The Scarlet Letter Musical was fantastic ️. Theatrical performance at its best. Well done. One song by Hester could be a number 1 hit on the charts of musicals.

As an employee of Theatre Harrisburg, I know my review will seem self-serving, but I have enjoyed both volunteering and working for the theater since 2013. I look forward to work every day and I very much enjoy the art we bring to the community... otherwise, I wouldnt work there.

This place offers really good live performances that you would not expect to find in a town this size. Ive seen a few shoes here and all were fantastic. Its a level above community theatre for sure.

Theater Harrisburg is probably the best place to go for a live theater in the Harrisburg Area ever. If you do not go to this place you are missing a great opportunity for a cultural experience that youll never forget. The next time I go I hope i have a cute date that goes with me.

A lovely small theatre with the greatest live entertainment in Central Pennsylvania. My wife and I will surely be return visitors.

I am not affiliated with the troupe or the theater or anything, I am just someone who was looking for something fun to do with my family. We decided to go to the Whitaker Center to see A Funny Thing Happened On the Way to the Forum by the Theater Harrisburg company. Now, I have seen lots of plays and musicals from high schools to community theater, to road shows to bigger venues like Lincoln Center, Kennedy Center and of course Broadway. I dont really try to compare the different levels of productions to each other because they arent the same. Still, sometimes they are pretty bad, and you find yourself applauding just because you feel so bad for the actors who are trying so hard, but just arent being successful.This was an excellent production from a smaller community group! I was sort of expecting some Waiting For Guffman moments, but it really wasnt like that at all. The actors were well-rehearsed, practiced, articulate, and could sing well (even the more difficult Sondheim stuff.) The casting was very good. Some actors were better than others (this is especially noticeable when actors are on stage, but not speaking.) Some had excellent comedic timing, some less so, but none were actually bad. The orchestra was fine as wellThe biggest disappointment of the night was the audience. Those of us there were engaged and having a great time. But there werent enough of us! It was sad to me that folks dont more fully support their local theater. It only gets better with more support. So spend what you would on a nice dinner or movie instead on your own community.I am trying to help spread the word that these was a fine local show, and the folks involved are doing a great job. I only moved to Harrisburg recently and only love here part-time, but I look forward to seeing more from them!

Great theatre to see a play or work with the crew. Affordable and laid back. The crew is like family to all who visit.

I was in Big Fish at Theatre Harrisburg and it has been my favorite theatrical experience by far. The quality of shows are great and the experience behind the curtain is also wonderful.

Am I correct to hear that you r Theater is not willing to represent Michael Zorger in one of your shows?? If so, its really your loss!! He is by far one of the biggest talents to come out of Harrisburg. I personally have seen himOn a few occasions bring down the house with is outstanding performance. The man is a Star!!! You should be honored to have such a talent as a part of any of your shows.. It sounds like someone has a chip on their shoulder and hasnt had the successful career that Michael Zorger has had.. Stop hiding and if there is good reason let him know instead of hiding. Shame shame shame on you!!
