EVERY staff member we encountered here was nice and helpful! From the lady at the door that checked our bags to the ones that pointed us towards the show and the ones helping people find their seats. It just felt so welcoming. The theater is beautifully charming. They have 2 women’s restrooms which is great so although there were a lot of people there was no wait. It was immaculately clean, including the restrooms and I love their practical hooks on the bathroom doors. Their pretzels were warm and just the right balance between crispy and soft inside. Would definitely visit again!

Perfect setting to see Broadway shows, ballet or classic movies. Proscenium stage framed by golden curtains, classic post Victorian architectures that make you feel as if are in Russia. I am truly in love with this place.

Beautiful theater with a great lineup of shows. Friendly staff, good seats & sightlines. Excellent place to see a show or concert.

Marc Martel - The Ultimate Queen Celebration 🀩 Was amazing. The sound, environment, everything was on point. The only thing that I can complain is about the seats, narrow and small for people from 6'0 and above. Other than that, the theater is beautiful.

Why there's not any black plays or many starring people of color, at ppac?

Deborah Prince | Sep 3, 2018
Kimberly Cote | Sep 3, 2018

Most everything at PPAC starts in NYC. All the casting is done there and then they go to Providence as the first leg of the tour. It is a reflection of what is going on in NYC. Hamilton is coming to PPAC. The plays are constantly changing. If you ever tour the back stage of PPAC you will see the walls signed with the stars who have performed there...many famous black people.
