The Alexander Kasser Theatre has very unique programs. Sunday, I went to see The…read moreForgotten/L'oublie(s). This program is one of several in the Peak Performance series. The programs are $20 per ticket plus $3.00 handling fee totaling $23.00. Initially entering the theater, the greeter didn't even say, Hello or Welcome. The young girl just scanned my ticket and blurted out, "Once you leave the theater you can't reenter". Management needs to address this issue Anyway, I proceeded over to the prepaid parking. The two young girls at this desk were very friendly. The theater is immaculately clean. You are also in a gallery. A small concession stand is off to side. Entering, the actual auditorium, the ushers are friendly and escort you to your seat. On with the show, "The Forgotten/L'oublie(s).". The program's theme was nonverbal, mysterious, sad and sexually suggestive. A portion of the program was executed in a Cirque du Soleil style. The show was even more great for $20.00. The show's duration was approximately 60 minutes. Rating wise, all the positives outweigh the negatives. 4 Stars. (If I didn't have that initial cold greeting, my rating would've been higher!) The theater is located on the grounds of Montclair University. Lots of signs directing you to outside handicapped parking and garage parking. The garage parking is $6.00.

Well somehow I wound up checking into the train station instead of the theater. Anyway , they…read morecontinue to produce dynamic rather experimental theater here.

At the top of the month, I went to see Bobby Lee: The Finally Tour at the Wellmont Theater. This…read morewas the second comedy show that I've attended here. I mostly go to the Wellmont for concerts, but it's a good venue for stand-up also. My husband and I were seated in upper balcony. The audio is usually always good there, so no matter where you sit you catch everything. Photography and videotaping were prohibited for this specific show. There were signs posted on every door to the theater, so it was clear. Ban on these aren't always the case, but - if you are familiar with Bobby Lee, then you probably can imagine why. If you were at this Bobby Lee show - then you for sure know why! Haha As always and as I wrote in my past review of the Wellmont Theater: Everybody working the house - from security to ushers to concessions - are always friendly and great to people. That makes a difference for everyone. That's one aspect of Wellmont that makes seeing an act there special. It's a Live Nation venue, but it still feels like a local spot (in my opinion).

I recently purchased Jazz shoes for my six year old son for Theater Camp. The SMAPA Dance Store was…read morethe closet store next to driving to the City to purchase dance shoes on a Sunday at that. Briana was so kind and wonderful on the phone. I called on a Sunday and she pulled the potential sizes ahead of time. Originally, I was not going to bring my son. Briana encouraged me to bring him in order to have him try them on in person. I am so glad I listened! My ETA was 12:01pm and the store was due to close at noon. Briana said no worries, she would stay in order for me to try the shoes on. WOW! By the time we found parking it was 12:05pm we scored a great spot a block away) and we called Briana to advise we were walking up now. She was so sweet; so personable and assured us that she would stay open for us to arrive. Turns out my son was a larger and wider size and Briana had just the size and width that we needed! She was absolutely lovely! We plan to enroll in a class because she is amazing and the school is wonderful too! Thank you Briana for your exceptional customer service!

I can't say enough good things about BPA.  It's a very warm, welcoming, friendly studio. Elisa,…read moreMark and all the teachers are very supportive and attentive to all students, regardless of their level. My daughter took dance and acting lessons there for years. When my daughter wanted to start tap lessons, she was a little older than most kids and she didn't want to be in a beginner class with all 6 year olds.  BPA had a beginner adult/teen class that was perfect.  She learned so much with Mark in one year she skipped a level the next year. My daughter loved it here so much she would get up early on Saturdays to help out as an assistant in a dance class for the little kids before her own ballet class. Elisa and Mark are professionals from Broadway, TV and film so they are very talented and are excellent teachers but also have a warm and fun environment.   My daughter is in college now training to be an actor and I know Elisa and Mark's teaching and encouragement helped her make it to college

As a long time recreational tap dancer, I was originally drawn to BPA to experience another teacher's tap style, but soon after working with Mark, he discovered what I really needed to grow - other dance styles and full body movement. Thanks to Mark, I am learning how to work with my body, which has significantly enhanced the performance quality of my tap routines. It is my pleasure to recommend Broadway Performing Arts!

My husband and I thought the music school itself was wonderful. The trial class was engaging, and…read moremy daughter really enjoyed the lesson. Our personal concern--and this may not matter to other parents--was that my daughter spoke less about the class itself and more about why some of the male instructors were dressed in ways that confused her at her age. Explaining to her why males were dressed as women was not what I wanted to do at this age. While I respect personal lifestyle choices, I personally prefer an environment where my young child's focus is fully on the class and music rather than these kinds of distractions. Overall, the teaching quality seemed good, but this particular aspect made me realize the school may not be the right fit for our family
