Its very easy to find the theater since it is located right inside UCI. The prices for the plays are relatively cheap so thats always good. And you can find even cheaper prices on Gold Star for most of the shows playing here. What I love the most has to be the great layout of the place. I like that you can sit all the way in the back and still see everything clearly since the theater is smaller than most. In my opinion the best seating is the front row on the balcony. Its a great theater.

A small theater good for live performances. I went to go see a viewing of the National Theater Live performance of Behind the Beautiful Forevers. The screen was nice and big to see the play. The attendants here were all very nice. Parking is a bit of pain as there is only paid parking unless you brave the plaza only parking across the street.

One of my favourite mid-sized performing arts centre. Unfortunately, 90% of the front of house staff are volunteers over the age of 70. There were plenty of late seating during the performance which causes a disruption to audience members and performers. The ushers even shined their flashlight into the audience on two occasions!

This is a first-rate venue located in the heart of the UC Irvine campus. The staff here is extremely friendly, helpful. I have traveled to many venues with various musicians and most venues dont treat you very well. The theater itself is beautiful and well kept, in fact its spotless and its the perfect place to listen to music.

Recently saw the live screening event of No Mans Land by Pinter from London, the theatre was beautiful and the screen was absolutely massive and good quality, I dont know about the quality of theatrics at UCI but my experience was great

Easy and plenty of parking. Friendly staff. The theatre is clean and chairs are comfy. However, the seats bristle like fabrique might feel itchy on exposed skin. Wear pants or long dresses and jackets.

Love the theater. Amazing experience for my daughter to perform on a real stage. My only disappointment was having to buy a ticket for my nine month old baby who was lap sitting for a dance recital.

Best shows and they offer student rates! I love the variety of shows they have! Great views from any seat really! We go here once a month almost and always have a good time.

An intimate (750ish seats) theater with a large stage, great acoustics, especially in the balcony. The restrooms and lobby are small, but usable. I love seeing shows here.

We went to see the Nutcracker and were impressed with the theater staff and the beauty of the lobby. Great atmosphere - there are no bad seats !

So... they get a 4 for the intimate experience.. BUT the service is not that great, only beer and wine and cant take your drink inside.

This is a nice sized theater but not too large that you cant get a good view.
