    Good play. I liked it. But they changed a lot in the story of the Wizard of Oz

    We went to the park, "A Christmas Carol" and it was amazing! The actor playing Scourge was incredible. The whole production was so good and a real treat for the whole family.

    Had an amazing experience here. Laughed cried and enjoyed every minute of it. The actors and staff were equally amazing. Snack we're a bit expensive but an all around great experience.

    We saw Jersey Boys on a Sunday matinee. The admission process was quick and simple. The play had AMAZING talent. It's unbelievable that so much talent dwells in our modest community! At intermission, the ladies' bathroom line moved quickly, and the staff came to check on the status so as to hold the play if necessary. I thought that was very kind. Parking was super simple, even though there is construction on the block. Overall, we had a terrific time!

    Wow, I was really impressed with this venue. I don't think I have attended a show here before. I think it was local talent, but the size and the ability to hear and understand their words was incredible compared to the First Interstate theater. I will plan on going to more shows here for a fun evening. Easy in and out also.

    Excellent spot in our lovely city! The casts and the directors work really hard to produce excellent plays. Highly recommended!

    Awesome venue. The best live version of The Christmas Carol I've ever seen by far. We will be returning for sure.

    I am so heartbroken with the experience I had with this theater. From the get go there was miscommunication and no help. The site does not tell you when purchasing tickets they want you to purchase a ticket for a lap child. I get to the theater all excited with two purchased tickets. Assuming I had done the right thing since my 4 year old will be on my lap. And the site clearly just says “student pricing 5-25). Never does it say children under age 5 need a ticket. The volunteer followed me to the beverage line to inform me I will not be allowed into the theater with my two daughters, since I didn’t purchase a third ticket. I immediately offered to buy another ticket. However, the show was sold out. Again I offered to pay for her to sit on my lap, since she wouldn’t be using a seat anyway. Told no, so I offered cash. I understand there are rules, but being that they have a no refund policy it is really unfair for me to get credit to a company that isn’t even willing to work with a customer. Why would I want to further support a company that won’t accommodate. The Director never came out to speak with me, but used other people to do his dirty work. Really disappointed we couldn’t show support to our friend who was an actor in the show. All the while losing another $30 for parking, because it’s set at Event Rate, when there aren’t even any events going on.

    It's a pretty nice place and it seems to be remodeled somewhat recently. The chairs are a bit tight. I'm big but not all that big and it was tough to get comfortable - not as bad as an airplane, though! Parking varies wildly so check around and you can park a couple blocks away for about $3 instead of $20+.

    Had the best time doing a mamas and daughter's date. Gomez, from the Adam's Family production, was ridiculously fun to watch. Everyone was amazing, though!!

  • 5/5 Dan O. 6 months ago on Google
    The production we went to was Addams family and it was fantastic. The theatre itself is amazing, not a bad seat in the house. They serve beer, wine , soda and some snacks which is an added bonus!!

    I was at the Firth Chew Theater there. It's an intimate space without a bad seat in the house. The acting was superior. I felt like I was at a professional theater.

    Really amazing place. Has a very cozy feel to it and the plays are amazing. If you have friends and family in town, would highly suggest checking them out 😀

  • 5/5 Maryann T. 2 years ago on Google
    I love the Spokane Civic Theater! There are no bad seats in the house. Especially loved "The Play That Goes Wrong." Absolutely hilarious and great actors. We laughed the whole way through. Another great production was "The Christmas Story," and "A Christmas Carol." All really wonderful!

    They play was excellent. The parking was a little challenge, but should be corrected once construction next door is done.

  • 5/5 Karen U. 1 year ago on Google
    So glad Spokane has such a great venue to showcase local talent. Hopefully parking will improve after construction

    Watched Wizard of Oz today and they did an amazing job! I'm so impressed and will be back soon! The whole experience made me so happy!

    I love supporting local theatres! The production teams are always lovely to work with, and the actual productions are incredible. So excited to get to work with them in the future.

  • 5/5 Angelia S. 1 year ago on Google
    Watched Murder on the Orient Express. Cast was great.....Set was amazing. If you are hard of hearing ask them about assisted listening headphones. If there is NOT an event at the arena across street you can park for free. Otherwise it's $12.00. Support your local arts! It's worth it. Thanks Jen. 😃💜Loved the show.

    Amazed that I haven't left a review here yet - Regular patron of the theater, they always to a very good job. The side theater is an excellent place to experience intimate and immediate plays. The last play we saw was "Murder on the Orient Express" just a few weeks ago (June 2022) very well done, great set for the play.

  • 5/5 Jim J. 1 year ago on Google
    Murder on the Orient Express is well worth seeing. The production staff outdid themselves.

  • 5/5 Gatieh N. 2 years ago on Google
    It was fun attending the 75th Season Announcement. I saw theatre actors that I've worked before and never had a chance to work yet.

  • 5/5 Liz H. 2 years ago on Google
    Had a Fantastic time seeing "Funny Girl" on 4/14....so Well Performed by all. Loved it thoroughly!

  • 5/5 Lori I. 2 years ago on Google
    The current production is slapstick fun that runs a bit off track. So wonderful to experience live theater after so long!

  • 5/5 RaMona P. 2 years ago on Google
    Incredible entertainment. I saw Funny Girl. Incredible cast! Civic theater is always a can't miss on my list.

  • 4/5 Margie P. 1 year ago on Google
    The show and their personnel were fabulous !! But I had a real issue with their little stairs that lead to the lobby when the show is going on. I fell hard on those stairs. Couldn't tell if it was a ramp or stairs.

👍👍 The dipper is a Spokane icon for shows. And it looks like they are still putting good stuff on for us. If you like drinks and music this is your place.
