Good place to catch a show... To bad that the people in front of us had to stand up halfway throughout the show ..that pretty much ruined it for me .I went to see a show not look at someone backside ..wish I could get my money back ...

It is an excellent venue I don't think there is a bad seat in the house. The entertainment is rarely to our liking which is where the 4 stars comes from
