Beautiful buildings. Clean facilities. Art gallery is a must see. Enjoyed seeing Drum Tao. Great family experience.
Always a great show. We usually take our 9 year old granddaughter and she loves the different performances. We saw Nutcracker Ballet, an EXCEPTIONAL show.
Staff amazing.Diverse and interesting and sometimes sensational programming..a jewel in our community
Best place for Met HD performances: quality of sound, comfortable seats, run into friends
The theaters on the first floor of the theater side are great for all of the plays that happen there (done almost completely by students).
Saw a Spanish Dance show. Great venue for shows. All seats good.
Wonderful place.Its great to have a venue devoted to all forms of the arts!
Great place to watch a performance. All seats are good. A lot of leg room.
Great family destination. Not a bad seat in either performance hall. Friday double features a real treat. Visit the art gallery whenever possible. Free evening and weekend parking. While there, stop in next door and visit the Wang Center. Ever-changing exhibits, and very good food served cafeteria style at Jasmines (sp?).
Staller Center offers both fine films as well as live entertainment. You may find an acrobatic circus troupe performing for both young and old on one occasion. Perhaps, to your delight, you will listen to fine classical music performed by graduate students, the finest offerings east of Manhattan. My preference for the past seven years are the film festivals which some may claim rivals Cannes. My sweetheart and I are among the many regular patrons who support the Arts here at SUNY Stony Brook. This theater is a hidden gem.
Roomy, great for outdoor events like outside viewings. A lot of seats with good room and great sound.
Loved all the shows we have seen there
Great space for the performing and visual arts too ... They have the Metropolitan Opera Streaming, and they show movies once in a while. It has a recital space, a cabaret studio, and a main stage for concerts, ballet, opera productions and Broadway shows.
They have a big theatre where any seat has a clear view of the stage.
The theater is comfortable.The screen is big and the programming is excellent.
Awesome show! The place has changed since I went to school there.
They always have amazing shows there.
Here for a graduation. Seats are comfortable. Good acoustics.
Saw Winton Marsalis and it was phenomenal
Our son spent 8 years here working on Masters and Doctorate degrees. It is a great facility.
It was essy to find... accommodating to my husband who needs an elevator and the acoustics were phenomenal! We enjoyed the Soweto Gospel show and were very blessed!
Spike Lee was a great guest!
Great place to go to if you like theater, opera, student orchestra performances, movies and musical performers. Its inexpensive and you save by not having to drive to the city and find & pay for parking. Well worth it. Check out their website.
There isnt a bad seat in the place, sound quality good!
Great venue, seating and acoustics. Parking garage is a 2 minute walk to the Stalker center.
Small but interesting art gallery; also venue for music and theater
Attended graduation ceremony, nice venue comfortable seating, clean good acoustics.
Great variety of culturally diverse shows. Frequent problems with the sound system cost them a star, however. Parking is NOT 15 minutes away as another reviewer reported, there is plenty of parking within a 1 or 2 minute walk.
Very nice theatre. Great venue
Beautiful place. There is always something interesting going on
This venue offers a wide variety of performances. Symphony orchestra, jazz, dance, popular music, film festivals, lectures and on and on.
Great concerts and movies for the public, but seating and acoustics are not so great. Either come very early and sit way down front, or come late and sit at the very top. There is a dead zone in the very large middle seating - the sound can be muddy and filled with half-echoes.April 2018: Recital Hall is smaller and more intimate and much more comfortable! Acoustics are great, too, thankfully.
We went to see an opera here and had a wonderful time. The theater is small so every seat is a good seat. Pretty building, pretty theater and ticket prices are very reasonable.
Parking is a minimum 15 minute walk from the hall. If you go there, you should know this. The hall is wonderful, but it IS on a college campus. NO PARKING. Oh, and the staff was very unknowledgeable. No kidding. My entire party thought so.
Great auditorium....easy parking.....wine selection could be better....easy in and out...
Shows are always great. Never been disappointed
Free parking, easy entering and existing theater, great view of the stage from all seating, clean environment.
Great acts from the finer arts. Saw nearly flawless performance by Parsons Dance Company -- renowned modern dance/mixed ballet and other surprises.
Was here for the Drum Heart show. A very nice small theater experience. Facilities are beautiful. Staff friendly.
Attended opening night if the 22nd annual film festival. Saw a wonderful movie and expect to see many more during the next 20 days. Well organized program.
We went to see Heriditary movie there, $10 on a Friday night in october 2018. Cozy seats, they rarely showcase horror movies there they explained while seated. It wasnt scary to my btw but not staller centers fault of course. I had my school ID from 30 years ago to jokingly show the ticket person but she was unamused (my alma mater) . There was a candy counter and coffee was available which I have never had, true story. Btw, Heriditary, not so true, hah. I would go back to staller center for another event, for the record.
Nice quiet place to see a show or movie. Art gallery too. People are a little snotty
Not a bad seat in ther house
Pat Metheny played the Staller center & he was UNBELIEVABLY great. The center was perfect. Clean & acoustically perfect.
Marchands School of Dance does their recital here every year...beautiful facility and all good seats
Standard theater with decent acoustics and interesting events
Great place to see a show. Modern dance was very imaginative and entertaining.
I had such a good time
Not all events are affordable but it is a place of top notch performances of all types and genres.

Loud, and to many TV screens, but beer and food good
Great varied programs. Top cultural offerings.
Wonderful concerts, amazing acoustics.
Practice rooms and bathrooms are a little dated. Facilities are very adequate. Billy Joels Bosendorfer is a treat.
This place hosts wonderful dance performances, at a fraction of the price of Manhattan events.
Good place to see shows and movies. Not a bad seat in the house
Quality shows at a great price.
