Came here for Father's Day…read more It was a good time. The show is a bit cheesy, but you get entertainment and dinner at the same time. Things could have been better in regards to the service. They really never checked on us and took what seemed like really long time to get anything to us. It's probably not easy to serve that many people in such a short amount of time. The show itself has a plot which was kinda meh, but the acrobatics and aerial silk performance was pretty impressive. The show kept my 2 yr old toddler entertained and she was on the edge of my lap watching the whole show. Food was okay, but you come here for the show. It was just a chicken leg quarters with some veggies. It's pirate themed throughout the venue and you have a lot of time before the show to browse the gift shop.

Advisory for parents with young children-…read more This pirate show has extremely loud audio, flashing lights, and occasional sudden fake gun shots. My ears were hurting the whole time! Not appropriate for adults and children with sensory sensitivity, adhd, and those who are neurodivergent. My 7 yo son got so scared and overwhelmed by the unnecessary loud bangs and audio. The show would otherwise have been enjoyable because the actors and performers were very skilled. Ownership- please lower the audio!!

I totally didn't realize this was something that wasn't for kids when I heard about it, but it was actually very entertaining and I did not regret the experience!! The plot was cheesy but well executed, and the horses were so cool?? I've never really seen live dressage before and I think this is one of the only places that you can regularly watch it. Pros: - Very easy to get to, especially if you do an uber drop-off to avoid the parking drama - HUGE portions of food- we were served garlic bed, tomato soup, half a chicken, and a pastry for dessert. It's "full-on medieval experience" so you eat with your hands, no utensils. The tomato soup and garlic bread were actually so delicious. Meal also comes with your own choice of soft drink (think lemonade, etc). - There are drinks to purchase, menu is on the QR code at your seat. It was pretty tasty - you get to scream A TON - and it's actually encouraged!! I like spaces like these where you're allowed to be as obnoxious, talk as much trash as loud as you want, against knights that are not the one your section is rooting for. The red knight - staff were welcoming and professional and super helpful - the knights and performers are all super talented! Even though you know the fight scenes are staged, the competition is real and the knights are actually trying to win for real (per our friend who is a knight there lol - it's a real job and they have real martial arts training) - People get super into it, and dress up and groups have so much fun! - They do give you hand wipes, but sometimes it is helpful to bring your own extra Cons: - the drinks are super overpriced because they come with a souvenir cup (which I didn't see explicitly written anywhere when we bought them) that looks kinda tacky lol - the chicken breast and potato was pretty dry, so I would say the food here is very mid and that's not what you should come for - I would wear clothes you're okay getting a little dirty, since it's pretty dark, you can't really see when food splashes onto you - The dessert pastry was also very dry Overall, a super immersive and engaging show with great performers. I felt like the $70 without the extra cake was worth the money.

LA is too expensive to rent space for this wonderful and fairly priced circus so they go a bit out side of LA, to Lakewood, Downey or Buena Park. It is such great fun and you have to go and take a kid or ten with you. These circuses are struggling so support them. They have performers from all over the world. All of the acts are great and the clowns are funny and they go into the audience. They don't have a bad seat in the house. And again, the prices are so far and they always have specials. Just go to their website and sign up for emails when they are in your area, which could be anywhere. The place is so cute with great popcorn, face painting and toys. It is everything a kid could want.

My husband and I came to her just one month before our wedding with no dance experience at all, asking for a choreographed dance. She listened carefully to our song choice and created a beautiful, fun routine that made us feel confident and comfortable. Coach Anna was flexible with our schedule, always punctual, and her rates were very reasonable -- especially compared to other studios we had contacted. She was truly the only one who offered exactly what we needed. Thanks to her, our first dance was a huge hit at our wedding! We couldn't be happier and highly recommend RICA Dance Studio and Coach Anna for any of your dance needs.

I want to say that the theater holds maybe 75-100 people...? Comfy seats and every seat is a great view. Prices are great, our last show was $39 each. The actors are fun and you can tell they absolutely love doing what they do. They are there to make everyone happy including themselves and their fellow castmates. There is a bar with drinks and snacks, we've even seen shirts for sale! We are considering purchasing a "B Season Pass" so we don't miss out on the shows this coming year, some sell out fast! I hate to even give a great review because I don't want people to buy up all the seats from under us, but yet I want to also give this theater a huge and happy round of applause for being FANTASTIC!! We will see you again soon! Cheers!

The staff and actors are wonderful as well. Probably our favorite local theater.

More recently, we enjoyed "Frozen" and "Come From Away" and are excited for many of the upcoming shows for the season! The production quality for this mid-size theatre is excellent! The theatre is not huge, but there are many seats to fill. We have sat in rows Q, R, and S, and the views are still great! Seats are relatively comfortable and easy to find as well. Show prices will vary on where you sit, but it does feel intimate enough to connect with the actors wherever you sit. Even though we live nowhere near the area, La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts has become one of our favourites. Additionally , the parking lot is huge due to the many businesses in this plaza, and we've always been able to park relatively near the theater. Plenty of food options here, too! We will gladly drive the extra miles to support the arts and enjoy musical theatre in La Mirada!
