Reviews
"My niece's Nutcracker performance was at this location. We enjoyed a wonderful performance. The auditorium was large but not overwhelming. We had a good view, even on the lower level. The parking garage was fairly easy to access."
"The venue is definitely a little outdated and could use some freshening up. The paint is peeling pretty badly on the ceiling near the vents. And seating could be a little better in relation to view and being more comfortable. The act we saw was good. And it was easy to find nearby parking. We would be back. But hopefully, with the rising popularity of the venue, they will be able to make improvements soon."
"Overall an okay venue, I am not used to Auditorium seating at the shows I go to so it was an adjustment to be held to a seat and having patrons upset that I am standing, also the seats could use an upgrade. Reminds me of the theater seats at the budget theater from the 90s. Overall had a good time seeing little feat."
"Great seats for the Kansas concert Nov 30. Staff very quick and efficient getting us to our seats. Wonderful sound. Easy access to parking. Very easy in and out, did not have to wait in long lines for entry or exit. Side exit to outside was close to parking garage."
"I really enjoyed Moscow's Nutcracker at this arena with my girls and their friend! The seating was great from any angle but we did have center seats (the girls had me walk around the balconies as people departed at the end and all locations were good views!) the staff is great! Friendly hosts and box holder workers. Friendly food and drink service. I do wish some weren't so highly priced but I preferred the food service station at the front of the buildings prices the best! $5 large popcorn $3 box of candy and $2 maybe $3 bottled water. They wanted a soda, so got a 20oz from the back center location for $3. They do sell alcohol, I don't know how much the cost was though. The women's bathroom line was very long but you get through it quickly, a staff member directed us to the upstairs women's restroom because the line was very long at the center restroom. It was long upstairs too but there's not a whole lot you can do about that. Like I said they go quickly. They only have about 3 stalls in each restroom. I definitely think they should expand. Also the theater paint job is in desperate need of a fresh coat! There's peeling everywhere which I thought was avoidable due to their revenue! My husband is a First Class painter but that's not the only reason I noticed. It was the FIRST thing my young girls pointed out upon entering the theater, even before they commented on the stage decor! So my only suggestions to the theater is: lower food and drink costs, expand the women's restrooms and get a paint job."
