My friend and I had the best time and are so happy to have something like this locally. I'm from Southern California and she is from NYC and literally thought the actors could easily find their place in our local theater companies back home. Can't wait for the next performance.

We've been here a few times for various concerts-performances over the years...most recently, for…read moreKing Crimson and Beethoven Symphony #5...and I've been meaning to write a review, so here goes. First of all, I really like this theater. Of course it's not as big as Blumenthal (Belk), but I love the size of this theater. Due to its size, you always get a good view of the stage wherever you sit (especially referring to the rows downstairs). Also, it's a really nice, clean theater (think renovated recently...but I could be wrong). One thing that could use some improvement is the spacing between the rows of seats. It's so tight, it's truly hard to get past folks in the same row...say, if you arrive a bit late, or is trying to get out! I also noticed that for the last visit, there were some chairs out in the lobby...Yay to that! Lastly, I also like the acoustics at this theater. Everything seems to be on point However, there are a few things that I found a bit offputting. For this last performance, they didn't 't allow any photography now (even without flash?)...which I don't quite get. I DID manage to take a few pics, but before the show started. Good thing...'cuz I didn't realize it was forbidden. Maybe I didn't know any better, but I recall taking pics during the performances in the past. Maybe it's a new policy...or maybe it depends on the performance?? Last thing I wanted to mention was that after the show, there's this sense that they want us out quickly...as in pronto! I don't understand why the place can't be more hospitable, and stay open for at least 30 minutes after the concert...so folks can chat, drink, etc.etc. I mean, it was Saturday night...and really not that late either! On this last concert (Beethoven Symphony #5), they sort of bum-rushed us out by 9:45 pm (concert ended at around 9:30 pm)...and I was basically the last person inside...Why? I was waiting for my husband to pick me up in the car, and I didn't want to stand outside in the cold. Well, at 9:45 pm, I noticed that I was the last one in the place, and the ushers were sort of giving me the eye...basically bum-rushing me out! WOW. I don't recall that happening at any other late-night venue in town...where folks are encouraged to leave only 10-15 minutes, following a concert. So anyway, that's my take on the place. 5 stars for the space, cleanliness and acoustics...but 2 stars for service (not sure how I'd describe this rushing folks out part lol!). Since I'm a fan of this theater, I'll still drop 4 stars...but just wanted to mention that I'm NOT a fan of the near-rude service after the performance.

The actors were extraordinary and did not take away from the original show! They actually inspired and enhanced. The theater has all the attributes of a larger theater just down scaled. Smaller rest rooms, concession stand, and of course smaller space. I was able to see very well from row G. There is Left (L) and Right seating but with the same alphabet/numbering system, so there were a few people that was a bit confused as to where they should sit. Limited parking on the premises, but there is street parking. I would recommend support small local theatre as much as one can. They have a variety to select from as well as season passes. A great way to spend an afternoon.

On my most recent visit, the vending machines were broken (couldn't get a drink or a snack). The facility is modern and clean. The only thing is that while you can take drinks into the auditorium, you cannot take food/snacks. This was a bummer, especially on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon before dinnertime. They have someone sitting at the door to stop you. I strongly suggest you check the campus map so that you know where you are going prior to arrival so that you can park in the right location.

The seating and layout of the auditorium are totally appropriate for this type of venue. The only downside is the parking situation. Because the campus is bursting at the seams, the parking lots keep getting pushed further away from the campus. However, that is really a minor inconvenience, so I would definitely come back to see future performances here.

It's a small theater, and the crowd is encouraged to participate by throwing out topics or may even be asked to come up on stage and assist with a game (don't worry - they ask for volunteers).

By attending, you're supporting local, live theater, which is a great thing to do! Also, if you're interested in learning how to do improv and potentially performing someday, they offer improv classes for all levels.

The show itself was hilarious, with great audience interaction and fun seating options. While I'm sure the seating may get changed up a bit for each run, my girlfriends and I sat together at a few small round tables near the front. There is also a bit of stadium like seating near the back. As mentioned, this is the perfect venue to be super close to the action on stage and actually interact with the actors. In Shear Madness, one of the characters (police office) came out to the bar area during intermission and continued to interview the witnesses. I really appreciate small venues like this that show kitschy shows. Here's hoping I'll catch more cool shows at the Stage Door Theater!
