    Box seating
    Alicia M.

    We went on a Sunday afternoon for a showing of Dreamgirls. Parking was plenty. The show wasn't full, but even with a full house, I can't imagine having a problem parking. However, getting out of the parking lot after the show took some time. The building is beautiful, clean, modern and very well designed. We chose balcony seating due to the price and figured we'd still be able to see the stage from the 2nd row. The view was okay, with minimal interference from the person's head in front of me. The audio was terrible. No one could understand what they were saying when the orchestra was playing. The music was so loud and the actors really low. It sucked, because I feel like it ruined what could have been a good show. Due to that reason, I'm uncertain whether I would attend another performance here.

    On the south side of Airline Drive, next to the minor league baseball stadium is this building. I had seen it before, but never really paid attention to it, or was curious as to what it was. Well, I was wrong for not being curious, and I am sorry. It has no dedicated parking lot from what I can see, but I parked in the lot for the stadium next door. I came on a Saturday as a friend got tickets for the LPO to play the soundtrack while Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone was playing. AMAZING. Our seats were house left, in the box. Some of the view was blocked by a wall, but it was wonderful. Everything was beautiful. The walls, the carpet, the seats. Again, it was amazing. There was a souvenir table with all things Potter, a small bar with snacks. I really can not recommend this place enough. There is an elevator for handicapped, a sloped walkway for handicapped. The seating for handicapped is tricky. I look forward to coming back and seeing future shows here. You do not have to pay for parking, and get first class entertainment without the hassle of going downtown. AMAZING!

    Really nice seating. It can fit ~300people excluding upper seating

    This place is really nice. I expect a lot of theater, performances, conferences, and more to be seen here in the near future. I felt like I was at the academy awards. We came here for a convention, so there was no alcohol (fortunately or not). This is the first big event the arts center is holding so five stars for feeing honored, for cleanliness, for the aesthetics, the free doughnuts, and the piano music while we waited for the convention to begin. Two stars for not having hot chocolate, back to five stars because apparently 99% of the people here preferred the coffee you provided.

    Overzealous security team. Won't allow food or drink inside but only offer hotdogs for athletes to eat. Loading dock is a huge pain.

    The small theater that could! This space (really 2 small…read moretheaters across a courtyard from each other) is a lovely space to catch local theater. They have a decent selection of shows that highlight local talent. In December I saw a local interpretation of It's a Wonder Life, entitled It's a Wonderful Life, Y'all and resets the action to New Orleans with many local nods and jokes. The production creativity was great. The whole show was put on by 5 actors which was amazing. And the sets and props were standouts. The main theater holds over 300 seats and the Lagniappe theater is smaller. The night I was there, the theater was packed but still comfortable and the theater is fully accessible for those using wheelchairs. There was also a concession stand selling snacks and mulled wine. Definitely a fun spot to spend an evening.

    Highly love the Rivertown Threater in Kenner. The staff was excellent during a wonderful play that…read moreBecky Allen had written in the past when all of a sudden one of the viewers had what was thought to be a seizure. The actors stopped immediately. Staff came in and helped people in the audience went outside to direct the ambulance and police. While another young lady ran to a local fire station within the block. Love this community and the place here are definitely worth it for a local flair of theater with a Broadway flair.
