    Beautifully restored theater. We see many CATS performance plays and other musical performances. Many plays are music based or feature lots of children. They usually have great lighting, choices of performances, and comfortable seating. They have refreshments for sale in the lobby in intermission. Bathrooms on the first and 2nd floor. Balcony and floor seating have wheelchair-accessible spots with elevator between floors. They also have a neat art gallery on the second floor with different artists.

    Small quaint theater in a southern Virginia small-town. The performances are enjoyable with local talents on display. I encourage everyone to support their local community theaters and arts and the Colonial deserves the support of their community.

    Very nice staff! They did everything from helping us to find our seats to showing us around the building talking about the history.

    The Bluegrass show, 9-20-14, was not as good as it has been in the past due to the sound. Sound for the Homegrown Bluegrass wasn't too bad but when it got to the Appalacian Express, the bass fiddle drowned out all the other instruments and the performers knew it but couldn't get it corrected. AND, if we had known the "timeline" was so "tight", we'd not given the Homegrown Bluegrass a standing ovation and shortened the Appalacian Express's time for performing,. AND, I, for one, did not like the idea of turning on the lights before the performers were finished with their song. I thought this was very rude. I've been to their performances before at the Colonial Theatre and thoroughly enjoyed each groups performance but sound was much better BUT none were advised their time was up with turning on lights like they were on a curfew. That could have been handled differently if the director had to get home.
