We love having this off-Broadway option in our city! Been able to see a lot of fantastic performances, like Hamilton. Next year, Dear Evan Hansen! My only gripes are that the seats can be a little uncomfortable after two hours or so, and the sound sometimes leaves a little to be desired up in the balcony, but I am unsure if that is the fault of the auditorium, or of the performing company's sound system. Not sure who really takes the blame for that. Hamilton's sound was perfect but during School of Rock we couldn't make out any dialogue for the first half at all. General notes: The bathrooms can get miiiighty backed up at intermission, but the ushers in there are great at hustling folks into empty stalls. The stage and lights are always perfect, and honestly, the sign language interpreters are fun as hell to watch! Food and drink are fairly reasonably priced, and they take cards. Parking is decent, we usually use one of the surrounding lots and never have to be there more than a half hour ahead of time, even for Hamilton. They do offer prepaid parking in their lot to subscribers at $10/show. It would be nice if some tickets could be more affordable for lower income families to be able to expose their kids to these shows. Theater is for everyone! All in all, I love the Aud and the staff is always great. It's a treasure right here in our city that I'm happy to see so many taking advantage of.

3 stars for the show itself. Hamilton was amazing. Would give 5 stars if it was solely based on the show. My husband and I had tickets for a Thursday night show that appeared sold out. Yay! Great for the organization. We were seated in Balcony J101 & J102. These tickets were expensive. The view from the seats were fine. My complaint is that the seats are so small and uncomfortable. It's worse than plane seating. I was seated in J102 and next to a larger man. He was constantly hitting my shoulders and legs. I kept scooting toward my husband and didn't have use of any arm rest. This gentleman should have purchased 2 seats. On top of that discomfort, the building is old and the seats are super uncomfortable. The reception area is well run and has lots of space. The beverage area is well run and efficient. Plenty of options.
