The Nebraska Reparatory Theatre is a Lincoln gem hidden in plain sight. This professional theatre…read moregroup is housed in the Temple Building immediately across the street (to the east) from the Lied Center and immediately across the street (to the south) from UNL's campus and old CBA. This professional theatre partners closely with the University. The Executive Director of the Nebraska Repertory Theatre is also the Director of UNL's Johnny Carson School of Theatre and Film. I learned all of these things recently after a friend invited me to attend a performance of Sense and Sensibility in the Howell Theatre. The cast and crew was a combination of professionals and students, and the show was great. Tickets are reasonably priced. Check it out!

This is one of those places you could walk by many times and not realize it's there (probably…read morebecause it's up on the second floor of the building). But what do I know, living in Omaha there's not even a chance I'd have walked by here had I not been wandering around this building for work. Talking to some of the Haymarket staff during my wanderings, I learned that Hamlet was coming in February. Being a bit of a Shakespeare fan I planned a weekend trip for Bill and I down to Lincoln. Seats were cheap ($15/p) which is a great value for the entertainment we received. They have a small snack bar with adult beverages, which you can take into the theater. Seating is all open, and it wasn't too crowded - even on a Saturday night. This is what I'd call a casual type of theater. Interesting thing, we were some of the older crowd here also. But anyway, a good time was had.

Nice space with comfortable seating. The main floor doesn't have much slope, so a short person like…read moreme may be better off in the balcony. Hot tip: the door number on your ticket is for once you get in the building. Everyone enters on the East side of the building, then there are different doors to get from the main lobby to the auditorium. They have plenty of ushers to help you find the right spot.

We had a great time seeing Weird Al here! It's a pretty large space; next time there is a show here…read moreI want to see, I will buy tickets when they first go on sale. Parking before the show was easy, lots of people to wave us in to the right spaces. Unfortunately most of those attendants were nowhere to be seen AFTER the show. And that was frustrating because it was really a huge cluster of cars. REALLY. Fortunately the parking is free. The Bowl is part of a park that is really nice, with a pond, beautiful trees, and an interesting display of huge old columns. So if you are there early you can wander around. The seats though. We were in the last row, and obviously the Bowl did not have quite enough of the regular chairs, so those of us in the way back were on these white folding chairs that definitely appeared narrower and less comfortable than the black chairs that all the other rows have. It was warm and we were REALLY close to each other. Food and drink is available. I believe the site says you can bring in an empty plastic water bottle. Though apparently it needs to be CLEAR and not opaque plastic and that is ridiculous. Thinking about it now I'm going to take off another star for that, since we were not allowed to bring our water bottle in and they were jerks about it honestly.

What a small and unique music venue…read more It doesn't look like much, but it produces five star events featuring some of entertainment's biggest names. Stage, sound and lights are world class. Whoever you come to see will look and sound good. Portable seats are brought in every show. They're semi small and they're packed close together. I've seen skinnier days, so I did my best to make myself small. Please beware if you're in a similar weight class. You may want to buy early, so you can find seats on an aisle. I couldn't find bathrooms. Somebody in another review said there were real bathrooms on site, so I guess if you know you know. Luckily there are a few porta potty farms with sinks. Lines formed, however they moved quickly and even though some of us may have had some adult beverages, everybody behaved themselves. I didn't see any food, but I did find some beverage stands. They seemed to be fully stocked with the normal beer and cocktail brands. Expect to pay inflated music venue prices. Parking is easy, but there are only a few ways into the venue, so it will take a while. Please give yourself plenty of time to travel.
