"Saw Green Day's American Idiot musical there. The cast was energetic and pretty good singers as well."
"We saw American Idiot and it was excellent! Will definitely visit this theater again."
"Really beautiful theater space. Lots of meeting rooms if needed. Also is home to the McLean Community Players."
"Not good. I had 6 tickets to the snow queen from Vettix. Lady at the venue denied myself (disabled vet) and kids access to the event since I didn't have 6 dollars to buy my family masks for the event. Never been treated so rude in my life. P.s....she said the masks were a donation but for me and my family, it was 6 dollars mandatory."
"Staff was very rude to us and other members of the audience throughout. Felt like I was on a kindergarten field trip! Elderly people were being harassed for not understanding things and moving out of their rows fast enough. They all but confiscated everyone’s phones. Both Sarah and Mr. Singh, the Executive Director, were main players in this. I will not be returning."
