    It was an amazing show, all the Drag queen were outstanding, very professionals and accurate with the roll they were performing, very entertaining, my daughter and I love it and definitely will see them again, we are fans since their individual season, but after tonight, they have all our admiration and respect, drag queen crew you all are amazing. Thank you for the exquisite show.

    Had the pleasure of seeing Boz Skaggs and was very impressed by this delightful theater. There wasn't a bad seat in the house. The volunteers were very helpful and knowledge. Had a great time

    We went to see Liverpool Legends, a Beatles tribute band. Good show, lots of fun. The theatre will be 100 years old this September. The original decor is still present but in need of continuing renovation. A great venue for an evening entertainment.

    The total price for the show was reasonable. The parking was close and easy(parking was paid for separately). The facility was clean, and the staff were friendly. The line into the venue moved quickly and without much fuss. This received a 4 out of 5 because some of the age to the venue shows history and is charming.. but some of it is not as charming. The lower seating needs updating(I did not see or use the other seating). The width is comfortable, but the rest of it leaves something to be desired. That being said, it would not make me hesitate to attend other events here.

    Took my 11 year old to see Lindsay Sterling's Christmas tour. It was beautiful and magical, the seats were great, the view was excellent, the bathrooms were like a palace to her, popcorn was delicious,... well worth our money!

    Seats are a little strange that slide forward just a tad. No stairs, just a very steep down grade that'll catch you off guard and make you stumble. There is lots of history and classy place with a great sound system. For a special night out, this place is the ticket. Remarkable experience! 5 stars

    Went to spidy and friends, sat in the middle bottom balcony. It was fun and could see the stage well.

    Such a cool venue with a long and interesting past. I hope it continues to get great concerts at reasonable prices and that they get enough donors to bring it back to its former glory. Maybe some of those Wichita billionaires can help drive that 😏

    Of course I got the honor of setting up for a show here. And really this building has so much character I did not realize how old the Orpheum was . Plus the history that I never really realized it has as well as all the performing artist that has performed for wichitans here. So my advice to you is to put this down as a must do. Just to say you have got to be entertained by what ever show you choose to see. Just go!!!

    It was very cool experiencing Charlie Beren's tour at this beautiful historic venue. The line moved pretty quick even though Security was checking for weapons. FYI, the venue has no smoking area or outside access without going back through Security

    It was a great venue for the Amy Grant concert. A more intimate setting and good seating considering how old the building is.

  • 5/5 Tony F. 1 year ago on Google
    The show was 5 stars... the balcony seats are a little close together, so if you're there for a show be prepared for your knees to be near your chin. Also if in the balcony come down the wall steps as there is a hand rail. We saw "Who's Live Anyway" and it was fantastic. The sound was great it was easy to hear and interact. Highly recommend seeing the top notch shows they bring to town.

    This is a cool old theater. My friends and I went to see the midsummer night's dream ballet. The building is definitely beautiful. It's in need of some repairs but it's a piece of history and should be valued. Anywhere you sit in the theater the seats are great. I would highly recommend seeing a show here. There's also some good restaurants nearby and if you're into antiquing, there's a few right around the corner.

    Was asked to leave for getting out of my seat to get a scarf from entertainer. Was manhandled by want to be security. Lead back to seat and pushed down. I sat unil the entertainer until we giving out more scarfs but again I was not allowed out of my seat. But others were. I'm 80 years old never have I been treated like this. They need to let people know the rules before buying tickets. We were not aware you could not get out of seats. I spent 100$ on tickets this is not the movie theater it use to be. People get up clap and hollow at these events. Very bad experience we go to McPherson for this guy never have we had this problem. Never go back and would not recommend this place.

    Ive been here a couple times. Really neat place. Chairs are crampped and tight for bigger people but the shows here have always been fun. The bathroom is upstairs and absolutely gorgeous!

👍👍 All of the years that the Wichita community Theater has been open and this was our first visit, we have missed out on so much.
