This is a nice little theater, on the small side of venues. There isnt really a bad seat, unless its in the balcony (we havent been seated there). We won tickets from KPRI for Colin Hay, and had a good time. Know that it will take you a little while to get there, because it is way out on the outskirts of Poway. It also is connected to a High School, so parking for a Friday night performance can be hairy if theres a game that night. Be prepared for a little bit of a hike. The theater offers a pre-performance buffet package for the weekend shows. We havent experienced that, we usually eat at Santorini which is about a mile away and very good.

This is one of the best-kept secrets in San Diego County. Gorgeous, intimate theater where no seat is more than 70 feet from the stage. Its sort of a cross between a performing arts center and an acoustic listening room: warm and intimate yet with state of the art sound and excellent sight lines. Rock, country, folk and classical musical acts make up the bulk of the schedule with the odd theatrical production, dance company or family show in the mix. Also deceptively close to the highway -- maybe 7 minutes off I-15 in Poway. Well worth the drive!

It was a school play of The Wizard of Oz. Play was really. The snack bar only used cash and didnt mention that at all. The shows is absolutely no video or photography or audio recording of any kind! Supposedly theres no food or drink allowed in the seats, I thought I saw some. Parking is ample and theres a good drop off area for 4+ cars right in front.

First time here I guess its been around for 25 years its kind of in the middle of nowhere but its a pretty nice place one thing I would suggest is that they need to find a way to take credit cards so if you go and you want snacks or a drink remember to bring some cash

We were at the center to night. Everything was perfect and enjoyable. The performers, all volunteers, were as polished in their performances as professionals. Overall, a great experience for all.

T The show was just breathtaking and the color guard just added more to it very heartwarming the singers were great a whole program I would recommend to anybody and I did give it a five star

The RB Chorale group performed last evening. Was fantastic. Director was kind, and genuine. Loved the music choices. Will definitely return for Dec. show.

A great venue for a concert or lecture. It is on the small side compared to other Performing Arts theaters in the area but it is a beautiful place.

Gorgeous modern theater, great acoustics for music events. Keep an eye out for the shows, theyre not all that well publicized.

I have only attended my sons high school events, but facility is nice. I would have no problem attending public events here.

It was so wonderful to see the talent in all these kids. Of course my 2 grandchildren were crazy great!
