Exceptional performance space in uptown Charlotte! I have enjoyed many performances in McGlohon Theater and spirit square. They have excellent artists and the ticket Prices are affordable. I love the balcony in McGlohon and the old stained glass windows, from when the building was a church in the olden days. The stage is very close to the chairs and when you sit in the balcony you have an amazing time!! I have seen several musicians while seated in the balcony and it was wonderful! Typically they serve local craft beers and some wines and some liquor drinks in the lobby. They also have had interesting art exhibits in their lobby.
