The theater itself is nice and cozy, but there are a few things that could be improved…read more There is no restroom inside the theater so you have to exit the theater and use one of the restrooms nearby, they're not far so that's not the problem. What's annoying is you have to go through security every time you re-enter it isn't like you come out and get your hand stamped so you can get back in quickly. We didn't realize when we left the theater, so when we got in the show early there was no line, then realized there was no restroom so we left to use them before the show started and then were told by the annoyed security employee we had to get in line to get back in, by this time the line was fairly long. This particular show didn't have servers for drink orders, not sure if that's standard or not. The small "bar" is a podium with rolling carts filled with ice so the selections are limited and the canned/bottled drinks cost ~$12 and up. This was ok because it's faster to get your own drinks but I wish the selection was bigger. When I picked my seats online the floorplan did not match what the seating was in person. I purposely picked a section that appeared to have cushioned chairs and a small cocktail table but when we got there my section was actually rows of folding chairs. I loved the show and I'm sure Mohegan has gotten this feedback several times, especially about the bathrooms but the Cabaret has been there for years and years so I'm surprised these problems haven't been fixed. I would go to a show here again because it's nice to be in a smaller venue than the arena but I wish I knew these things before we went so hopefully this will help someone else be prepared.

This is a great intimate style theater. I would guess it probably holds around 250 people…read more When I think of a cabaret theater - I think of plush deep red chairs and very dim lighting. Their interior was more golds and classy looking - it really worked well. They have table seating with some round style booths. Not a bad seat in the place. My only complaint would be that having tables right against the stage is a little awkward for people depending on where the stage performance is taking place you have to crank your neck to try and see - there is not enough room to turn your chairs. They have a bar right inside which is very convenient but no restrooms.

Get there early to get a parking spot! It's a cute area to walk around on a nice day, or the bar opens well before the show and there are nice velvet couches to hang out on. I don't know how often they have shows here, but I would definitely go back!

The theater is more intimate, and you can see pretty much anywhere you sit. Stairs are required for going upstairs, and the seats are a little looser up there. Some are padded benches.

I was fortunate enough to have one of my plays included in the 2008 Playwrights' Conference, and…read moresince the playwrights are asked to stay for an entire month (even though our own workshops are only 1 week), I got to have the full-on O'Neil experience. While in Waterford I saw an extremely diverse batch of plays (in terms of style, content, and execution), a handful of so-new-they-wrote-the-music-yesterday musicals, and all kinds of special panels and events -- all worth the price of admission. The staff at the O'Neill were beyond friendly, and the creative team we worked out for my play were top-notch. My room in the cottage did what it needed, and a bit more by being a mere 50 feet from Blue Gene's Pub. The productions at the O'Neill are workshops, meant to help their creators refine and develop the work. Consequently, the actors have scripts in hand and the design is only sketched out. I thought this meant things would be pretty rudimentary, but I was surprised time and again at how there were just enough elements present to allow me to imagine a full production. The work they do is truly remarkable. I haven't a negative thing to say. If you can make it up, catch a show. You won't be disappointed.

This theater is no exception when it comes to great productions, creative and talented performers, and events that go on all year round. The Windham Theatre Guild offers plays, musicals, concerts, special events, and a HUGE indoor tag sale that happens every January. There is something available for every age and stage of life. Tickets can be purchased at the door most of the time. The old velvet covered seats as well as the local Hosmer Mountain Soda that's available during the intermission are sure to bring a smile to your face if you remember the days when theaters had these things to see and drink. You'll also get personal service with REAL people when you get ushered to your seat, given your snacks that you can eat during the performance (yes!), and an opportunity to enjoy yourself in a very intimate setting. Often times there is art work on the walls around the theater so there is the possibility of a gallery showing during your attendance at a performance. Some of the art could also be available for sale at times. Be on the look out for good stuff! You'll also see Playbills of performances that have been done through the years. Since 1985, the WTG has been delighting audiences who have attended their performances and events. My only qualm is that it can be tough to afford on a regular basis, although I would not begrudge and artist his or her due! I've had the pleasure to both accompany and perform on stage in the past. And before and/or after a performance, check out all the great flavors on Main Street. Let me know if you are coming to town so I can meet you! http://www.windhamtheatreguild.org/

Then we waited in a line to board the shuttle bus to take us to the Fairgrounds..about a 10 or so minute ride. Bag check before entering and paying $20 admission fee. It was crowded and proceeded to get more crowded as the hours passed. Lines for almost all vendors were very long. To get into the beer tent was extremely long so we did not even bother (plus ID must be shown and we did not bring ours). We ate a few things and all was expensive. The loaded tater tots were really good, although $14. Fried dough $12 and corn dog $8. Yikes. We caught a few songs when Styx performed. We visited the animals and some other exhibits. We played a few games, but they were so costly and all gave cheap prizes. Overall we did have a good time, but leaving was a nightmare. There were long lines to get to the shuttle buses to get back to the parking area. We waited at least 1 hour. All the vendors and exhibits had already closed. Once we were back at the parking lot it took another 40 min to get out! Not sure the crowds and expense are worth it, so not sure we will come again.
