"My wife and I attended last nights Sheena Easton / Taylor Dayne show. The show was very good . The seats in the center are the worst issue . They are extremely tight and very uncomfortable. I felt like I was sitting in a seat on a Southwest Airlines Jet. The seats are so small & tight I was stuck trying to get out of my seat. So tight you can’t even move. It was killing my back and hips. People are sitting shoulder to shoulder next to each other. You are squashed in the small seats. When we went inside the auditorium to our seat about 7:35 pm . The AC was turned on inside and it was freezing! Then after awhile they turned on the heat up to I swear 90-95 degrees inside the center . Right at the beginning of the show. It was so ungodly hot and I was dripping sweat during the show. I wanted to go address this. It was miserable!! I will not be attending any more shows at the Dougherty Center. These seats are not made for adult seating. It is made for petite people or high school kids. Definitely not for adults. Why would someone want to sit and be crammed in seats for a show?"

"Stunning theater! Its layout is very simple yet effective, and the inside of the theater is well-lit and has an enjoyable atmosphere."

"Love seeing a music band here, for a small venue. Very nice set up and easy to get to, wish they had more music bands playing there."

"Awesome little venue tucked away here in San Ramon. My kids are involved in a lot of the drama programs in the area and have often performed here at Dougherty Valley Performing Arts Center. Ample amount of seating. Location is always clean and the staff is pretty friendly. Keep up the great work y’all!!!"
