A grand old art deco 1930s movie theater now in its 75th year standing but in much need of a face…read morelift. The components are all there - this beauty just needs a little help. On the national historical registry since 2010. the wife and I were there one evening recently for an ArMack Orchestra performance, the sound within the auditorium is very good and I'm sure in her prime she was a grand venue, but this building has definitely seen better days. The first thing I noticed was the "mushy" smell when you walk into this large space - mold, dust and disrepair are apparent. The art deco interior is still very much there and intact - mostly just needs an update after all the years of neglect. Great stylized cut glass wall sconces, and stylized cut glass overhead light fixtures along with the lobby entrance and foyer details reveal just how great this grand structure was back in its day. High ceiling soar overhead and two huge murals - left and right of the stage reminded me that this used to be a place where people in the town gathered regularly in a different era. This space is now a multicultural facility for the performing arts and monthly movies. Also available for rent for special events, weddings, parties, concerts, etc. This is a special place within old Town downtown Eureka that needs to be used to keep her alive, and is in need of some loving restoration to keep around for future generations. Still a 4 Star venue for all of its awesome architectural details that still exist after seven plus decades. And, a venue that has the potential to be a true 5 star gem - with a little help. 00127

If you're not coming here to watch films, you're missing out! This non-profit art deco theater is…read moreentirely volunteer run and is in the process of being lovingly restored. They feature awesome programming like "Science on Screen," when science lectures accompany sci-fi films, and live scores by musicians such as the Invisible Czars. Visiting the theater for their monthly noir night has become one of my favorite activities since moving to the area. Definitely grab a local beer, cider, glass of wine or speciality cocktail while viewing a flick--all proceeds go toward the theater's restoration. Rumors has it that the theater will soon have it's own deco Air BnB for rent upstairs--can't wait to recommend it to out of town visitors :)

We have had season tickets to NCRT for six years. I am continually blown away that our small town…read morehas this caliber of theater. The acting, sets, costumes and directing are always top notch. They make full use of their small space with cast utilizing the rows between the audience's seats. Each season they present six plays. There is always at least one musical, comedy, and a Shakespeare. Each runs for a few weeks with most performances on Friday and Saturday evenings and with a couple of performances on Sunday afternoon. Tickets are very affordable but the season ticket is the real bargain. I have never been disappointed. Yelp asks whether this is good for kids. The simple answer is generally not but some of the plays are kid friendly.

Your ticket doesn't have a seat number. We wound up sitting on hard folding chairs next to a speaker for 2 hours. Lost feeling in my legs half way through and we could only see half the stage. My wife had a recent spinal fusion and couldn't bare the seats for too long. Great show! Shoddy theater!

What a wonderful, welcoming, communal space!…read more I was invited to perform here by the Zero to Fierce Festival, and the team here has it going on! I worked with Jackie, Joyful, TL, Mobius, and so many other team members; I'm so grateful to have performed my show THE ANTI "YOGI": Liberation, Not Lululemon, at such a supportive space! I was impressed by the community engagement, hunger, and interest to listen/participate/share. The artwork presented inside is beautiful, the space hosts so many types of shows- and it can accommodate a lot of people! It is truly a communal space; hosting lunchbox sessions to discuss the topics with the artists coming in and the radio station is right next door. Everyone is very supportive toward artists and helping artists; they are engaged in supporting the artist however they may need. They display art work/exhibits in the common area and try to bring in diverse stories that need to be heard. I definitely will recommend this place and festival with others! Thank you all to the team, the viewers, and the community! My percussionist, Neel and I had a tremendous experience and very much wish to return again soon. Please check out what this space does!

Live music, community theater, art performances, circus shows big and small, kid's programs and summer classes and a few things I'm sure I'm leaving out. Our most recent visit was for the theater costume clearance sale, it opened at 10 this past Saturday morning - we arrived at around 11:30 and it was over! It is what it is! This also shows how popular this local venue is. This is a great playhouse that supports and helps a multitude of organizations within the local community. Because of the unique nature of this facility it runs hours accord to the event(s) it is hosting at that time. You may want to verify with the event your going for what times, dates, etc. in advance if you're driving in from out of the area. That being said, a great community asset and another cool place to see awesome live music in town. A solid 5 star venue. 00307

Something that grossed me out where the carpets. Goodness looks like dirt caked into the carpet. We need rug Dr in the house ASAP!!! Or at least a whole carpet removal! Used the restrooms, seemed fairly clean with the exception of a pooped toilet. I made sure to use the restroom in the fartest entrance. Prior to my visit, I had gone to see Zootopia and cannot believe how people on five dollar Tuesday treat the environment where they have wrappers on the floor and it is just pandemonium. Overall, I was rated as a B minus experience, but I really enjoyed the movie Hail Mary. Sadly, on a Tuesday the bigger theaters for $5 Dollar Tuesdays were trashed. Don't people know how to aim at the trash or know to treat other places better or similar to their own homes?

The screens and seats are acceptable. Some screens are better than others. The biggest problem I have found is the lack of sound proofing. You can often hear the movie next door if it is a loud action or horror film. Also, this theater has the worst woman's bathroom. It's dirty and most of the stalls don't work. You would be lucky to find a door that locks or in some cases, closes at all. Popcorn is good when it's fresh tho.
