiful, clean, and even spacious theater ever! When one is in consideration of just how old this theater is, it is amazing. The only thing to exceed this is the acoustics and the hospitality of the staff! I look forward to returning very soon!

Lovely theater, beautiful restoration from former movie theater to a live arts performance venue. Sound and lighting were great. Because it's small, there isn't a bad seat in the house. Plenty of restrooms, and concessions on the first and second floors. If there is a performance there that you are interested in, I highly recommend you go.
