I just returned home after being fortunate enough to take 7 of my students to see Beauty and the Beast! The show was AMAZING and has a fun filled cast. My students were very excited to take a picture with The Beast and Mrs. Potts and I really appreciate that they both took the time to speak with them. I, also, want to express my gratitude to a woman who helped my student and I. My student, during the show, got a bloody nose and we had to sneak out. Tracy came to help us and she offered not only suggestions, tissues, water and support but she also cleaned my student's shirt!

The Second City comedy group presented a very funny show. I can see why SNL recruits so many members of their cast from this group. The experience made me think that Syracuse needs more comedy performances, either famous stand-up comedians, or...
Read moreSyracuse Stage is probably is the best kept secret of Central NY. The theater is intimate. There isn't a bad seat in the house. The staff is wonderful. They are helpful, respectful, and very enthusiastic about the shows AND THEIR JOBS. I have been attending the Stage since 1990, most seasons buying season tickets. I don't think there has been one show that I can say something bad about. I can name some that were outstanding!! But that would take up too much time and space.
If you have not taken advantage of this first class professional theater, you are being foolish. Take advantage of what is enlightening, entertaining, and...
