The brown Theater is just simply fantastic. Great atmosphere, huge performances!
My wife and I went to The Brown Theater in Louisville, Kentucky, to watch a performance of Pirates Of Penzance. The theater wasn't as grand and ornate as some others we have been to. It was, nevertheless, very nice. The seats were comfortable, but, not wide enough for oversized people. If you're fat, don't go; you will be uncomfortable. That is unfortunate. The sound quality was good. The theater has valet parking. Because of the large crowd waiting for their cars to be brought around, the wait can be long. If you're in a hurry, or if it's cold outside, a few dollars in the right hand can put you at the top of the retrieval list. The opera was great.
Beautiful theatre. I was able to see a comedian here and the room was great. You can see and hear the performer well from any seat. Great night!
A beautiful theater. Small and quaint, not a bad seat in the place. I'm looking forward to seeing more shows here.
A beautiful theatre that's very clean and just the right size for an intimate performance. The volunteers and employees were all very friendly and helpful.
I love the Brown. Ive been here several times over the years and have seen a few shows. Always had a great time. Cant say I have bought alcohol or used the bathroom here, but I'm sure its like most other places. I usually try my best to steer clear of public bathrooms anyway. Definitely recommend seeing a show here. Seating is kinda tight, but nothing I couldnt handle for a few hours.
Beautiful old theater! It’s a great experience just to view the theater itself. I was able to go see Kelly Ripa who I have enjoyed since she first went on Live with Regis. The show was good but in the cost of the show we were included one of her books. Instagram showed her signing stacks of books. We thought we would get an autographed copy but no such luck. Also it was a pretty short show about 75 minutes and no question and answer period.
The theater is great though!
