I saw Tori Amos here in May 2022. Beautiful theater and the attendents were super nice. One saw me trying to snap a picture of the piano from the doorway and took me up closer to the stage so I could get a better one. Total fanboy moment. I had balcony seats (section 5, row F) and being a smaller theater, I was close enough that I could actually see her. The picture of the piano here was taken from my seat with no zoom. As is typical for older theaters, the seating is pretty close together. My partner and I aren't small people but I was able to snag the aisle seat so that helped. Acoustics were amazing and at the perfect volume level. Bonus - there's a parking garage a block away and a beautiful park right across the street.

This is a very beautiful old vintage theater. Went to see scott Bradley's band box. The music was phenomenal.

I saw Ledisi a few years ago when she was on tour with Maxwell. Tonight she performed here at Taft Theatre. She is one of my favorite female singers. Ledisi gives a fantastic show to her fans. I laughed and cried. She broke down when singing a song for her father who's passed away. I think it really hit deep when she finished singing the song. The audience gave her so much love. It was a powerful few minutes. I would definitely pay whatever price to see her again. The male singer who opened for her was good. Beautiful building and I had a great seat in orchestra section close to stage. My only complaint is a few of the Taft workers near me continued to loudly talk during her performance. Several of the guests were looking at this folks to be quiet. I didn't pay to hear their conversations.

We ate at BiBiBop that was about 15 minutes from the venue. It is like a Chipotle or a Hot Head, but Asain style
