My daughter and I came for the Harry Potter Goblet of Fire concert, and the theater was not what I was expecting. When I first walked in, I was wondering where I was, Civic Center, or Principal Park, as this is stadium seating, not even movie theater seating. These seats are extremely uncomfortable, body on top of body, not acceptable, and totally not enjoyable. I love going to see and experience a live orchestra, but not like this. The seats we had, paid $35.00 to sit in a hard plastic seat on top of concrete. Most tickets were way overpriced at $100.00 or more????? This is an insane amount of money to pay to sit in an theater with stadium seats. Clearly had signs stating that no one will be able to enter while performance in progress, we had at least 2 that came over .45 minutes late, totally unacceptable and disrupted the entire row of seats. I wish I had looked inside the theater, as I would not have paid $35.00/ $70.00 for 2 tickets in an extremely 1970's style theater. Des Moines, you need to spend some of these $$$$ and upgrade and totally Remodel your theater. This is an embarrassment to your Symphony Orchestra who performs here. I will not return, and will not recommend. Bathrooms, not enough and no vending machines, concessions only drinks and alcohol. This event could have been so much more, and it just came up short, orchestra, A+, the experience, D-.
