Chico Theater is always amazing! Always a friendly hello and welcome I have never been disappointed. The snack bar is fantastic! If you have never been PLEASE come see what you are missing, the 2026 line up is fantastic read more

We are season ticket holders because we love theater and want to support the arts. CTC has a very dedicated group of actors and actresses who can be very talented when given the chance. But the Board and Directors have to start choosing better quality shows. I know purchasing the rights to a show is expensive but I'd rather see four quality shows in a year than several subpar shows. Today we left at intermission the show was so bad (Musical of all Musicals). We have never left early before but this show did a huge disservice to all involved. read more

I love community theatre and this place does not disappoint. They put on mostly quality performances and have a great atmosphere. All of the shows we've seen have had a good size audience. Their snack-bar and bar have a great selection. Bathrooms are clean. Lobby is lively. Board members are friendly. I recommend rows D-H. I will say out of the 12 or so shows we've seen there, about 10 have been excellent. It's such a blessing to have things like this to enjoy on the weekends. read more

Chico Theater Company - Row G, Seat 16 looking at the stage. - Cinema Near Me - Chico, California

Best Theater in 100 miles! So friendly and makes you feel like your family. Great concessions and a full bar! Great kids programs and the talent they find for the performances is AMAZING!! and the price of the tickets is incredibly cheap for the experience. You will not be disappointed. read more

Vulgar, poor taste productions. My mom loves to go to plays and we've seen great plays in Sacramento and San Francisco. The shows here are noticeably tainted with an unnecessary degree of sexual provocative material read more

I am a season ticket holder, so clearly I enjoy coming here. The atmosphere is great, the actual theatre/stage area/seating area is great, and I love that they sell concessions. As for the shows--they're pretty good. I have seen some great ones here and some ones that were kind of "eh". With the loss of Chico Cabaret in the community, the CTC has become my go-to place for live theater, so I guess I tend to measure all of their shows up against the absolute genius I am used to from Cabaret. I loved seeing the "school" version of Les Miz here a few years ago, even though everyone in the cast had braces it was a very heart filled production. I have seen dozens of other pretty good shows, too. The worst show I ever saw here was Clue: The Musical (what a load of junk that was--still wish I could get a refund...). Hopefully the 2013 season is amazing because they have some great stuff lined up. read more

I saw Young Frankenstein at the Chico Theater Company last Friday night when visiting my sister, and if you have the chance you MUST go see this production before it closes on Nov 10th! I'd never seen this show before and CTC did an amazing job executing the production. While they didn't seem to have very much space or many resources to work with, the set was interesting and creative. While the performance I saw had a few technical mistakes, it didn't detract from my overall enjoyment of the production. The main cast was OUTSTANDING - especially Igor! I thought the cast did a great job selling all of the sex jokes inserted by Brooks and occasionally toned it down a little bit for a more PG-13 audience. If you like Mel Brooks movies, this show is for you. Also - please support this company! I wasn't expecting much when I first sat down, but they did a great job and I can't wait to see another performance here! read more

We have been attending shows at Chico Theater Company for approximately 15 years. We have such great talent in Chico and the shows are terrific! A great variety between musicals and non-musicals--it feels like home every time we are there. There is a full bar and great treats at the concession stand! If you have kiddos, there is a wonderful children's program as well. Support local arts in Chico by attending a show at CTC. read more

Such a great gem if Chico. The shows are fun, and their kids program is awesome.

I love Chico Theater Company! I've been to many performances here and I can tell you they really put on a great show. I've seen Fiddler, Grease, and the Wizard of Oz, to name a few and every time the local cast really seems to put their hearts into it. It's a family oriented theater, so it's good clean fun for all ages. If you're in the mood for a really good time or need a great idea for a date night, give them a shot. You'll be glad you did! read more

Great directors, actors, fun shows, best that there is :)

What a great theater. Went and saw a great show. The cast was wonderful. If you want a great place to go on a Friday or Saturday night and its not downtown make sure you stop by. The prices are reasonable and always a great show. read more
