The renovations theyve done are wonderful! Acoustics are awesome! However when people are rude and talking during the show, like they were during the opening act for Chris Jason, you can here them in stereo. Chris Jansen was definitely one of the best concerts Ive ever been to, saw him at The Opry in June, couldnt wait to see him again! So much energy and so much love for the music and his fans! It was a wonderful experience!

What a great theatre. Old and classic. Friendly staff that seem to be really pleased that you are there. Great sight lines from everywhere that I have sat. I wouldnt recommend the balcony if you have long legs; its a tight fit. Not worth the lower price to me. And if youve not been to Marietta before, come early and talk a walk around. Its a beautiful town.

Beautiful theatre with plenty of seating. Theatre was very clean and very well maintained. However, as a 64 dude, the seats are kind of small and uncomfortable. They lacked elbow and leg room and my knees were against the seats in front of me (although thats pretty much everywhere I go). That aside, I would definitely go to another event hosted there.

A true gem of a theater! I went down to see Hot Tuna. The seating was very comfortable, and very clean. Pletty of beverages and snacks were available. The overall sound was great especially for an acoustic performance.

What a great theatre! Wonderful people, comfortable and tons of womens rest rooms. Clean. Concession stand offering candy, popcorn, water, soda, wine and beer.Nice stage and very cold air conditioner. Bring sweater. Dont hesitate though - terrific experience for us. We saw Bye Bye Birdie, Summer 2019.

Chose the balcony for the Columbus Orchestra. As a 62 guy I found the seats to be small enough to be bothersome but not small enough to make the 2 hour show unbearable. The acoustics were great and I will be back again.

Im happy to have this historic place up and running, BUT after attending an event there, I wasnt really impressed. Friendly staff. Prices are little high for what you get. Seating was uncomfortable with no cupholders and not much room between you and the seat in front of you. Overall an okay place to go.

Beautifully restored theater - returned to its former glory! We got to see the traveling version of the 5point Film Festival here during the Rivers, Trails and Ales festival - staff was extremely friendly - they let my 9 year old in for free when the cut off was 6 (not my idea - they just said he looks 6!) From the ads that played before the movie it looks like they have a great line up of live performances scheduled.

In the upper most part of the balcony they told us as soon as David McCullough started and people were seated they would turn off the intense lights 2 ft. Above our heads making it extremely hot. WRONG. ...THEY LEFT THEM ON THE WHOLE TIME! Fans only on for a part of the time. David McCollugh was great but the Theatre experience was not.

I couldnt be happier that our area now has such a spectacular performance venue. The Peoples Bank Theatre is truly a phoenix which has risen from the ashes thanks to the hard work and devotion of a dedicated group who simply wouldnt give up. I have attended several high quality performances here and look forward to many more. History, entertainment, and community all come together in this beautiful place.

Saw the Oak Ridge boys. First time there. Comfortable. Nice decor. Had seats on main floor under the balcony. Sound bounces around under there and makes lyrics hard to hear. Next time seats in front of balcony.

I saw a recent concert at the theater. This theater has been renovated and is very nice looking. For viewing events there, if you are a tall individual I do not recommend sitting in the balcony seats. I am just 6 feet tall and my knees were eating the wood chair back of the seat in front of me for the entire concert.

We went to Peoples Theatre to see or listen to Aaron Tippon. Starting at 8pm, which did not happen. Had no idea we would listening to another couple singing for 40 mins which we didnt come to hear.Then we waited 30 mins for Aaron Tippon. 30 mins later his son came out to sing for 25 mins. witch I definitely did not want to here. Finally Aaron Tippon came out to sing, thought we were going to listen to him for at least a hour or an 90 mins. No, he lasted 25 or 30 mins.We went to listen to him, had to listen to his son, wish we could have avoided. So went show at 7:15, to only to listen to Aaron, he did not sing until 10pm. Not a very good night!!!

The staff was friendly and helpful. It was easy to find. Refreshment prices were a bit high, but the popcorn we had was delicious. The ambience was perfect and is kid friendly. Will definitely go back if given the opportunity. Ladies, the restroom on the second floor that we used, was nice & clean.

Fabulous recently renovated theater. Best part is the seating is well designed for short people like myself. Even though it is a historic building, the seating rises well enough to allow me to see clearly over the audience members in front of me. Excellent concerts and good vibes all around.

Seating is nicely elevated over the row in front of you, that is a plus for shorter people. The artwork/designs painted on the walls looks cheap which is a shame. Takes away from an authentic theater look.

Lovely restored old theater. Seats about 600. Excellent sound. Very active volunteer support and bookings. Large variety of acts. Book directly with them as the ticket sites are gouging. Handicapped seating available. Beer and wine as well as other refreshments. Parking not a problem. Restaurants and bars within 2 blocks.

Very disappointing in the ticket purchasing experience. I bought tickets less than a minute after they became available to the public, yet no seats were available in the first dozen or so! How? Why?They’re available now. So frustrated!

A FANTASTIC theatre with a long history, newly renovated and re-opening with the accoutrements of a top-notch theatre. Its beautiful (not at all a black-box or modern movie-theater style of decor; very tasteful and elegant). Ive had the opportunity to perform for a pre-opening private function here (as a member of the house band), and I can say that the technical staff and facility are prepared to host any performance that comes through with proficiency and style.
