    This place is not only hilarious but very welcoming. Not only can you catch very funny shows at only $5 a pop but you can also take classes! It's been a wonderful experience letting the PIG into my life!

    I love it here! It's so much fun to come to their $5 shows every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday! It's a great community and I started taking classes. I highly suggest this as a fun date night and way to explore Providence's arts. Who doesn't love to laugh?

    Fun times at the Firehouse this past Friday evening taking in a Bit Players Improv show! The Bit…read morePlayers is a great evening activity, reasonably priced at $18 per ticket, BYOB and bring your own food, too. We got a box of Crab Rangoons from Ching Tao down the street, and sat in the first row nibbling away. The show is a fast paced 80 minute romp with no intermission. The troupe takes suggestions from the audience for the skits, and hilarity ensues. If you are celebrating a special occasion, they may even call you up from the audience for a personalized skit of your own! The Bit Players excel particularly in their song-prov sketches, I have been coming to these shows for years and the ability to make up verses on the fly never fails to impress. JT and Danny stole the show the night we went with their Shakespearean sketch about Chuck E Cheese.. still laughing over some of the great lines! I would recommend this night out to folks ages 14+, as the humor skews to a PG-13-ish range. That being said, if you're looking for a fun and different activity, the Bit Players is worth a visit!

    Highly recommend this affordable and enjoyable hour+ of entertainment. Contrary to previously held…read morebelief that Improv would heighten my anxiety, I thoroughly enjoyed every second. I was literally on the edge of my seat. No two shows are alike. The building is incredible and needs to be seen. I can't wait to go back and bring friends.

    We were a party of ten and went to the Dinner Detective show for our first time to celebrate the…read more60th birthday of one of our family members. It was an absolute BLAST!! Our party ranged in age from 16 to 83, and every single one of us had an unbelievably fun time! There were 7 actors involved in the murder show, but a few of them were scattered here and there as "plants" at various tables. They all did an amazing job of acting, even the plants who only had a few minutes of action. The two main detectives were fantastic! There was a lot of interaction throughout the show with each of the ten or so dinner tables. In fact, I was selected to assist the two main detectives as a "Rookie" detective. I leaned into the role and really really enjoyed myself! It helps if you're a "yes, and" kind of person rather than a "no, because" type. And I'd say that's true of the show overall because they frequently singled out people by asking them to stand up and answer some questions or even come up to the front of the room and act something out. The food was acceptable, and the bartended cash bar drinks were fine. The quality of the food and drinks is probably going to vary by venue. We went to the show in the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Warwick, RI. The plot of the murder story was actually just difficult enough that you had to do some thinking to solve it. And they gave you enough clues that it was definitely solvable for a few people, including one at our table who solved the mystery of "who done it" and won their award for the best explanation! All of us in our group absolutely want to do another Dinner Detective Murder Mystery Dinner Show! It's incredibly fun if you go with the right attitude!!

    Fantastic fun and laughs. Very entertaining and funny. Perfect addition to your partyread more

I went to see The Lion King and it was fabulous! The theater is small enough to capture the details without binoculars or an additional screen. The music was captivating. The colors were vivid.

I would absolutely go back to PPAC to watch this play, and looking forward to other places that are coming up later this year and next year.

The theatre is always beautiful, comfortable and clean which makes every visit feel special. We have been season ticket holders for years now and it has been fun starting to recognize our fellow subscribers and neighbors around us. Everyone from the ushers to the concession staff is always friendly and helpful. From the fun show themed drinks to the must-have cookies and impressively efficient intermission lines, PPAC continues to be one of my favorite places for a night out in Providence. Thank you for another great season and many memorable nights.
