love this place!
just everything!!! from music to live perform to NOW showing movies.
This is such a beautiful historical theater. I'm with friends who remember coming here years ago. Today is my first time; waiting for Susan Boyle. If you come to an event and park in Horton Plaza's parking structure, be sure to buy the parking ticket inside the theater. The savings could get you an after party snack. ;-)
Went to see Jane Lynch last night and the theater and staff were awesome! The seats were great! Unfortunately the show itself was terrible. We thought we were going to see stand up by the amazing Jane Lynch. Instead we sat through a jamboree style show that lacked any good comedy. Her niece however, has a wonderful voice!
I visited here for the third time this past week. It's a stellar theater with almost all the bells and whistles of a major Broadway theater. The staff helped me get to my seat easily and parking was reasonable. The only killer was the 12 dollar charge for a VERY VERY VERY small glass of champagne. All the alcohol was overpriced but I understand you gotta make money somehow!
