American Conservatory Theater

If you'd like a nice drink and refreshment at intermission , be sure to order ahead of time. Not only will you get a nice table to sit at, you won't need to stay in line ...

Front row balcony seats have severely obscured views by the railings . You'll have to peek at the actors through the gaps!

It’s a nice theater . Feel as though the productions don’t have the financing they once did. Production value from sets to the costumes it was a low budget affair.

My first here to see Soul Train The Musical . Nice theater our seats were high up but not bad.

You can order your intermission cocktail before the show starts so it's ready right at the break.

If you're sitting in the first four rows in orchestra , be sure to use the bathroom before the show. Won't be able to return to your seat if you use the bathroom during the show.

The balcony is fine, just stay away from the outside edges right at the railing ...the lights hanging below the ledge get in the way of the stage.

The bar has the best drinks in town . Especially the vodka gimlet and the dirty martini . (not to mention the great plays.)

Not a fan of a lot of the plays produced by ACT. Beautiful venue. Shows that tour there/are brought in by other companies are much better.

Make sure you go downstairs to get hot drinks

Last Tuesday of each run has a free wine tasting on the 3rd floor.

The orchestra section is small so seats toward the middle are best.

Yep, you can bring drinks inside the theater

For each play, A.C.T. offers one "pay what you wish" night. See their website for details and get there early! Read more

Don't miss Tales of the City ! Great musical !

Scapin with Bill Irwin is fantastic. Lots of laughs, and a nice adaptation of Moliere's work.

Good drinks before theater performance

If you qualify for the student discount , utilize it.

Do not miss Scapin at ACT. Directed by and starring Bill Irwin , it represents clown at the highest level.
