Great venue! Music is so distorted it was terrible. Think again if coming for a concert. A completely waste of time. Who knows if the folks could sing?

I went to a nice magic show. Very good sound. My only issue was I couldn't see the show well with the lady sitting in front of me had big hair and she was holding a child. Oh well, it wasn't the theater's fault.
