Amazing. Go here. The actors are so talented and sing and play instruments before shows and at intermission. So fun! So good!

CJ Cramer

There are 8-10 seats right on the stage, and before the start of every show they give away any empties! Get a few lines delivered right to you.

Mike G

By far the greatest love show experience. Every time I'm in town I have to catch a show... Or two. Top notch actors and a great atmosphere.

Carol Jones

Such a wonderful place. It's lovely inside and the plays, as well as the actors , are fabulous!

Gorgeous location. Taming of the Shrew was interactive so come ready to participate and laugh.

If you have a Student ID, student rush tickets are $12. Also - be sure to get there early for the preshow music .
