    This is just the most fantastic place to catch a show. There isn't another building like it, and it's worth going just to tour the theater itself. The history and artistry in every detail, covers every inch of this truly breathtaking theater. The quality of the shows here are also top notch, and we have never seen a bad one. Memorable for the entire family, a must see if you can. We took our children to see "Bluey's Big Play". It was fun and engaging for every member of the family! It takes a lot of skill to be that intriguing to teens, adults, young children, and a toddler. We hope to be back again soon, the lineup of new shows all looked amazing!

    I have been to this theatre many times over the years for all types of shows. I aways have a great time. Most seats have great views. I've only struggled to see a show when I sat in the very last row on the second floor balcony. It's a good idea to go with a lower row on the second floor. If you are able to get seats in the boxes for a special occasion I recommend it. You'll have parking on the theatre lot and also a waiter that you can purchase drinks and snacks from. If you're a season ticket holder definitely buy the parking pass for the parking garage nextdoor. It's very convenient. Buy your food and drinks when you first get in the doors because if it is a sold out show they will run out of things sometimes. Seats are comfortable and the staff is knowledgeable.

    An actually fabulous venue! It’s stunning architecture is jaw dropping. No matter how many times I come to this building I always see something new and beautiful that I missed before. It’s a large and well thought of venue that hosts broadways biggest productions like Hamilton, Wicked, and Lion King. No matter what seat you’re in, you’re sure to have a memorable and enjoyable experience! Pro tip, the bathrooms on the top floor are usually quieter than the rest, and the ladies lounge is gorgeous!

    The interior of this place is a-may-zing! I could have sat for hours just admiring details in the interior! Saw a good kid's show (Bluey). We had seats in the balcony, and the view wasn't the greatest. Minimal food available for purchase, so eat beforehand. Overall, a good experience. The kids enjoyed themselves, and that's really all that matters.

    Amazing venue! The sound is perfect and the line of sight throughout the theatre is great. I have had seats in 4 different sections now and there really isn't a bad seat. Some sections are easier to get to the bar, or the bathrooms (there could be more bathrooms). Drink options were plenty, food options were few, but overall, one of the better places to take in a concert/musical/play.

    An absolutely amazingly beautiful theater!! We were treated to a comedy show by my husband's work here. We had a catered dinner before the show that was very good and got to wonder around the theater. The seating was terrific, not a bad seat in the house!

    This location is absolutely stunning! A phenomenal example of period architecture and opulence! We saw Wicked, which we had all seen score in NYC, by this location is a show stopper! We had Club seats, great service and tasty bits all served right to our seats all while surrounded in beauty. I took the time to stroll around the building and snap some photos because I was amazed! Over 4000 seats! Remarkable journey in time!

    What an amazing historic theater. The architecture and design can leave you in as and amazement. Not only do you get to experience top notch productions but you can explore the visually masterpiece of The Fabulous Fox. There is a nice drop off area if you are taking a car to the show which makes arrival and departure very easy. There are plenty of outlets for food and drink and as with many theaters plan to spend some time in line. Not sure if it was just the show we attended or not but the sound quality was not perfect.

    It was my first time at The Fabulous Fox at it did not disappoint! It is so beautiful. I went to see the Tina Turner Musical with a group of great friends and we all had a Fabulous time. We went to an evening show and used the parking garage that is on the next block beside the theater. We had bought a parking ticket ahead of time on line which cost $20 for the evening. We arrived about an hour and a half early and ate at Gary's fine dining. At this time there was construction around Gary's with fence up but there are people guiding you so you know how to get in. They had an all you can eat buffet so there was no worries about getting our food on time. The buffet food was okay but the people who work there were awesome and we had a great time! We did try going to eat at Stage Left restaurant which is right next to the Fox on the same block but they were full by then and had people waiting.

    Got to see Hamilton at Fox Theater while in town for a couple days. Such a cool theater with some rich history. The theater is massive! I recommend the cocktail if available. That’ll warm you right up. Lol

    As always, The Fox was amazing. It is known as The Fabulous Fox and delivers - simply stunning architecture and a yearly line-up of amazing entertainers and Broadway shows. There is no bad seat at the Fox. Come early and tour Peacock Alley to see all the amazing artists that have performed at the Fox since its opening. True nostalgia meets you at the front sidewalk. I have seen many shows and look forward to the next one. It never gets old!

    My first show at the Fox, Temptations Ain't too proud. The show was amazing. This theater is indeed fabulous! So beautiful. And the staff are outstanding. We went on a tour the next day. It was really interesting too. Everyone should make a visit to this venue at least once.

    Absolutely incredible experience! It's wonderful to enjoy live theatre again. Hamilton was amazing and the staff at the Fox was awesome. Bathroom lines were very long, but the staff directed patrons to bathrooms with shorter lines as needed. After the show, we were able to see the orchestra put before leaving and learn some history of the Fox from some staff as well.

    Lovely theater. Beautifully restored Siamese-Byzantine decor. Nicely done by the Fox Associates. Friendly and cordial staff. Enjoyed the ice cream social during intermission.

    Loved the Fox theatre in St. Louis. The shows are always great but the architecture and design are absolutely breathtaking! The Mighty Wurlitzer Organ takes you back to the golden days of theatre. It’s played during weekend tours right now. Take in all the detail of this gorgeous theatre!

    First visit to The Fabulous Fox Theatre and it is indeed FABULOUS!!! The theatre is beautiful (get there early so you can see just how beautiful it is)!!! The staff were very helpful and friendly. I saw, no I experienced, the show WICKED!!! It was AMAZING!!! I had front row seats and was amazed at the detail in the costumes and set designs. The lines for the souvenirs looked long but I was amazed how quickly they moved along!!!! I was unsure if I would like going to a musical….I didn’t…I LOVED it!!! I am hooked and already looking for my next performance to attend….if you get a chance to attend any performance at The Fabulous Fox, DO NOT miss it….you won’t regret it!!!!

    Went to see Hamilton. Wonderful production. Great cast. Beautiful venue. We were in row N one aisle to the right of center. There were many occurrences where it was difficult to understand the words being spoken/sung by the cast. Sometimes because the music was too loud, other times because the cast was so soft in their delivery. It wasn’t just because the delivery of words is so fast during this production.

    I love the Fox and always will the building is unbelievable - I could spend hours looking at the details - and the shows they host are always incredible. The staff is fantastic. Can't recommend this place enough.

    I had the opportunity to go to the Fabulous Fox for the first time today, and let me tell you - the name does NOT do this theater justice. From the moment I stepped inside I was just overcome with awe at the ornate decor and architecture in this theater. I went to see Wicked and the seats were PHENOMENAL - comfortable, spacious, and very easy to locate. I will definitely be purchasing tickets to more shows here!

    Fabulous is not a big enough word for the Fox. This grand and amazing architectural wonder is the jewel of St. Louis. No matter who you see perform here, you are doing it with magnificent style and grace. Thank you for hosting Cirque Du Soleil's Twas the Night Before. Amazing performance. Amazing venue!! I hope to join you again soon, and often!

    Truly one of my favorite places. I’ve been going here for years and it’s still an experience like no other. I’ve seen all the Broadway series shows the last two years along with some music performances and it just keeps getting better. The service is top notch and the drinks are always strong and cold. Best pretzels in town.

    A beyond beautiful theatre! They did an amazing job restoring this place to its former glory! Got to see Beetlejuice here, and the cast was phenomenal. Furthermore, I was beyond impressed with the ambiance and it seemed like every seat in the place was a great view! I would come here for plenty of more shows to enjoy here at the Fabulous Fox.

    This was my first time to the Fabulous Fox Theatre. I went to see Beetlejuice the musical. This was an amazing experience! It's not only a beautiful theatre but the musical was the best! I would highly recommend checking this place out if you enjoy musicals or other shows!

    Very nice ambiance! The seating is pretty cool as well. My only complaint is that they did not have enough staff at each of the concession stands, the line was a mile long with a 20min intermission and only one worker was there on that level. Otherwise, it was a lovely experience!
