We seen the play Beetlejuice and it was awesome!! The theater is so beautiful. The whole experience was something I will always remember and reminisce about. Definitely want to go to this theater again.
We came a few minutes late for the nutcracker and we were told there was a "hold". They refused to let us go to our seats for 5 minutes for a reason they couldn't explain. The best part is our seats were in the absolute last row of our section and aisle seats! We wouldn't have disrupted anyone! Our seats were literally right next to the door! That put me in a bad mood for the majority of the show and I wanted to leave . It's a shame too because the theatre itself is beautiful and our seats were great.
Another fantastic (free!) community singalong with Greg, the resident organist and sometime comedian. Then a fabulous Madison Symphony Holiday Concert that evening!! An incredible place in Madison.
Went for ballet with kids, saw the exhibit upstairs during intermission and danced off downstairs at the Children's stage after the performance. A beautiful facility.
We love seeing Broadway & other shows at the Overture. The staff is always excellent. Volunteers are helpful, prices are reasonable and the shows are always great!
I went to the Jerry Awards (2022/2023 season) and oh my god I love this building. It's clean and modern and sleek and absolutely stunning inside and out. It is absolutely huge inside with 4(I believe) different seating levels. The sound quality throughout the large theater is crazy impressive. The entire theater is gorgeous and well-done and I have literally nothing negative to say about it.
My first visit to the Overture Center did NOT disappoint! The venue is gorgeous, and there isn't a bad seat in the house. Had a great time!!
We saw The Lion King here. It was awesome. This venue is downtown Madison. Such a beautiful place to see this show! Loved it!
Very nice and open entryway, not cramped like some theaters I have been to. All the seats have great acoustics.
Absolutely loved this venue. Very clean and spacious. Not a bad seat in the house. Every staff member we encountered was super nice
Have attended numerous performances here and the accommodations and service are too notch. I arrived late for an MSO performance and they quickly re opened the box office with a smile and seated me at the first break. We’re lucky to have such a beautiful venue in Madison.
State of the art venue located in downtown Madison with a great selections of shows, artists, musicians, etc. throughout the year. Seats comfortable. Great food and specialty cocktails options at concessions during performances.
Amazing venue! We went to the International Festival. The event was outstanding! There are so many stages of varying types. The building is beautiful.
This place is so much fun to visit. I highly recommend that you visit their site and get tickets for a show.
This venue allows no carry ins, but they do offer beverages and snacks inside, including alcoholic options.
Enjoy!
