Of course we had to take some pics of the grand tree!🎄We attended a concert here and there wasn't a bad seat in the house. The audio and visuals were great. If you like a little drinky poo before your show, (like me) the concession stands had mixed drinks, wine, seltzers and beer. And the prices were not ridiculously overly priced. I also cannot pass up the mention of the ladies bathrooms- very nice and very clean. This place checks all the boxes. All in all, a great venue! I will definitely come back to check out another production in the future!"

The staff exhibit great hospitality, they're all very welcoming and knowledgeable. They were able to help find my seat when I arrived slightly late to the event The theatre itself is well designed with wide aisles and the same beautiful and detailed friezes and bas reliefs. They do a lot of local events that make use of the theatre space, which makes it a great local institution"
