Full Disclosure: This review was written in exchange for $5 Starbucks gift card. Im not a reviews person but I agree its important to acknowledge good service, experiences, food, entertainment, etc. Some of us have limited disposable $$$ therefore we have to be selective where we spend our dollars. My wife and I have visited the Lehman Center for the Performing Arts for a Dru Hill Reunion concert featuring Jon B & Kenny Lattimore. Lehman Center was clean, organized and security was tight. The staff was friendly, courteous and we loved that they featured "Mom & Pop" kiosks selling everything from Fried Chicken to Empanadas. My only gripe is they stopped serving alcohol a bit early. But hey, we all gotta drive home safely, right? I recommend Lehman Center. check their schedule. They feature some very good musical acts very cheaply.

The center is ok. The way Lehman sell the tickets and confirms the tickets through LocBox sucks. When LocBox sends invitation when gifts are given, the invitation has no information about the actual event! I tried calling the Box office at Lehman and the staff was incredibly insulting. They kept saying that they did not understand what I was saying. I asked to fax the sheet that I received so that they can see what I am talking and the Box Office Manager Nereida told me that I could fax it but she was leaving? Really? The invitation was for my father for a June 4th Salsa event. The poor man did not know what the invitation was about. I detest the people at your box office. Lack of professionalism and lack of communication skills.

If you want to hear the best in Salsa this is the place. However, the place is beginning to show its age and is need of some upgrades. I was under the impression that they had received a grant to renovate the theatre, lobby and other areas, which was announced at a performance I attended, but have yet to see any work done. ????????? The lobby is a madhouse especially during intermission if you are trying to use the very limited number of bathrooms. The music is great, the location is great and parking is a piece of cake. It still gets four stars because to the music.

Me and my husband went to the lehman center for the first time to see Oscar d leon in May it was great well organized. The only thing I had a little issue with was the fans coming to the stage. I believe it is concert the the artist was trying to bring them down. That is really not good. there was officers there i saw but I think it needed to be tighter. Everything else was great. The performance was beautiful. I loved it. I hope you can bring Ismael Miranda to Lehman I love that artist. Thank You keep up the great work.

A nice venue but with a warped pricing structure, paid $65 only to end up in one of the worst seats in the venue. I think youre better of paying for cheaper tickets. The queue for the toilets is also very very long and the police presence in the actual venue is unnerving. They should remove the front two rows, they are so badly placed and yet considered the "best" seats. Even the far left hand side of the front row is the highest price tier, youll be craning your neck with a view of almost nothing if sat there.

Jesus, where do I begin? My first experienced at Lehman, fortunately, was my last. The administration is impatient, inattentive and oblivious to the needs of students. The faculty isnt much help in terms of student guidance; they dont know the left hand from the right. Lehman reminds me of business, where people are treated like clients. Oh! and dont expect anyone to answer your phone calls or emails. My very brief time at Lehman was an unpleasant one, which had me running for the nearest exit.

I have been to Lehman several times to attend concerts. I have never had issues coming in, being helped to my seat or enjoying the events. It can get crowded in the lobby while waiting to be seated but that is nothing once you sit and watch shows. The acoustics are great and the actual concert hall felt cozy and welcoming. I also love that Lehman has an amazing roster of artists and ticket prices are accessible for most people. Definitely will continue to come to Lehman!

I dont drink coffee so no full disclosure necessary. The actual theater is fabulous but what they DO there, that goes beyond fabulous. This past spring we saw two world class ballets in our own backyard. It was a family friendly program that included Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty by two different Russian troops. It was so family friendly that kids were admitted for TEN BUCKS!! We had to pay more, of course, but still it was quite a bargain for two priceless afternoons.

This is a very remarkable theater complex not only in The Bronx in particular, but also in New York at large. What I like the most about the Lehman Center for the Performing Arts is the ability of its curators to always surprise the audience with fresh, cutting edge, and classic performances covering the complex richness and multiplicity of nuances characteristic of Latin American and Caribbean cultural manifestations.

I have seen many shows at Lehman and have enjoyed them all. They offer a wide array of shows for all tastes. The venue is the right size so that wherever you sit you dont miss anything happening on stage. Prices are also reasonable for great entertainment unlike venues like Barclay Center and Madison Square Garden. The crowds are also more tolerable. I highly recommend Lehman Center.

We have seen several shows and concerts at the Leman Performing Arts Center and loved them all. Very comfortable seats and great sightlines from just bout anywhere. The shows and concerts that we saw were also top notch. The annual Rock and Roll concert was terrific with very good acoustics. We definitely recommend the Lehman Performing Arts Center for top quality shows and concerts.

My favorite experience at Lehman Center is the "Golden Oldies" concerts. I have attended several of these, and they are the best! Its great to have this experience close to where I live, and the ability to park easily. The acoustics in the theater are excellent, the staff is accommodating, and the performances are top notch. Excellent value for your entertainment dollar!

have only gone there a few times, but always have left with a good experience feeling. have seen a few concerts and also some friends who belong to a church have held music fests there also. plenty of room in the seats, properly temperatured all the time and the staff certainly makes you feel comofrtable. so all around a 5 star rating !!!!!!

Took my wife who lived out the Salsa hey-days, herself, to see Willie Colon and his band a while back. We liked everything about the Lehman Center and applaud the effort to bring quality entertainment to the borough. That said, we both agreed that the acoustics of the auditorium left a lot to be desired, unfortunately.
