Your average nice school theater. Everything was very clean. Very dated, but the history and…read morearchitecture seem well preserved. Let's see...The bathrooms are clean. The theater seats feel a bit small, like hard wooden airplane seats, but this is kind of expected being that it is an old theater. Recitals, award ceremonies, graduations, speaking engagements...they all would be nice here, but I think theater and music performances might be best enjoyed elsewhere, especially if you're seeking an exceptional acoustic experience. You won't get it at this theater. But it still can serve many delightful purposes. Lots of parking on the mountainside of the building.

I love The Luke! I follow them on Facebook but I also live nearby and can see upcoming events. The…read moreLuke brings an amazing amount of unique events, and many are free! The Luke is a historic theater at Santa Barbara Jr High School with lots of parking a large lobby area. I've attended church services, award ceremonies local dance productions, lectures, symphonies, operas, folklorico performances, etc. at The Luke. The Luke hosts many local groups, which I love, but also brings national and international groups to Santa Barbara. There is always something new and interesting happening at The Luke. The Luke was recently renovated, but still has a vintage feel. It's a gorgeous theater and very comfortable. By request, you can tour the theater and see the ins and outs of The Luke. I was able to go on a tour hosted by the house manager himself and had no idea of the fascinating history of The Luke. I would highly recommend this tour.

A great company that brings art & culture to Santa Barbara, California…read more Small, but mighty, this company brings world class talent to both the Granada & Lobero Theaters - presenting standard operatic masterpieces, as well as new & lesser known musical works. Catering to the regular opera goer, as well as people wanting to explore opera for the first time!

I've seen three performance put on by Opera Santa Barbara and each one was worse than the last, I…read moream VERY sorry to say. I never like writing anything bad about SB, but sometimes it's very much needed. The venue at the Lobero Theatre is small and always fills up. There is enough of a demand to fill a large portion of the Arlington Theatre, a much needed change that would help to raise funds. The sets have all been half-hazard, make shift attempts at stage craft. I've seen better sets at high school plays, it's that bad! The tickets are extremely over priced - I've payed less for Orchestra Center at the SF Opera. I think the problem is one of two things: Either the Opera company does not have the funds to put on a decent show, or they spend what funds they have on dinner parties and out of practice, once mediocre opera singers. Whatever way you look at it, Opera Santa Barbara has a long way to go to catch up to the city's reputation as a world class destination. I really truly hope that Opera Santa Barbara improves with time. I love Santa Barbara and I'd prefer, like anyone else, not to travel to SF or LA to see a decent opera performance. GOOD LUCK!

So when I was looking for a dance studio for my daughter, I wanted the same quality instruction, small classes and creative dance recitals with lots of fun and support. Dance Unlimited fits my requirements perfectly! Lisa, and the other instructors my daughter has taken lessons from, have been just wonderful. I think it especially hard to find someone who really understands tap -- and tap is Lisa's special background. The girls in my daughter's combo ballet/tap class were able to vote if they wanted to do a ballet or tap routine in the holiday recital and they all chose tap! Please come and watch this creative show and support Dance Unlimited! Dos Pueblos High School, Saturday, December 16, 2017 at 6pm-8pm Lisa also does a lot of community outreach and has performed at the farmer's market, Lemon Festival and other events. The prices for classes are very reasonable. This is a great local studio with high quality instruction and lots of heart!
