The Goodspeed Opera House is a treasure. The shows are fantastic. I most recently saw 42nd Street. The dancing, singing, and sets were top-notch. The cast was terrific. The ushers, bartenders, and greeters are all courteous and helpful. The theater is located on the Connecticut River in East Haddam, CT. The location is picturesque, and there are tables with chairs as well as benches near the entrance as well as just off the bar area. There are at least three restaurants near the theater, making it easy to dine just before or just after the show. Christmas in Connecticut is the next scheduled show. I look forward to attending it and know the performers and everyone at the opera house will deliver another magical performance.

My wife and I love the Goodspead. Our recent experience taking our 10 year old granddaughter to see 42nd Street was great! I love the charm of the old theater on the CT River, the parking is easy and the staff is extremely friendly and accommodating.

This venue is currently offering it’s musicians 0% raises after being shut down for nearly two years. They took significant government money and are not sharing it with musicians to keep up with inflation. Do not patronise them until they bargain a fair contract with the musicians. They bring the musical scores to life for you to enjoy.
