The fact is, the theater might just be too small since it's hard to just show up and get tickets-- it's good to pre-order and get your tickets at will-call. I've only seen one play here and it was pretty good. I will update based on quality when I see more productions, but for now, it's one of the better things going in Evansville.

This review is for the Evansville Civic Theater Annex. Being from out-of-town, my sister and I were…read morevery excited to see a showing of "The Outsiders." We followed the directions to the theater according to the website, which of course led us to the original theater, and not the annex. On the website we then found a small blurb about the location being at the Washington Square Mall. After finding the mall, we still could not find the annex, and the theater's website provided no number to call to talk to anyone. We drove around for an hour, and extremely frustrated, missed the show. I had purchased the tickets ahead of time. The lady on the phone could have informed us of the theater's location, or the website could have given clear directions to those of us unfamiliar with the area but wanting to support the theater. Which we still did--the box office manager refused to refund our tickets even after my polite call and e-mail. If we ever make it back to Evansville, we will certainly not be going here.

Grew up going every year and hadn't been able to make it down for close to 10 years, but finally was able to have a homecoming and on their 100th anniversary too! Some favorites include Stromboli's from the TKE booth, fried green beans and mac & cheese from the Vanderburgh Humane Society booth, Italian beef, chicken & dumplings and fried cookie dough. This year I also found a Ski slushy. What's Ski, you ask? It's a lemon lime drink that has a cult following in the tri-state region and one of the only places it's sold. Next October, if you're looking for a fun food time, make the trip to Evansville, grab a munchie map and start walking down Franklin St.!

We've been coming to this fall festival each year able for around a decade. It's become a tradition…read moreto meet up with good friends and check it out, splitting foods and tasting a bit of everything on offer. There are a LOT of food options and while basically NONE of it is healthy, quite a lot of it is TASTY. Plan to bring $50 or so in cash and an appetite. If you're here at a peak busy time there will be a crowd and a line at the more popular booths (e.g. the "Donut Bank Burger"). I will say that in recent years the festival has cleaned up a lot--it used to be overflowing with garbage and just a general mess which in some ways was part of the appeal, it was not formal in any way and it's a people-watching extravaganza. But this recent year (2023) things were orderly, clean, and neat. Some of the booths seemed to be phoning it in a bit, we all had to say (e.g. that aforementioned "Donut Bank Burger" used to be a primary draw for us but this year they didn't even bother to melt the cheese on the burger) but there's still plenty of good food to be had and a lot of churches and charities to support (from across the spectrum, so if choosing to support or not support a specific cause is of interest to you, you can do that).

Nearby Schools allow their students to experience the paint out by letting out school during the First Brush to watch and learn from the artists. My granddaughter goes with her family each year.

The swans were not there the last time we were there. A person from Illinois wanted a picture of the Bridge at New Harmony. We really MISSED not going to the first brush this year

The history of this small town is fascinating and the Owens did a magnificent job of creating and maintaining many original historic buildings. We had some fun by taking a walking tour of the haunted side of New Harmony with the folks at Haunted New Harmony ghost walk. https://jonimayhan.com/ This town is the perfect respite from the everyday hassles of the outside world. It's only an hour+ ride from Garden of the Gods in IL. I was surprised it wasn't more of an arts community hangout. This town has a Woodstock, NY vibe just under the surface.

This annual event draws thousands to the beer garden and tent located right behind the historic Germania Mannerchor building. Entry fee is $4, pitchers of beer $6 (Bud products, Shock Top, Killians, Miller, etc.) with Warsteiner or Becks at $12. Everyone is a friend here....sharing their beer, joining with the band for traditional German toast, and allowing the liquid courage to carry them out on the dance floor for a little "chicken dance" or polka. If you are from Evansville you will definitely run into an old high school friend or maybe even the next door neighbor from years ago. Don't forget to grab a brautwurst with sauer kraut. They have their secret recipe that is only used for this festival...some have wanted them to mass produce and sell into grocery stores, but they always decline. Put it on your calendar for next year -- I believe it is always held on the first weekend of August.

Quick drive down I-64 and found plenty of street parking and parking lots in the general vicinity of the venue. We forgot that Evansville locale is on CST, which is an hour behind our EST zone. We visited a nearby bar/restaurant for a bit and then entered the theater as soon as doors opened. Multiple security checkpoints and scanning of electronic tickets and then we were in a beautiful lobby. Visit to the restroom, which was well maintained and clean, and then we walked to the theater. Several ushers assisted us in locating our seats, which were plush and comfortable in a tiered configuration. The theater is gorgeous, appears opulent with the myriad of gold fixtures and gilded decor, and seems to be a great example of a retro time period from the early 1920's to 1930's. Audio and visuals were excellent during the show. Performers were fantastic in this size of venue, just right. We enjoyed the show and would be happy to return again! :)
