A small theatre for smaller audiences…read more CAA Theatre was the venue where we caught the Cat Kid Comic Club The Musical as well as its related Dogman The Musical. The shows were catered to kids who were already fans of Cat Kid and Dogman, featuring many outlandish songs and fun acts. The short show kept the audience quite engaged. Dogman featured a short intermission for refreshment. There's a small refreshment and souvenir stand at the entrance just before the main theatre. The theatre itself is smaller than some of the other Mirvish theatres in town. It has a dark high ceiling similar to other modern musical or movie theatres without the grand decor. The washrooms are situated in the basement. It's a no frills venue that does the job of hosting smaller broadway shows. Just be careful not to mistaken it for CAA Ed Mirvish Theatre that is several streets south. Parking is available at the Charles Street Green P garage nearby. Skip it or hit it? It's fine to catch a short show, just don't expect a fancy Mirvish theatre experience.

I've had very few opportunities to see theatre at the Jane Mallett theatre, but when I have, the…read moretheatre performed was excellent and was in no way hindered by the venue. Broken into different levels with a balcony also available, the theatre has great acoustics and is accommodating to full scale productions or single one-man shows. I have had the opportunity to perform on the stage on a stand-up comedy show with comics from Scotland. Having worked at the theatre right beside this one, the Bluma Appel theatre (http://www.yelp.ca/biz/bluma-appel-theatre-toronto), being able to perform on the stage itself in the theatre complex that once employed me was a very cool thing. The sound system and acoustics are great for performances with a single microphone or full-scale theatrical productions. As with the Bluma Appel theatre, there are no obstructions in your way at all. Sight lines are clear of distraction, and give you full view of the stage in theatre itself. No problems here.

My husband and I went to see Guilt (A Love Story), and we really enjoyed the humorous/dramatic storyline. There is ample parking in a lot across the street, and a bar offering drinks/snacks.

Don't be expecting great comfy movie theatre style padded chairs, but you trade that off for being in an intimate space with decent acoustics that doesn't require electrical amplification. To go or not to go? That's really not the question.

We caught several broadway shows at this vast venue, including Peter Pan. We were impressed by the aerial lifts, dynamic backdrop and the swift Tinker Bell glow. The modern special effects of the show are a neat contrast to the 1920s architectural styles and decor of the historic building. The theatre has been kept in pristine condition, and the seats are comfortable. The foyer can hold a packed crowd during intermission, and features a grand staircase & concessions. Note the current theatre name is CAA Ed Mirvish Theatre but be careful not to mix this up with Mirvish's other CAA Theatre that is 20 minutes walk north. Glad we made it ahead of showtime in spite of this!

There was a heated tent outside the theatre where we lined up for the show. The box office was in the tent as was a bar and a park bench if you wanted to sit. We were led into the theatre by staff and then asked for our name to enter. I did not need to show the barcode on my phone as they had my name and number of seats that I had purchased. The washrooms were small, cramped and smelly. It felt like we were in a trailer? 2 stalls and 1 sink. The studio theatre was small and the seats tight but we could easily see the stage and hear/see the entire show with no problems. The staff were friendly.
