"Beautiful place for live local theater that is largely volunteer-driven!"
"My family and I love Live Arts. Incredible staff, great venue and I’m always impressed by the quality of the performances. This is not your average community theatre, it’s so much more. Go! You will love it!"
"Just participated in (as a parent) and watched (also ushered - free shows if you can help!) 25 amazing young writers and actors and actresses putting forth their creativity, insight and courage into two equally brilliant and intriguing shows of the Teenish Workshop 2018. Pretty amazing and eye opening what the kids came up with on their own and along with the help of Miller and Claire (and many others) turned their ideas into something professional and entertaining. Definitely will participate again! And as season ticket holders (I ask for them for my birthday every year), in the last three years we have not be disappointed once by any Live Arts show. They run a highly professional theater program, all on a volunteer basis. I would easily compare some of the shows to those I have seen on Broadway. Really, we are fortunate to have this arts group here. And the range of how you can participate is amazing as well, with classes and volunteering to assist or even be in a show. Support local arts and freedom of expression in the arts!"
"Just saw a preview night of Cry Baby. Show was excellent! Service at front desk and concessions was good. The cast was really great. Mom lives near Cville, so I hope to make Live Arts a habit:)"
"Live arts is an amazing theater! We are so lucky in Charlottesville to have such a wonderful community theater and educational space. If you haven't gotten involved with a production, you should! They welcome people with experience, and newbies. Or simply come and see some really good community theater!"
