Capitol Theatre

"This is a nicely restored theater. Sat in the upper balcony which had no knee space. I'm only 5'5" and I was very uncomfortable. All in all it is worth the show. The WSO is a very great orchestra for their size."

"The best, definitely my favorite theatre and will be back!! I came here instead of locally (Pittsburgh) due to the seats looking more comfortable AND being able to get box seating. This review is specifically for Box seats since there arent any reviews on them. The speakers are close but it was never too loud, sound was perfect the entire time. As you can see from the photos the seats are movable stand alone chairs that provide an incredible eye level view since the box sits high as the stage basically. I sat in Box B (seats 1&2) and yes some of the stage/performance was not viewable to the back right but that did not matter to me. It is so nice being able to move your chair to angle it to see the stage without having to keep your head turned completely and to be able to move the chair to have more elbow / leg room. The only downside for some people could be that these chairs do have armrests BUT you can ask for an armless chair (padded) when you get there. I am all about comfort and these seats are well worth the price, it was the first time I thoroughly got to enjoy a show without feeling uncomfortable, thanks Capitol Theatre!!! (Review from Dec 9 2023) Yes there are concessions and they take cards as well. PS bring cash in case they have raffles or after-event artist interactions/photos. I parked at 10th street parking garage for $5, cash only. Entrance to garage is on "Lane 38" (turn left at light on 10th St./Market St. & stay left for Lane 38). The garage exit is on 10th street though, which after an event takes some time to exit."

"Had a great evening. It is absolutely beautiful inside the Capitol. Best part was meeting Erik Estrada!!"

"I love that the Capitol is starting to get a bunch of shows again. It's such a beautiful theater with a lot of history. I was really surprised at last weeks production of The Rocky Horror Picture Show that they allowed for audience participation, but I'm so glad they did. That's such a big part of the experience for thar fan base and definitely allowed for an experience to remember and bring patrons back. I hope things continue to go upward for the theater and our community."

"Capitol Theater is a wonderful experience! This is a must place to go for a great show. I recently saw Larry The Cable Guy here and loved it. Every seat in the theater has a great view. Nice comfortable seats, concession stands, and bathrooms. The architectural design of the building itself is exquisite and beautiful. It's definitely a big part of downtown wheeling and has been for a very long time."
