The middle and back of the lower balcony are perfect places to sit - the acoustics are magnificent and the view of the stage is perfect.

Thomas Brown

A majestic venue in the center of Raleigh. It is unfortunate that the state of the facilities is so poor...lacking HVAC , inadequate rest rooms in a state of disrepair, etc.

Parking area right across from the center, bring cash, worth the cost to be close, lots of handicapped parking spots .
