I recently attended a concert at the Miracle Theater in Inglewood to see my friend Kobie Dozier and…read morehis band perform, and I had a great experience! The theater itself is fantastic. There really isn't a bad seat in the house, and the sound quality is impeccable. The venue has a unique seating setup where you purchase tickets by section rather than by individual seat, and then choose your seats within that area. I actually loved that arrangement because it offered some flexibility while still keeping things organized. The staff and owners were incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful in person, which made the experience even better. My only frustration was trying to contact the theater beforehand. Their phone recording instructs callers to leave a message, but the beep never comes, making it impossible to actually leave one. I also didn't receive a response to my email inquiry. If you have questions before an event, that can be a little irritating. That said, once you're there, the experience is wonderful. Great venue, great atmosphere, and excellent acoustics. I'd definitely return for another show!

A very memorable experience indeed. The event "Church" was led by Cory Henry who is )I believe - he…read moreis very modest indeed!) a 5 time Grammy winner. We had met him at another event in Beverly Hills a few weeks before, chatted with him (a really great guy as well as a great jazz musician). We signed up for the entire event from the soundcheck which was an amazing show (with the choir) in its own right - and there were relatively few people in the audience (in total I think the venue seats 228 people. BTW there is ample parking all around if you are willing to walk a block. The soul food buffet was very good, and even included a glass of wine, beer or soda. Would we return? Absolutely and

If you are familiar with underground hip hop in LA, or have a curiosity to learn more about it, this is the place you want to check out. The likes of Freestyle fellowship, the Nonce, J5, Ahmad, Volume 10, Busdriver, Abstract Rude, and the list goes on, came up and honed their skills here. The place was like the Harlem of Hip Hop at it's prime. I love the area of Leimert Park itself because it is one of the few places around LA that embraces the cultural music, art and voice of the African American/Black community and many if not all the shops or venues are Black owned. Sad to say, but that is a rarity in LA, but the beautiful part is that it is still around and here for anyone to enjoy and appreciate.

Be careful when you're walking down the ramp to get to your seats, especially if you are visually challenged. The parking is not so great located down the road near the railroad tracks which does not accommodate the whole theatre. Nearby parking is reserved for handicapped. The theatre is located in the middle of an industrial area. As far as a playhouse is concerned, it seems to be catered to mostly older people. Production of "Next to Normal" was a bit disappointing. Missing from the forces of instruments was an electric guitar, cello, and xylophone. I know this because I have a copy of the complete score as part of my studies. There were many botched lines and one of the actors messed up on his lyrics. Because of the lack of parking and because of where it is situated, I've given this location a one out of five stars. I will not be coming back due to rude clientele, and uncomfortable seats. There was an older grey haired woman who was constantly fidgeting and shuffling her feet during the performance seated two chairs to my left, with one extra chair separating us. While I was trying to read my program using a dimmed light that did not reflect towards her, she had the nerve to grab my hand telling me to stop. The chairs are not jogged so that your view is obscured my the person directly in front of you. At intermission I switched chairs with my husband. No one has the right to touch anyone else without permission. Save your money by not patronizing this theatre. It isn't worth it.

She's belligerent, obnoxious and has a potty mouth. She was very unprofessional. The scheme is this, she has two sides to the venue. When I called her on the phone she gave me a price of $2,500. However, when my niece arrived to the venue and gave her a $500 deposit, so the next day I went down there to see and that's where the games begin if you want both sides you have to pay $3,800, she said 4000 so in actuality, she gave me a discount LOL. I spoke to several people that had weddings, and we pass for the loved ones and they only pay $2,000, lady took advantage of my broken heart and my vulnerability. I am going to report her I'm going to get my money back and I suggest anyone do not do business with this shyster she has no compassion for no One, she is truly money hungry.
