Absolutely fabulous entertainment & talent! We will be enjoying more life entertain here.

The shows are usually very high quality! Their musicals are often where they shine the most, but the straight plays are very good as well. The talent pool in this area is astounding and you can tell that they really cast for the good of the show, instead of casting friends and family like some other theaters.The building needs a bit of a remodel and you definitely need to come early if you want to find parking, especially if there is an arena event.Their tickets may be a little pricey, but they now offer rush tickets for all ages for $15, which is extremely affordable for the quality shows! They probably put on some of the best productions in the Spokane area, and I am thankful to have a place like this so close to home!

My wife and I went on a double date to see Its a Wonderful Life. It was fantastic. The protagonist absolutely killed it. Our entire group was convinced he was truly wheelchair bound! The play was incredible and the entire cast killed it. Very little experiance with the typical over the top live acting. It was a great rendition and the comedy was spot on. Cant wait to see more from the Spokane Civic Theatre!!!!

Saw A Gentlemans Guide to Love and Murder, which was awesome! The cast did a great job, the script was clever, the set was adequate, but what stood out the most was the actor, Todd Kehne. He played multiple parts with and stole the show in my opinion. I wouldnt hesitate to purchase tickets for anything this man is cast in

Great show! Small theater, but comfortable enough. Parking was hassle free, $8, in the arenas lot.

Intimate venue providing an on stage feel. Not a bad seat in the house. Order your refreshing beverage before the show and it will be waiting for you at the reception desk to skip the line during intermission.

First time at the intimate little downstairs theater. Awesome venue! My wife and I are both English majors/Shakespeare nerds and never knew the historical significance of the true life plot of The Book of Will. The players were fabulous and wed be surprised if we dont see them in bigger productions.

I have now been to two events at the Civic. The first, was a show a friend was in, Cactus Flower. The first show was really well done. The show had good directing and the cast had a good time. The second event was a week long class my daughter attended a week long class with a performance on the last day. I am decidedly biased, but the performance was really good. Again, indication of very good directing especially given he had been working with 10 to 13 year old girls. When measuring a theater, quality largely comes down to the ability to find good directors, so far the Civic has delivered great directing, which result in good and great theater. The Civic is definitely a top tier local show house.

Great venue to see local plays. The seats are comfortable and wide for larger folks to sit comfortably. They have wheelchair seating in the top rows for those that need it. In the lobby they have a wine and espresso stand with some snacks as well. Its a wonderful venue and they have equally wonderful plays.

Recently saw a production of Matilda. I was blown away by the professionalism of the actors. We will definitely be visiting for a play in the future.

We just saw the play the Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night. Very nicely done. Creative set, great lighting and effects. All of the actors did a fine job (British accent and all). Nick, who played the lead was incredible in his portrayal of a young man with autism. Would highly recommend.

The Memory of Water was advertised as being suitable for ages 12+, but I would certainly not take a twelve year old to see it due to adult content. If this play were rated similarly to a movie it would be rated R due to language, sexual content, and drug use, not to mention girls taking their clothes off.It would be helpful for customers to know what the content of the play is before hand and have it advertised for more age appropriateness.

I saw Kiss me Kate on a Thursday evening. We had good wine, wonderful finger food and dessert before the show. It would be nice if there was more room in the foyer. The play itself was done by talented actors and the costumes were amazing! I want to see more shows there.

Review №94

My parents took me to this theater when I was young and I really enjoyed watching the musicals. The performance was truly amazing. There were no distractions since the theater has some policies regarding cellphones, taking photos or videos, and coming in late. I still watch their musicals but only once in a while since the parking fee is costly.
