I bought a ticket to see a show, but instead of having it in the auditorium, they set up crappy plastic chairs in the lobby and pawned it off as "more intimate." It sucked and I wish I'd stayed home.Full review by Kevin M

I remember that you can buy beverages. I don't really recall food. We ate at Rodano's prior to our show. My suggestion if you want dinner prior to the show, go early!!
