Took the family to see The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and had a wonderful experience. Such a great venue nestled in our little town. The seats are very comfortable and roomy, plenty of leg room and you're able to see the stage from anywhere. Entry was quick and easy. I purchased tickets online and had no issues pulling them up on my phone at the door. We'll definitely be back for more shows.
Oct 26, 2024 · Google ReviewThis is such a great place for live shows. Whether it's a play like The wizard of or an up close and personal concert from one of their many musicians. The seating capacity is only 1500 so it's not like you have to deal with big crowds. The seats were fairly comfortable pretty much your standard theater going chairs. There's also a snack stand here with popcorn and goodies along with soda pop and other delightful treats. They also have a dedicated coffee bar which is really nice 🙂. The ticket price was quite reasonable. I Saw The wizard of Oz and got orchestra third row for $18. A large popcorn and large soda set me back a measly 8 bux. And I have to throw this in the production of The wizard of Oz was done quite well. There is also plenty of parking.
Oct 24, 2024 · Google ReviewCan't say enough Good things about this place, the atmosphere, the acoustics, and the friendliness of the staff and volunteers is beyond anything I've seen in this area. Last night we saw Crystal Gayle which was an exquisite treat. I can't say enough good things about how wonderful the sound was and how exceptional the show was. This is a treat that everyone in the Atlanta and surrounding areas needs to experience.
Nov 19, 2023 · Google ReviewWent here to see the NC Symphony & the venue is awesome! Very good acoustics, easy to get to your seats no matter where you sit. Their popcorn was delicious & the price for it was not bad at all. Will definitely return!
Mar 29, 2025 · Google ReviewPerformance was good. Saw Footloose. Easy to find. Seating mostly good(Guy in front of me blocked my view. We moved after intermission.) Snacks are allowed and reasonable prices! Kind of refreshing. Wife and I enjoyed the evening.
