I had the greatest opportunity to perform on this stage. The staff at this theatre was wonderful. The stage is quite spacious. and the seating is very intimate. On my offdays, I watched another cast perform and I sat in several different seats. Every seat had a great view of the stage and the sound and lighting was excellent.

I hightly recommend anyone that is putting on a production to rent this theatre!
