Wanted to surprise my wife with a great haunted house and it was anything but. It was Nov 1. Maybe half the staff didn't come to work that day? There were extremely long segments where it would have made sense to have additional characters. If it was free or even a local fundraiser with volunteers it would be an ok house. Don't waste your money on this one.

When we walked in the first thing I noticed was the smell...now they have said they need to repair the roof and have, or near enough funds, but...should put dehumidifiers/mildew-rid bags, etc all over before shows (my opinion). Next I noticed what a greatly designed stage-really nice and professional! The 5 actors were great...I'd say perfect in their parts, they gave their hearts into the play-Barefoot in the Park. If you need reminded what it was about- young couple facing the challenges of living together with two different types personalities (which is probably is what attracted them to each other) then add in a nosey neighbor, interfering mother and 5/6 flights of stairs and you have humor!

Since school is out for the winter break, you can find garage covered parking or outside parking. Both parking options require a short walk to the performing arts center. When we arrived we were able to take our annual picture inside with the six foot tall nutcrackers, then headed to our seats. I'm pretty sure every seat here offers you a decent view of the stage. This year we sat one row away from the stage. I will say for me and this was our own doing, that was a bit too close and my neck was starting to bother me. The location is beautiful, the seats are comfortable, and the acoustics are great.

It was for Filipino Heritage Night and I loved how they represented the Filipino culture with the Filipino honorary consult getting to throw the first pitch and then having the Filipino national anthem song as well. They also had a Filipino food truck there called Sa Mesa, which is always so delicious so we got that for dinner and watched the game. The seats were nice and shaded, which I appreciated and the stadium is clean and nice. I ended up catching a ball, which was so exciting and very memorable! We ended up winning and it was so much fun and I will definitely be back for another fun night here!

The people who work there are very kind and the people who go there have always been kind and helpful. They offer a variety of dance styles (tap, jazz, ballet etc.) for a variety of ages. If you are in their Company they have competitions a few times a year, as well as some local events. This is optional. Parents that just want to have their children enjoy the experience can sign up for whichever class their child wants to try. I will say when I pick my girls up and see the little tots in their ballet outfits it's adorable and very reminiscent. They do offer a discount if you take multiple classes. We are there 5 days a week so I take full advantage of this, lol. They also offer adult classes. I believe it changes at times. I know they have done line dancing and are currently doing adult ballet. (I will get in there one day!) So whatever the age is you should come and check it out if you want to try a non-judgmental place that truly sometimes feels like a second home! Hope to see you there soon!!!

My biggest negative of this studio is their EXTREME LACK OF CONTROL OVER THEIR STUDENTS AND DISCIPLINE. My child was in a after school program before that was very structured and they thrived in that environment. Whenever I pick up my child from Dance Mania, the kids are running wild, yelling, touching each other, fighting over toys/tablet; the owner is always at the front desk not doing anything except glaring at however walks in the door to pick up those kids. IT IS TOTAL CHAOS. They need to get their act together if they want to expand their client base.

Yelp challenge 2015 44/365…read more I am beyond grateful for the opportunity to see this Marvel Universe live action show at the Honda Center with my personal superhereo of my own with 2nd row seats. We love superheroes and we used to dress up at movie premieres years ago. So, this was a dream come true. Its been a rough few weeks and tonight we were able to be in the moment and enjoy ourselves. We paid $16.00 to park, picked up our willcall tickets, grabbed a few snacks, a hot dog, chivken tenders w/ fries and a water about $23 and found our ground level seats with a VIP view. The house was definitely full of kids. Which doesn't bother me since Im around kids all day. The show had 20 plus Marvel characters in a battlefield against each other. Those actors were bad to tha bone and definitely in shape to do all the tumbling, riding, flying, fighting that they were doing. One guy was even lit on fire. It was amazing. Although this wasn't really a Yelp event itself, its still my all time favorite Yelp sponsered night!!! Thanks Ryan and Thanks to the big daddy Jeremy!!! Your generosity is much appreciated!!!!

2nd row seats?! Sweet! Yelp sure knows how to make us feel like VIPs and I can't be more grateful…read more Parking was a breeze priced at $16 and our tickets were waiting for us at the Will Call window with a very quick line. With ushers escorting us to our seats, it was smooth sailing for us from beginning to end of the 2-hour show. A 30-minute intermission was a good break. Lots of vendors selling Marvel products are to be expected and overpriced, at that. So just be wary. It was a joy watching all the kids dressed up as their favorite Super Hero. This would be the best time to bust out those costumes, parents! I had teens in tow as they are more into these things than I am. Can't be happier to have seen them enjoy all the effects and stunts featured all throughout the evening. Spidey and Thor were my two favorite characters that night as those two had a cute humor going and were closest to the actual super heroes in terms of how they look, the acting, and their voices. The bike stunts were sometimes repetitive but it was a nice addition to the show, nonetheless. The Hulk had quite an entrance and you can tell the audience loved it. All the Marvel super heroes united last night to fight Loki and the villains to get back the pieces of the cosmic cube as this can be very dangerous in the wrong hands. Taken as captives were Storm and Cyclops, but they were saved in the end, of course. Yay to mission accomplished! I can't say it enough, thank you, Yelp and a loud shout out to Ryan for being the best CM out there! It was great seeing you last night, Jennifer. Catch you next time, Vince!
