Although the theater was nice, I couldn't see the stage due to a rail obstructing my view.

Attended the Ahmanson Theatre for the first time this past weekend to see Matthew Bourne's Romeo and Juliet and the place itself is truly unique. I loved the vibes, the architecture, etc. The show was amazing. FYI pictures of performance were taken during intermission not during the actual show. I'm not that rude lol.

Mathew Bourne’s Romeo & Juliette at the Ahmanson Theatre was an extraordinary experience. Got the chance to catch the closing night performance and it was extraordinary. Great space and accommodations.

Beautiful theater with fantastic audio with high-quality shows. The Ahmanson is in a nice, clean part of downtown Los Angeles with some decent food options within walking distance. It’s important to note that the parking garage is $10 cash only with very limited (if any) street parking nearby.

Beautiful modern theater with no bad seats. Helpful staff, multiple spots to grab a drink before the show (and pre-order for intermission). Note that there are two parking garage entrances along Grand Ave., so if you're stuck in a long entrance line you can go on to the next one.

Enjoyed watching A Christmas Story - The Musical tonight, 12.09.2023. Had decent seats which were purchased on cyber Monday for discounted price.

If you love the theater like my family, this is one of the best we've been to. While we aren't local to the area, we don't mind driving 3+ hours to enjoy a play. The staff is friendly and the seating is nice. They could use a bigger snack bar but that's no big deal. Parking is easy and it's easy to take the escalator up to the main entrance. Try it out next time they're showing a play that suits you. We've seen 3 there and they were great! Peter Pan Goes Wrong and The Play That Goes Wrong. Both were well acted and funny.

I've visited the Ahmanson more times than I can even remember. It's one of my favorite places to see theater. Every year they curate a fantastic selection of shows. While some are better than others, I've never been disappointed in a selection. There's really not a bad seat in the house and I've sat all around the theater. The staff is without fail always a pleasure to deal with. If you're on the fence about seeing a performance there, go do it. You won't regret it.

My only negative would be that the drinks are overpriced even for a theater. Drop the cocktail prices by like 2 dollars and it would be perfect.
