One fateful day ten years ago a family friend (a professor of dance at USC) upon hearing of our…read moreyoung daughter's enthusiasm for all things theater, suggested we look into 'Theatre 360' in Pasadena and noted that for kids who are serious about theater there isn't a comparable program in the San Gabriel Valley. That amazing piece of advice, so many years ago, changed our daughter's life, and our family's, for the absolute best. For the past decade we have had the absolute honor and privilege of being able to engage our daughter in classes and shows that have grown her in every aspect of her physical, mental, social and creative life - on and off the stage. Theatre 360's entire approach is to develop a child's talents and one only has to see a class showcase or a watch one of their amazing productions to realize that tangible growth is possible over the course of a just few weeks, be it a summer or winter camp and even more so over the course of months in a semester class. When we first started at Theatre 360 we were amazed at the poise and maturity of the older teens in the program and we wondered how these older theater kids had grown-up to all be so well spoken and capable, but now, after years of living and loving her rich theater experiences at Theatre 360, we have found our own child has learned and grown to have that same maturity and poise and we could not be more thankful. For my daughter over the years at Theatre 360 the experience - be it in classes, in a production, or helping backstage -the experience has been one of constant renewal of her interest, drive and enjoyment of theater. We have been floored by the endless energy she brings to her theater work, her drive to push herself to improve, her expanding interests in the deep details of performance, dance, voice, staging, costumes, etc and her deep delight of the entire process every day. Theatre 360 for a decade has been our daughter's second home and we could not be more happy to have been so fortunate to have found it.

Came here to watch a high school performance if Miss Saigon. The performance was wonderful and the…read morehigh school kids were really very good. The set was well made and had good props and lighting. The only thing is since there is no assigned seating, the main area gets very crowded quickly whether its the middle or even the side aisles. That leaves the 2nd floor level. It would've been wonderful if all the seats had a good vibe of the stage. But if you were unlucky enough to sit in the seats closest to the stage, you lose sight of what's going on. My recommendation is to arrive early so you can sit in the main hall. Every seat there has a great view of the stage. If you have to sit upstairs, make sure to sit where you have a direct view of the stage. If you end up sitting on the ends, you have an impaired view of the stage and you miss seeing part of what's going on because it is blocked so everyone is leaning forward to try and see what they're missing. Good theater. Nice acoustics. Parking is pretty tight but there is extra available parking at the high school and on the street.

Save your money! Last quarter I signed my son for the classes and since we are in the pandemic, I…read moreunderstood for the beginning that everything was going to be recorded, with the slightly possibility that they will have a live presentation before Christmas, which didn't happened. The classes were expensive $690 (including workshop materials) - for art of acting and $790 (including workshop materials) - for musical theatre. We chose the musical theatre, since my son loves musicals and we wanted to give it a try. From my son perspective, he enjoy the classes and had a great time; although he felt there was too much free time doing nothing. Classes were offered on sat from 8:30am-12:30pm. I asked my son to be open minded and give it a try. By the 5th class, I asked my son if they were using any props or workshop materials and he said no. Then I thought, ok maybe at the end they will provide the workshop materials or scenography or costumes. But the day of the presentation came, nothing was provided to the kids. The worst part is that my son was out of the camera vision (even though he said he was in the point he was instructed) and we ended up seeing nothing on the video link they sent us. It is the worst money spent. We try to spoke with the teacher twice and requested at least the 50% refund, since she did not provided what was promised to us. We had never been in this situation before. We love our community and our area. We like the teacher and understand the pandemic situation. However, that doesn't give her the right to keep the money for a job not well done. Specially if she noticed and email us replying that she wouldn't like to redo the whole thing only for one kid, but didn't offer any other solution and when we requested the money back, she just ignored us. Not professional, not nice to act like that. We of course wont be back and next time we will carefully check reviews of other places before we signed my son for this classes.

Garden Bros. Circus is currently at the Santa Anita racetrack for 2 weeks, until May 11th. Then…read morethey pack up and move on to the next location: Fresno, CA. You can easily see their huge tent while driving near the mall. Parking is $20. There's no street parking that's within a short walk so you're at their mercy. But the lot is big and it's just a short walk into the tent. We went on a weeknight and it was about 10-15% capacity. Outside of the event, there are inflatable jumpers, slides, pony rides and other activities mainly for little kids, and you have to buy tickets. Upon entering, there's a merch area for branded clothing, light-up toys and other random things you can buy. Next, concession stands that sell everything from cotton candy to drinks or sno-cones. Maybe it was a weeknight but only a few people bought their stuff. Inside the tent, the staff will guide you to your seats. There's a VIP area by the stage but you can clearly see all the action just about anywhere. Just don't get the seats in the corners where the stage starts. The acts are based on movie themes, and they cover about a dozen (give or take). Some are way better than others. There's an intermission mid-point when they keep reminding you to go spend money by buying merch, get snacks or take photos with the performers. The staff also walks around during the performance hawking more merch. If you want to take a picture with their dancing dogs, that's $14. I assume it's the same with everyone else. The 2nd part is way better than the first: More action, more thrills. This is nowhere near the Cirque du Soleil caliber, but for us, it was a fun change to an otherwise routine weeknight with the kiddo. It was near our home, easy parking and very entertaining at times.

*wrote review on their main Yelp page but adding it to Arcadia, CA Yelp*…read more TL;DR: I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS CIRCUS DURING THE HOT/WARM WEATHER. False advertising with the "temperature controlled tent" posted on their site. As first time circus goers, really horrible experience for us 05/10/2025 @ 1:30pm show in Arcadia, CA This review is solely on the people running this event. On the website it clearly states "temperature controlled tent" it was definitely NOT. Outside temp was 99 degrees, inside the tent was for sure 10 degrees hotter. They had some tiny fans that did NOTHING. There was ZERO airflow. Literally everyone was dripping sweat just sitting there... Imagine the performers???!?? with their costumes, makeup and all!!!?!???? A ton of people left during remission. Conditions were very dangerous (heat stroke vibes) no refunds or ability to come for later show either. The performances were great but hard to enjoy. The performers really gave it their all........ Like other reviews mentioned, EVERYTHING iS s00000 pricey (water, snacks, games etc) supposed to be no outside food or drinks-however, I did see a lot of people with their own water bottles (we brought ours in too) as we all should! Given the conditions of their event-someone in the audience (or even on of their own) could've had a heat stroke and Garden Brothers would've had something else coming (if you know what I mean) Parking was $20 which was steep. Lots of hidden fees regarding the "free child" ticket. Also, not worth paying the "VIP" experience as there are no "bad" seats. I will suggest though, that sitting front, stage center is probably a better spot than on the sides of the stage We will not be doing another Garden Brothers circus again.
