We saw She Loves Me performed here and it was fantastic! Great singing, great live music, great performances. There is free parking, which is a plus. The only negative is that the theatre got pretty warm with all those bodies in there. It made my guest and I feel kind of sleepy despite the absolutely fanstastic performance. Oh, also the seats are wider than other places, which was great. I definitely recommend this theater and will be returning!
