Not impressed. We went for the first time last night to see a choir of men. The performance was great, so nothing against them, but we were annoyed by the fact that we had purchased balcony tickets in the center front well in advance for the acoustics and the view. But were notified on the day before the show that we were being moved from the balcony to the main floor. We were told we would be given new tickets. Then when we arrived they put us in the way back of the main floor, only to find out by someone else in attendance that the same day we were notified of the move, that the theatre had done a fire sale on tickets reducing them to $25.00 each.

You would be amazed by some of the shows that have visited the Lutcher. From Cats to Liberace, some of the most popular performers and productions in the world have performed at this venue. I highly recommend visiting this wonderful spot just a short drive away from Houston, Lake Charles, LA,...
Read moreHighly recommended; professionally run, well managed theatre for a small city. They regularly acquire top knotch professional travelling shows and performers and tickets are fairly priced compared to larger cities. An exceptional value.
They are getting back up to full steam and have a wonderful lineup this season (2022.) Went to see Fiddler on the Roof (2022/03/06), quite a poignant show in light of what's happening in Ukraine right now. The cast paid a tribute and both the audience and cast shared a resounding show of support for the Ukrainian's plight and hope for a quick and...
