I got the lowest tier seats in the balcony and felt like my seat was still great! Highly recommend seeing at least one production here if you come to OSF to experience the ambience of this historic theater.

    What an amazing experience! I have always wanted to see a play at the Allen Elizabethan Theatre in…read moreAshland for the Oregon Shakespeare Festival and I'm so glad to have finally have done so. It was better than I could've imagined. I've always been a fan of Shakespeare, so made a mental note to check this place out someday. Like the famous Globe Theatre in England, the Allen Elizabethan Theatre is inspired and designed by such. It's Ashland's most prized setting and primarily what brings tourists to the area. My partner's grandma got us tickets to see The Twelfth Night, which was showing the one night we spent in southern Oregon. Since she is a local, she was able to get discounted tickets, which was nice. We were seated on the bottom level, close to the stage near the center. They were fantastic seats! However, just like the Globe Theatre, this theatre is outdoors, so rain or shine, the show must go on. Being from the Pacific Northwest, that bothered no one here. Everyone came prepared with rain jackets and parkas. Acoustics, lighting and design were all on point. We loved the performance, especially when the actors interacted with the crowd! There's a parking garage nearby, and is close to the main street where many of the restaurants are located. Bathrooms are right outside the theatre, as well as a concession stand that serves wine, beer and more. If you're in the area, you must absolutely see a Shakespeare play at the Allen Elizabethan Theatre! Truly a treasure!

    Ok, this review is on the popcorn, which is really the only reason I go to movies. This theater…read moreused to have the BEST popcorn, perfect texture, delicious in every way. They have yeast to put on top, add extra butter if you want....it was AMAZING!!! Was amazing, the last two times I've been to this theater the popcorn is just plain bad. Hard kernels with no real flavor. It's such a bummer, something has changed and I don't like it. Can someone please switch back to the other popcorn brand, or flavoring? It's just not fun to go to the movies when the popcorn tastes day old. Help, bring back the OG popcorn.

    I simply could not recommend this festival experience enough…read more I used to live in Ashland and this event is the thing still that prompts me to go back and visit every year. It's such a unique film festival experience and its such a great town. The films are incredibly well curated, the people involved are uncommonly kind and fun, the town is adorable, supportive and WALKABLE, and the festival is the perfect size to make it feel like you've all gone to film camp for 5 days. And you don't have to be a film geek to have a ball! My 28 year old sister and my 55 year old mother both had a great time and neither are students of film, but both enjoyed the temporary 5-day community that they got to feel a part of. Did I mention WALKABLE? No shuttles or buses to catch. Kinda unheard of when it comes to most festivals. For the full experience, I would recommend: 1) Go see some shorts! Its so rare you get to see shorts in a theater, I highly recommend taking advantage the opportunity. And there are some incredible story tellers that show their work there. 2) Go out to the designated after hours spot at least one of the nights. Tons of folks gather there, including filmmakers, volunteers, staff and film-goers. The conversations there are rich, passionate, inspiring and authentic. 3) Take advantage of the "Talks". There are some great panels that are fantastic opportunities to learn and hear about independent filmmaking. Always a highlight of the festival. 4) See a film at the Armory. There's great food there and it's actually kind of a cool place to see a film. 5) See a film in one of the really small theaters~ there aren't many places you can go to a theater that is that small.
