The seating is perfect for even me. Good room for my knees not too feel cramped. The sound system is excellent and clear. It made perfect to hear each instrument. Excellent parking lot. Can come in the back and front to get in the venue. They sell snacks and beverages prior to the show in the lobby. Great date night, girls night, if looking for a comedy show, music concert, or play type event. Check the calendar and buy tickets on line or at the box office prior to the event.

New Jersey is so lucky to have this awesome theatre. They have comfortable seats, nice bathroom facilities, a variety of concessions available for purchase, and talented performers. The Papermill's restaurant just reopened after an extensive renovation and revamp, or there are several yummy restaurants a short walk away from the theater. I recently ate at the Italian restaurant Basilica in Millburn and highly recommend checking it out for dinner before or after your Papermill show.

4/16/26 Update: Came to the Papermill to see "1776"…read more Outside, The Papermill has several high top tables where you can enjoy a snack prior to the performance. Security- April 16, 2026 was an unusually hot sweltering day. Specifically, it was like 90°. There was an extremely long line entering the theatre. Understandably, everyone must go through security. There were a large number of elderly people. I think there needs to be a separate line for people who need assistance. A few of these people were let in ahead of some people, then it just stopped. MPAC (Morristown) has excellent security for people entering the theater. The Papermill should look at their protocol. The first half of "1776" was a little too drawn out and chaotic. Of course, it was politicians arguing. However, I think somehow more singing would've made it more enjoyable. All the actors did have the pipes for wonderful singing. Anyway, the second half of the show was much more enjoyable. The staging and costumes were great for that time period. I understand in July 2026, the Papermill Playhouse will be going under a full renovation. Looking forward to the upcoming season and new renovations.

I had to average it out to a 3 star rating based on my experience for a concert I was attending...Modern Talking 2024. The Good - I got 4th row seats from the stage and I loved how up close and personal it felt. The plush seats are comfortable with plenty of leg room. The air conditioning was set at the perfect temp. The acoustics came through. The entire theatre is extremely well maintained given how old it is. The Bad - Never have I ever encountered such rude concert goers before in all my years. Many of the people would stand in the aisles dancing/drinking, taking photos or videotaping. The security guards would constantly come and usher them back to their seats. This was done over again and again. I was beyond annoyed. Some were drunk AF and would even stumbled around. I had my defense mode on in case they land on me. The security crew had their work cut out for them. But towards the last 40 minutes of the show, they gave up. At this point, I couldn't see anything without tip-toeing. For all those 1-2 star reviews complaining about how rude the security crew were. You guys must be the ones occupying the aisles. I'm guessing this happens a lot at this theatre. For that reason, I won't be attending any more future shows. Note: even though there is only one restroom for women which is located on the 2nd floor, there are plenty of stalls.
