    My first visit to EJ Thomas for the Cirque Holidaze Dreams show. Absolutely magical. Both the show…read moreand the hall were gorgeous with Christmas decorations and finery. Convenient parking garage attached. Full bar with reasonable prices! Seats are roomy. It's big enough to hold a crowd but small enough to still feel intimate. Tons of folks to help direct you and find your seat but the seating is logically laid out so you can also manage on your own. I will look for other shows to attend. It's a wonderful venue.

    We purchased front row center seats in the balcony because we wanted to sit in the center of the…read morefront row in the balcony. IMMEDIATELY after scanning my tickets I got told we have something better for you and was given different tickets than my mobile tickets I already scanned. I argued and they sent me to those seats anyway. Upon checking them, I returned back to the person and said no I paid for balcony front row in the center. You're trying to put me all the way to the right in the last row up against the wall on the bottom level. The workers then in a very snarky tone said go upstairs to your seats then and you can scream all you want up there. On our way we were stopped by another person trying to give us "a better view". Once at the entrance for our level someone else tried to get us to get different seats and then when we were sitting someone ELSE tried to "upgrade" our seats. If you don't want people on your balcony, don't sell balcony tickets.

    Here we are again At Jesus Christ Superstar and no true handicap access, every time we come I get…read moremad this building is so poorly built there should be a bathroom on every floor not in the basement always have to wait to use the one gender neutral bathroom, one just one person at a timethen we couldn't get handicap parking even though we were there half an hour before the show, had to hold my husband up and stop several times to get there and there were no ramps to get in . Love the shows hate the building ! oh I forgot to mention the one small elevator from the parking garage when you can get in the garage it's always a long wait I notice it's mostly an older audience they need to accommodate their supporters. Frustrating!

    This place is horrible. Start with lack of parking due to evening classes at the university plus…read morenegative temps in Ohio. Then go to the box office that is not heated and have the manager belittle you because you didn't print out your groupon (which by the way says you can show the mobile app at the door--he claims that it says somewhere that they can't accept the mobile app but couldn't show me where). Then go in to realize the restrooms are in the basement!? And they only accept cash for all merchandise and concessions (which of course are overpriced) and the only ATM is in the box office... But there's no reentry. So get with the 21st century Akron. Get some phone scanners, credit card machines, or an ATM inside. And teach your employees some customer service. This place is an embarrassment to the university of Akron. Show started 7minutes late and then they kept opening doors to let in the late comers. Good etiquette is waiting until between songs to come in and out. I teach my 5th graders that.
