I don't go to plays too often, but every now and then I'll attend one. I went to one for the first…read moretime at the Wichita community theater a couple months ago, and it was overall a very good time. The plays are typically of a good quality here and although there is limited seating, there is a good view no matter where you're seated. It's a very small theater, that admittedly looks like a prison from the outside, but it gets the job done. My only real complaint is that parking around the theater is a bit difficult at times.

The Forum Theatre's production of Elf was just what we needed to kick off the holiday season! The…read morecast was energetic, passionate, and perfect for every role they played. The sets were well done and full of character. The whole performance had us smiling. It was a great take on the now classic movie. The theatre seating is intimate, I can't say there's a bad seat in the house. The concessions were tasty and affordable. The seats themselves are not incredibly comfortable but there was plenty of legroom. My one note of caution is that the theatre is in the middle of an area very heavy populated by the homeless community. Overall, a great experience and a wonderful display of local theatre!

Highest recommendation for Forum Theatre, Wichita. Their…read moreproduction of Titanic was, I have to say, EPIC. I don't use that word lightly. Large cast, nearly 30, costumes incredible from 1st class, long ball gowns & tiaras, 2nd class, the wanna-be's wearing their cheaper finery, and 3rd class hopefuls, traveling with nothing but hopes & dreams for a future. The Titanic staff & crew equally perfectly attired, (ie.number of brass buttons on captains jacket). Stage set, huge open stairways leading to upper decks, to lowest engine room where the stoker "shoveled" coal into red-glowing lighted, really smoking, fire pits. Amazing! But it is the singing and yes dancing, but the voices which carried the story, each word of song perfectly understood. We met the characters, true to real life, and hoped & dreamed with them, learned to love and hate some, as the true details played out. The Tony award winning score made us laugh, then wish for a different ending. We hoped for each, as we listened & watched. We cried for the strength & courage of these men & women, and cheered through tears after the final song. Bravo Forum! Can't wait for your November 5 2022 show, Words & Music of Diana Ross.

This place has terrible sight lines. The seats are on large, flat terraces. Unless you get seats in…read morethe first row of the terrace you won't see anything but the backs of heads.

And bring earplugs. Even comedy shows are too loud.

To celebrate our 29th wedding anniversary tonight we went to the Crown Uptown…read more"Dinner"Theater...well the theater, the performances, the performers were amazing and fantastic, but the dinner...nope! As for what to say about the dinner, (I use that term loosely) my mother told me if I didn't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all! Well...I don't listen to my mother. First, the buffet was served to you only after standing in a line that wrapped around the theater like you were standing in line in a prison or a sad cafeteria, except the food and service at the Crown was worse. The "meal" started with some over cooked mystery meat and a dried up piece of chicken meat (not sure what part of the chicken it was) some mushy vegetables that had the piss cooked out of them, some mashed potatoes that tasted like paste, a cold roll w/cold butter and a salad, no wait...it was just lettuce. To top it all off...it was served on a paper plate. And not one of the the "good" paper plates, one of the plates that can't hold much food without collapsing. But that's ok, because the serving was minimal at best. We only were able to eat part of the "food" and ended up throwing it out in the convenient trash cans spread out around the theater. The show was fantastic and we really enjoyed the performances. The talent of the singing and dancing was very impressive. While we sat in the front row, there didn't appear to be a bad seat in the house. Well, except for the seats on the far left side of the theater, where everyone stands in line to get the incredibly bad meal. If you have seat in this section you will have people standing all around you before the show starts. The bar was quick and attentive with the ability to order from your seat before the show starts and at intermission. They should have more of the food listed on the menu available, but then people would forgo the "dinner". Believe me a frozen pizza, a pretzel or some popcorn from the bar would have been better. My advice to Max Wilson and the other leadership of the theater, you have a GREAT group of performers, shows, venue and volunteers, but you MUST find a better caterer! If you need to, charge a little more and improve the dinning experience that's ok. It would be worth it to complete the experience. That all said, we will be back to see a show, maybe even Elvis in January, but it won't be for dinner. 5 stars for the performances and performers, but 0 stars for the food!

We have been for several years, and I can't believe I haven't posted a review until now. The wait staff is amazing. They are always so attentive. We have the meal option before the show, which is hard to beat, especially in the old town district of Wichita on a Friday or Saturday night. Let alone the Sunday brunch. The shows tend to vary,some are great, some are OK, but we always have fun. We've gotten to know some of the cast, albeit they have never met us. We have our favorites, Kyle, Scott, Julia, Sarah. Dacia is amazing! It's never a bad day. If you're looking for some entertainment and a night out on the town, this is the place to go. Parking across the street is convenient, and I'm not kidding, the wait staff is great. They take care of you through the whole show. Very reasonably priced for what you receive. I can't recommend enough.

What a gem you have there in Wichita, KS! We were passing through town and what a fantastic joint…read morewe had found at the elderslie farm restaurant. Everything was exceptional. Started off with a wonderful fresh herbaceous salad with crisp asparagus and a lively house made vinegar dressing. Although the menu described it as a soup, we were still very happy with what this course and we enjoyed it immensely. The homemade bread was beautifully crafted and had subtle Indian spiced tones. It was warm and fresh. The second course was 3 perfectly cooked scallops on a bed of heavenly mushrooms and oats with a light mushroom sauce. 10/10! I could eat that everyday and it would not become tiresome! For the entree, I had the short ribs, which were melt in your mouth delicious. Meanwhile husband enjoyed the beautifully prepared pork belly. Deserts were not a let down at all. Notably the Carmel sauce and rich chocolate torte was perfectly balanced. We did enjoy the wine pairings, although did wonder why the establishment would choose to serve a heavy red with the scallop course. However it did seem to work in some degree. Points of refinement: I wish the server was more educated on the wines we were served. For example she could only tell us it's a great Cabernet. And when probed for more information, she was not prepared to explain more. Additionally a more detailed explanation about the courses, the ingredients, and the preparation would have been so appreciated. And wrapping up leftovers as a service should be customary. Small points of refinement would elevate the dining experience. The restaurant is warm and welcoming with an abundance of natural light. The decor is beautiful and inviting. The farmhouse factor definitely screams fresh. I hope the chef continues on their journey as this was an unexpected experience not soon to be forgotten. It really was a 5 star meal and i look forward to returning here should I ever return to Wichita.

She meets people where they are. I have taken all the classes offered at Flying Pig as well as workshops. Taking improv classes with Jessie has helped me develop so many transferable skills for composure, relationships, and professional situations. I was also a member of the improv troupe Speak Easy for a while and found it great fun to play and perform with the troupe. I highly recommend you check out Flying Pig. Drop-in classes are only $10, the first class is free and there is no pressure to be funny. You just show up, be present, and funny will happen. A drop-in improv class can seem like a mini-vacation from the everyday chaos of life. You can be in a class and worrying about things outside class. It can be a great escape when you need one. Taking improv classes can help you to embrace mistake and learn to fail fast and get right back up. Mistakes are celebrated and that's a healthy thing for anyone trying to strive and live their best life.
