The most awesome thing about this old movie theater is the work that they continue to do to maintain it. The company has done some great shows and the additional programs that they offer have something for everyone.

Family Sunday matinees are the best. Very affordable, diverse film offerings in a historic atmosphere.

Great original old school theater experience! Watched the new Warren Miller 2019 film, Timeless Saturday night. Great place to come for the event! Loved it! ️

My girls and i checked out Kiss Me Kate here just a month ago. It is a little run down but well worth a visit to stop and see a show. I will be coming back to this opera house.

Beautiful old theater. Staff was warm and friendly. Snacks and drinks available. Saw comedian Gabriel Rutledge. So funny!

Community theater. . . Classes for kids and teens. . . A class organization!

My girlfriend and I saw the play a Christmas Carol and the movie its a wonderful life at the Ellen. There is not a bad seat in the house and the place is beautiful. Ornately decorated and no expense soared on the live performance. We will be back to the Ellen soon.

A very well run, classic old theater. Very well rounded selection of events.

The show was well done. The only bad part was that the row we were seated in the seats were not secured to their mounting very well at all. I felt like I was sliding downhill the entire time which was uncomfortable.

The Ellen is a very nice little old theater and all the workers are so nice and friendly. I went for the showing of its a wonderful life and it was great

The Christmas Carol was a great production! But it was very cold in the theater. We had to put our winter coats back on to even start to get warm!

Wonderful show .. Full of energy and still an amazing venue . Happy 100th To the Ellen Theatre

Christmas Carol was an excellant play. Great ambiance

The ambience of an old theater is so worth it. I know that the seats arent the comfiest and the price is higher, but the theater is beautiful. You get great service not available in regular theaters and a wonderful theater you can admire before the show starts. It seems like the crowd gets more involved, funny and happy scenes seemed to be enjoyed all around the theater in a way you dont get in modern theaters.

I adore the Ellen Theatre and their great selection of theatre, artists, films and local performances. What a brilliant asset to Bozeman.

Here for a screening presented by the Bozeman Film Society. Great venue. Polite staff. Amazing feel with the old architecture and lighting. The screen and projection quality is very nice. Will be back for other screenings.

I have seen several plays at the Ellen. The atmosphere is wonderful and the staff takes care of you. The drinks are slightly overpriced, but such is life. Highly recommend checking out the next event.

We had a very disappointing experience at the Ellen today. When my wife purchased tickets for the documentary rewind she noticed on the website that one of her favorite movies from her childhood, Newsies was going to be presented so she placed the date on her her calendar. She also placed the time of the show on the calendar in the kitchen and mentioned it to me multiple times over the next 2 months. She asked me, the week of the show, to not make plans for Saturday at 3pm for this is when the show started. She double checked the time, and sure enough it was 3. We gathered the family up in the car and drove to the theater found parking and entered the theater only to find out that the movie it started at 2 p.m. Oddly enough the owners of the theater were in the lobby assuring everyone that it was the Bozones mistake and not their own and that they had checked their own website and then argued with us about whether or not we double-checked. We decided not to stay. I promptly checked their website to find nothing at all mentioned about the movie or when it started even though they assured us that they had checked their website and it was indeed 2 p.m. I love the Ellen and everything in it stands for but this particular experience really left a sour taste our mouth.

Not a bad seat in the house.

Good sightlines and good acoustics. They have done some nice restorationDid I mention good views of the stage?

Beautiful theater and a treasure that has been preserved.I do long for the days I watched Lord of the Rings without the heat on in here but far and away the remodeled and preserved space is better. It is a part of the Bozeman community so do yourself a favor and see a show here!

This place is so special to me - its a link to our vibrant past. The most recent owner has shown true love of our community and respect for our roots in the beautiful restoration he did of the theater. It takes you back to another era of art and beautiful architecture. They host a wide variety of entertainment for the community and care enough to make the ticket prices affordable for all. I dont think there is a bad seat in the house. You can buy wine and beer as well as coffee and water (other drinks too?) before the shows and at intermission - and sometimes snacks. This is a wonderful venue to see live performances with a small symphony in the pit, movies and community presentations. I highly recommend this venue!

Best Place to go in Bozeman for entertainment. They have music, movies, plays and musicals. And they have beer, wine, coffee and snacks. Check their website for free family movies too!

Cozy theater with good seating.

We enjoyed the Tate Academy production of Hamlet. Beautiful theater and wonderful time. Definitely check out what is being performed next time we are in Bozeman

My mother, sister and I absolutely adored our first time into the theater since its restoration. The interior is stunningly beautiful, and the pieces they chose to restore and repair were so well chosen. I would love to see this valuable community resource restored to every bit of glamour from its glory days and more. We will be coming back for as many show as we possibly can to support this beautiful historical facility.Side note - the concessions are more than decent. Nothing beats a great play with a glass of wine.

The Ellen is a 100+year old movie theater that has been lovingly restored to its youth. The venue is used for live performance as well as movies. In the summer classic Western movies are shown for the ticket price of $5, and classic movies are shown year round. Verdigris is next. A free family movie is shown monthly. He plays and musicals are locally cast and produced with unvelievable talent.It is an absolute community jewel.

I help move their supplys to do the show. The people putting on the show are very dedicated to doing a good job for that attend there shoes and I believe they all volunteer to do the hard work that goes into producing the show.

It is a beautiful place to see and hear a play, listen to music. It is lovely!

Went and saw a movie with daughter an we both enjoyed it immensely, what an amazing looking theatre and environment. Very fun afternoon for both of us

Shes a grand old lady in the style of what old movie theaters used to be. They have performances to suit everyones taste. Movies, dance, music, theatre. A beer and wine cash bar in the lobby. Management works hard to bring great entertainment to town. Parking in town can be tricky so plan to arrive a few minutes early.

Great historical theater, ticket prices are way way too cheap, and the productions are always fun.

Great experience. The show was better than expected. We will definitely be returning for more shows. Highly recommended if your looking for a fun filled evening.

We just saw “Annie” here last night. I’ve seen many live performances here and have to say this is such a gem for our small town. I had no idea we had this level of talent in our area. Everything from the set design, symphony, costumes, and the actors themselves were on a level I would have only expected in Seattle or Denver. We are so fortunate to have the Ellen and its staff- I’ll definitely be donating to make sure this amazing resource has what it needs to thrive.

Lovely old theater, great performances.

Great space beautifully restored.

The best venue Ive ever been too. Sound, seating and a great personal experience. Mgr. John has done a great job with the restoration and getting top acts. Free events as well. Love it.

Beautiful place, lots to see, comfortable reserved seats.

Another wonderful show. Love the history of the venue and the great comics.

An exceptional entertainment evening watching the production of Annie. The orchestra was top notch. The acting, singing and choreography superb! Thank you all for your hard work and dedication to producing such a fine performance.

A Bozeman gem! Ive just moved here and already seen three different types of entertainment. The prices are very reasonable and quality of the entertainers were great. Cant wait for the next show.

Like no other music experience or theater bozeman is so lucky to have the Ellen!

Love this place. Needs more funding to finish the restoration, but its an amazing love event venue -- even the performers who come through remark on the acoustics and the interior. Were fortunate to have it.

We saw the film Charged here. Its a fantastic place to go with friends and at times children. Im convinced that you will appreciate the history of this theater. A Bozeman landmark for sure!

I love their yearly Independance performance.

Great local place to get a little bit of culture in a small town. Theatre itself has lots of interesting architecture and history. The shows are always top notch, and most are affordable for what they are.

I love the arquitechture, their bathrooms, their organization for events, their flexibility and kindness and most of their theater work, music, dance and other shows.

Beautiful theater with comfortable seats, always something interesting on the venue.

Beautiful restored theater, great program

Very nice old theater, its small so most all seats are good. We have seen a lot of good shows/events here

What a cool place to see a show. Much cool history at 100 years old.

Great movie, filthy theater. We paid for theater seating and got placed in folding chairs. Lost a shoe that stuck to the grime on the floor.

A gorgeous theater that makes for a pleasant evening for plays, and independent films. Beer, wine and popcorn in the front lobby but classic decorations and friendly ushers in the theater make for a laid back but refined atmosphere. I feel good supporting an old Bozeman institution each time I patronize the Ellen.

All of the top movies played here when I was growing up and now the Ellen continues to be a valuable community resource.

Had a blast.

What a great old theatre. This years production of Annie was very well done. Keep up the good work.

Beautiful gem on Main Street in Bozeman. This is the perfect place to catch some entertainment and the folks at The Ellen are sure to keep the calendar full of it. From top notch musical acts to comedians to speeches to movies. They have it all. Spend your night at the Ellen!

Beautifully restored building

Great theater with interesting shows, and they continue to renovate this historic theater.

I love going to the Ellen to enjoy a place or special movie screening. The renovated theatre is beautiful and comfortable. A Bozeman classic.

Beautiful venue with operatic details, colors & vintage character.

Beautiful venue!

Fun show. Great venue.

The Ellen does a wonderful job of keeping the community involved through shows and events. Specifically, their showings of older movies allow for the next generation to relive their parents experiences.

Great historical theater to see plays.

Brings in great entainers. Some productions are local. Very fair prices. Theater is about 100 years old.

Really neat old theatre!

Saw Maudie, such a good movie, love our local film festival team, theyre always on top of their game selecting the best of the best.

We went to a documentary movie that was awesome.

Cool environment, variety of performance types. Very good concessions

Its THE place for local Bozeman performing arts events and talks.

We love the Ellen and love supporting this treasure in Bozeman through attendance and volunteering. They arent afraid to bring some occasional quirkiness along with sophisticated entertainment. Best of Show AND Waiting for Guffman in one night.

Great historic theater with good seating, decent sound and a great downtown vibe!

Great venue and Presentations

A true light for entertainment on Main Street. Theatre seats could use a refurbishment. You can have a beer or a glass of wine, too.

Every production Ive been to here has been wonderful!!

Great local theater. Interesting shows daily.

Always interesting programs

Neat, classic style theater. Decent acoustics.

A total gem. A wonderful venue with terrific shows. Go support the arts and see a great act!

I was surprised by the gem of a victorian style theatre inside the plain fecade. Besides the beautiful venue, some surprisingly good shows and actors show here.

This is Bozemans only art-house theater. Great assortment of films and events.

The Ellen Theatre is great. Whether going for a concert, a movie, a play, or an elementary school fundraiser, it never disappoints!

Great, place for family friendly shows in a good old fashioned theater!

Its beautiful after the renovation. Definitely a piece of Bozeman history to be proud of.

Nice throwback theatre with a great variety of offerings.

I went to see Once Upon a Mattress, the theatre is gorgeous, the actors/actresses are good, great selection for refreshments, great bathrooms, amazing staff!

The Ellen is great! A real piece of what makes Bozeman, Bozeman!

Went to see Take Two great movie and a great venue.

Great place for live theater, old movies, Oscar movies, live music, comedy, and more!

I love the community theater events at the Ellen. A great theater.

I find the hidden fees associated with events at the Ellen to be quite distasteful. If you are going to advertise a ticket price just advertise it at what I can expect to pay you at the box office. Dont advertise that the cost is $5 for a student to attend an event like Pecha Kucha and then tell me its really $8 (ish) with the mandatory fees. Some years ago the box office refused to give me that student deal for Pecha Kucha - they said there was no such thing - even though I had read it in the Get Out section of the newspaper. The only way they let me in was making me pay the regular ticket cost - once I got home I found the student price listed in the paper. I think its great they occasionally play classic movies there but I never go as I know the fee troll is lurking at the box office. Please just be up front about the cost to attend an event. I had emailed my concerns at one point but never got a response. The interior is beautiful (not the lobby though) which is why I came up with two stars.

The Quaid show was awesome even the balcony was perfect.

Check their schedule, always something great is happening here.

We went to see Anne, great production, great facilities.

Orchestra was awesome tonight.

It was as authentic as the experience can get!

A great local theatre. ..with an amazing history

The building is old and interesting. The play was fun

Great historical place to be entertained at.
