Stunning, elaborate, a 1920s gem. Not a bad seat in the house. I love this theater. You will too,.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Great performance great audience great ambience and a wonderful evening
Always a fun night, especially when it's theater/concert in the round!
I've been going to Westbury Music Fair and now NYCB Theater since I was a child in the 1960's with my mom. They always had great shows and big time names in an intimate setting.

We are so happy to be enlightened by Mr.Micheal Allen Harrison and family. The preformances from the
entertainment were delightful!
Loved to see Julia and How they interacted with the audience made everyone feel like they were part of the show.
Shout out to the young musicians (especially from play it forward)

Pleasant helpful staff. I sat in second row of balcony and it was an excellent view, and quite close - probably the equivalent of about 10th row if the seat had been downstairs. Sound for concert was also good. I would be quite happy to go back.
Built in 1927 with 1927 comfort levels. If you are taller than 5'10" you'd better get main floor seats. I'm 6'4" and couldn't stay for the whole show cause I was so cramped up. Now I know and you do too.
Very nice auditorium!
This is my frist visit at this theater. I loved inside the building. It feels very historic. I wishes i would of taken more pictures.
A great venue to see concerts. There is a wide variety of shows including new and vintage artists. Over the last 3 weeks we have seen Paul Anka, Kenny G, Il Divo, Frankie Valli and even Englebert Humperdinck from great seats at reasonable prices.
Pretty great venue. We saw the album release party for Searows here. Nice crowd, nice acoustics. I'd come back for sure.
This is an amazing venue. Been to two comedy shows and it's awesome. One thing I would say, aisle seats towards the back get very busy with doors opening and people coming and going. Much better off sitting more towards the middle the further back you are.
This venue is just beautiful. The acoustics are lovely. The organ is huge and gorgeous. It's pretty fun having a beer in a church too.
This is a beautiful old theater built back in the days of Vaudeville. It doesn't look like anyone ever modernized it's an amazing time capsule. Friendly staff and very helpful with their ADA guests.
After driving for 3 hours from NJ to NY, it was worth the trip. The essence of the area is filled with tiny shops and beautiful restaurants. The paramount theater was an awesome venue with many different seats, views, and levels inside. It had a very authentic feel.
My sister and her husband and I saw Patti LaBelle in concert here and had a wonderful time! The stage in the round made it a nice experience as it did move.
Concessions could have been a little better with the quality of the drinks (though you'll never see a drunk fight, I guess 🤭).
Patti had 3 outfit changes, looked wonderful, and of course sung like the songstress she is!
We had awesome seats right up front which allowed me to receive a beautiful "Lilly" from Ms. Patti Labelle herself 🤗

Wonderful performance venue at UMCP to hear the UM University Band and Mighty Sound of UM!
Excellent venue for concerts as every seat is a good seat practically. Theater is in the round and rotates slowly meaning everyone will have a great view of the artist and performances several times a show.
We saw Franki Valli and he was Excellent.
Place is clean and they offer drinks and food snacks if you so desire. Relatively small so again easy in and out and usually a more mature crowd which we like.
Wish they had more big names performing is my only thought of something that could be improved upon.
Otherwise 5 Stars highly reccomend.
Franki Valli again was AMAZING!!!

It was a nice stage setup, but needs to be updated. The seats are uncomfortable. There is no where to put your drinks.
Kenny G did an amazing Job 🥰❤️

Awesome venue to see a show..in the round and for some shows the stage rotates and some acts will only use 2/3 of venue and stage will not rotate. Furthest seat is approximately 80 feet from the stage and is pitched downwards so everyone has a great view of the stage..
Any act you enjoy that plays here you should go see them.
Getting into the parking lot can be annoying and leaving as well especially if the performance is sold out.

This is an incredible venue, holds up to 1,200 and can squeeze even more in if you use seats on the floor. Underrated!
I love this venue! Close to home and just a cool vibe. A must go if someone your into plays a gig there. Right in heart of Huntington with plenty to do before shows! Bars and restaurants galore so plan ahead. Paramount is a must go to!
Great place to see a concert! I just saw Mike Delguidice there and he was awesome! Such a showman! Kevin James showed up and it was great!
Such a great venue and restaurant. All of the food was amazing!!
We love going to shows here!
We love going to shows here!
Great venue I'd love to see more shows there ...since the stage is in the round ..not a bad seat in the house ..the stage does rotate and the sound was pretty good.. George Clinton and the P-Funk All Stars never disappoint
Very cool small venue. Saw an old favorite of mine play here (The Bogmen). It was an amazing show. We were able to get right to the stage. Would definitely recommend for live music!
Great Venue. Not too little, was impressed actually with how it opened up once you went thru the doors.
This little venue holds, I'm guessing around 250 patrons. The setting is gorgeous, and the sound quality is fabulous. There is definitely not a bad seat. Even when filled to capacity, it is intimate and feels like you're with friends. If you get a chance to hear a visiting artist play the 1883 pipe organ, like we heard Linford Detweiler do, then you'll know you've had the full experience!
What an amazing old theater. Wish we could have gotten a tour through this place as I bet you there's a lot of areas that are just amazing.
We went to see Lewis Black 'Off The Rails Tour' here, and he did not disappoint!
The theater should do some renovations / update the Womens bathrooms adding more stalls as there was a 15 minute wait, which doesn't work well with a 15 minute intermission.
We can't wait to come back to see another venue at this location.

I was in NYC for a holiday and I knew that Russell Howard was doing a gig at this venue. I paid at the box office, $40 dollars I think, very good value for money, when you consider in the UK it's £70 plus!!
Really comfortable seats. Lovely architecture. Staff were helpful, professional and friendly.
I will definitely see what is on at The Town Hall next time I am in New York City

It is one of the better performing centers I have been to. There are multiple venues and the acoustics are superb. It is a beautiful building from an architectural point of view and a really good place for students to perform. They have really good places for students to practice. My son loves the fact that they have a really nice place to practice his French horn at really any time of the day.
Great show! Crowd was decent, restrooms were clean and taken care of through the night! Of course in my opinion they don't need to charge $12 for a 24oz Bud light, but it probably keep people from having to many !
Went to see Fever's Halloween Candlelight concert and OMG, it was such a blast! From friendly staff who greet you at the entrance to a beautiful venue (The Old Church in Portland, Oregon) that has a great bar and lobby, this event was tops! The performers were AMAZING and funny with their awesome stringed instrument skills and light banter. This experience gets an A+++ all around!
Really enjoyed this intimate and historic space. Definitely want to go back for a tour. Parking deck next door and convenient to all of downtown’s fun stuff.
Beautiful, historic little venue, easily accessible from the street, website connects to Ticketmaster for purchases, bar and some snacks and refreshments available with tap and go purchasing, free masks provided for those that wish to use them, bathrooms downstairs get really crowded and the line is managed by the staff. Staff is very kind and helpful for all of your needs. The sound quality was stunning in the theatre. I enjoyed myself this past week, seeing Loreena McKennitt on one of her rare tours. I am eagerly awaiting another performance to attend at this wonderful theatre. Thank you.
Friendly staff and a decent atmosphere. The show I went to was very intense in terms of stage effects and the space and staff executed it well. I also appreciate that there is a parking structure nearby and a pizza place next door.
Great venue for an intimate concert but I noticed a few people changing their seats. At first I thought they were just late but afterwards I realized that many had been sitting in the back and decided to take advantage of the empty seats in the front. That’s unfair to those of us who paid $$$ for center front seats. Some guy sitting in front of me got up and left in the middle of the show. Very rude behavior towards the artist. Theatre management should beef up security to prevent this from
happening in the future.
happening in the future.
Intimate venue, has an in-room bar, but the folding chairs were uncomfortable. I will definitely be back, but probably will err towards standing-room concerts.
Couldn't take pictures inside during the show, but it's a great venue. Every seat is great and there are lots of bars. The staff is wonderful and makes things run smooth. Use your ticket before or after the show for a 20% discount at Ellas Tavern and Restaurant. Had a great first time and will definitely be back.
Great theater. The sound was good. But it's a little tricky to find. There are no signs in the Stony Brook college. We kept going around in a circle until we asked someone.
Great historic place to see a show. Every seat is a good seat. Well run.
This is a pretty good theatre. It's quite small, which is nice since all the seats are relatively close to the stage. My only qualm is that the acoustics aren't great. It's often difficult to hear the complexity of sounds in music, which certainly lessens the experience. However, cheap tickets and seats close to the stage make up for that.
Amazing venue. Practice rooms each have a piano and the facilities are always clean and well kept. They have a variety of performing halls and the Dekelboum Concert Hall's architecture and features are close to that of Strathmore's in North Bethesda. The staff are also world class - especially the teaching faculty.
Wonderful performance. I liked the professional stage, lighting, and sound productions. Wow, very nice/professional production. Great VALUE.
Never a bad experience here. Great sound. Great atmosphere. My son's first and won't be last concert here.
Great venue to go and watch a show! Staff was very nice and informative. It was pretty spacious as well with many options to upgrade your viewing experience. Prices at the bar were relatively reasonable as well. Stage felt a bit high so viewing angle was a little awkward but not enough to make it miserable. Would love to come here again in the near future
The ENTIRE staff, the service, the food, the music, the atmosphere!! We were treated like VIP'S. The omelet station one of the best ever, DO THE GOSPEL BRUNCH, COME HUNGRY! The menu selection was ridiculously varied and tasted great. The old school, rustic New Orleans dive decor was also incredible.
It was wonderful to watch Bishop Briggs perform. The sound was great for her but not so great for the first and okay for second. The tickets were a little misleading about being "seated" . Had to pay an extra $30 per person to sit on not the most comfy chairs
Great event space. There is almost always something going on there. The space is one large room with a beautiful ceiling, nice lighting, and easily accessible bar making it a great spot for concerts. They also have a bowling alley in the back which is a nice spot to hang out.
has an awesome open air amphitheater.. if you can call it one.. i don't know about the inside.. but its pretty spacious..
The Deck at The House of Blues is so much fun! We went to a retirement party this time but have enjoyed this fun venue a few times before. There's a Happy Hour from 6 pm to 7 pm, I believe. You can enjoy the full bar, live entertainment, and food from the Smokehouse.
Always loved this venue, and came back for the Under oath and The Ghost Inside show. The venue is still great, and all of the staff was friendly! It's apparent they are very well organized. Also had some loaded fries that were superb!
Gospel brunch buffet is a must try! So many food options and everything was seriously delicious! Seasoned to perfection. Service was friendly and fast and the place was clean and well kept. It was great to have a live band playing gospel music while you enjoyed a scrumptious meal. I’ve been to Myrtle many times and can’t believe I’ve never been before, but trust this will not be my last time!
Had an early dinner her on July 26th
I had the Jambalaya, my wife had the brisket sandwich.
Jambalaya was ok with a fairly aggressive peppery heat level.
The brisket was fatty and chewy - disappointing.
The entry of the restaurant is very reminiscent of New Orleans.
Inside is very nice.
Nice clean well decorated bathroom though my wife mentioned there is no place to hang a pocketbook while using a stall in the lady's room.
Later we met some friends on the back deck and enjoyed a drink with some music.
Deck was nice.
Overall, a nice visit with the exception of the food quality and price.
Outside deck had good music and great atmosphere. Very attentive wait staff.
Very disappointing brisket and a little expensive.

Parking: so chuffed I was able to find a spot right outside the venue. Plenty of street parking in the area, if you’re ok with a short walk.
Venue: very cool set up, you enter straight into a bar/holding area before entering the stage theatre through doors on either side. The sound was great with high production values, which can’t always be guaranteed at these smaller venues. I recommend!
Note: no food served on the premises, so eat before or prepare for a liquid dinner!

A nice experience, the music and performance was stupendous. The show was about 3 hours long non stop. There's standing room on the lower level and seats in the loge area. I was thankful that our friends got us tickets in the loge area. 3 hours standing would've been too much for me. There's about 6 bars in the venue serving alcohol. All in all great music. Extremely loud. Lots of people enjoying the music while "drinking a beer on a Friday night" which was the theme of the show.
Venue was nice. Bathrooms were nice but kind of small - however grateful they were clean. Bottle of water is $4 which isn’t terrible. Would return!
This venue is AMAZING. I have seen a lot of concerts at a lot of different places and this one blew me away. It felt magical. There's not a bad seat in the house. The stage rotates. It's like sitting inside a spaceship and having someone put on a show for you. I absolutely loved it and am already looking for reasons to come back.
What a beautiful campus! Had my son and daughter's recital here and it was wonderful! The seating is good and comfortable. The person in front of you would have to be massive for them to be in your way.
Stage door school of dance has their recitals here and I must say it's so nice inside the seats are comfy placed just right for viewing the stage. I had a great time watching the show
One of my favorite local venues to see some really upscale and extraordinary shows! And its basically in my backyard. Highly recommend!!
Great venue for fine arts performances , part of the college park campus
Studio I attend held a show here. Great venue! All went well, everyone had a fantastic time!
We attended the Bad Omens concert last night 5/21. This was our first time here & we decided to purchase a VIP table online about a week prior since the show had sold out. Let me start by saying that the staff we encountered from security to bartenders and waitress were AWESOME! Everyone took care of us and routinely checked in to make sure we were good. Unfortunately we don't remember any names but everyone made our experience great.
For a smaller concert venue, we expected the food and drink options to be just average but we were pleasantly surprised. There was a special VIP food list that we tried the loaded fries from as well as the burger and they were pretty tasty as well as decently sized so we could share. The VIP lounge had a larger selection of beer and mixed drinks.
Yes, the place gets very packed as is to be expected from a smaller venue. You have to push past people to get to the restrooms or merch line as general admission means people can stand and watch the show from mostly anywhere even the bar area.
Overall, we had a great time and would definitely come back for another show! Would highly recommend splurging for the VIP tables.

This has to be the best music venue I've ever been to. The building is gorgeous inside and out. The acoustics are heavenly. The seating is church pews. An experience I will never forget and I will be back. They also have a Spotify Playlist so you can hear upcoming artists that will be playing at the venue.
We went to a candle 🕯light concert ✨ it was very pretty, the acoustic sounded great. Polite. Clean and friendly ushers to assist you to your seat or anything you might need. There is a Ogan behind them.. I am sure they do concerts with it as well.
Great theater. Clean, intimate, not a bad seat in the house. Parking structure is the only downside. Can take 45 min to get out if you are parked on a higher level.
I have been here twice!
Once for a comedy show and the other for the Rocky Horror Picture Show.
Both times I had a good time.
Safe environment
You should be prepared to wait in a long line outside.
As you might for any concert or performance.

Great place to go to if you like theater, opera, ballet, movies and musical performers.
There is always something interesting going on, check out their website.
We were at 2022 THE NUTCRACKER - Seiskaya Ballet and it was absolutely amazing!
Parking was free.

One if my all time favorite venues! When I am at the state theater I feel like I am home.I have seen soo many shows here over the years. The security and staff are very considerate and patient. They just want everyone to have a enjoyable and safe time. I hope to see many, many more incredible shows here over the years. If you have not been you should!!! I promise you won't find a venue like this most anywhere!
Beautiful theater! Sound quality is terrific here. I don't think there is a bad seat! I'll apologize for the photo quality because Joe Satriani can really make those guitars sing!
I love coming here, they have a great variety of performances. I've enjoyed every single one I've watched here. Good sound, great views, good set design.
Saw Jordan Rudess, a classically trained piano prodigy turned progressive metal icon, perform on piano and keyboards. Incredible!
This is a very intimate venue with great acoustics, and since it was originally a church (as the name implies), it has the original pews as seating which are covered with comfortable cushions.
The building has several stained glass windows, and a beautiful working pipe organ that Mr. Rudess surprised us by playing during his performance.
The view is unobstructed from just about any seat, and the sound was amazing.

Saw King Lear by the Maryland Shakespeare Players on 5/13/2022. It runs for 2 more shows, and is a fantastic production in an intimate theater setting. Thos is a very talented cast! See it if you can!
Beautiful, simple, clean hall. The stage was built with the audience in mind. Even a big guy like myself sat comfortable and spacious. The sound was perfect as well. Smelled good, even! Highly recommend.
Ingram hall is a fantastic venue on Vanderbilt's campus. It has comfortable seating, all complete with good viewing angles of the stage. Being at the Blair School of Music the acoustics are no issue. There is good sound both from the electronic speakers and the music pit. For a fun evening I can highly recommend stopping by for a performance at Ingram hall.
What can I say...we miss it.
Im from a college over in Arkansas and all I can say is I'm jealous of this hall, I went to watch the aries trombone quartet and loved the whole thing, the only downside is that it was a little difficult to find and I was unsure whether we could park in the parking garage across the street or not. So besides the fear of getting a ticket I really enjoyed the hall!
I have attended a number of concerts here. The acoustics are excellent, the sight lines clear. Typically the cost is very reasonable. Even though the typical concert here will be delivered by students, you can expect a very high quality musical experience
One drawback is that the rows go all the way from one side to the other. Try to get seats near the center to avoid having folks step over you constantly

Nice place ... so many performances!!! Located in Vanderbilt campus!!
I’ve been to 2 plays preformed by USN. Awesome to have ample parking available. Seats are very comfortable which is important cause my husband has back issues. I appreciate the the fact that rows are raised since I’m only 5 feet tall and have issues in auditoriums with being able to see over the person in front of me.
Great performance space. Actually they have two spaces. Go online and check out their free performances or sometimes charge minimal fee. Professors and students all give tremendous concerts during the school year. This is a hidden treasure.
I loved the Bob Wootton concert!
