We were looking for something to do on a Sunday evening, the weather was perfect for outdoors, and this popped up. We decided to pack ourselves a picnic and head over, we figured if it was a dud, we would just leave early. But it was SO cool. Seeing a free show, in the middle of the park, with a cheese board in front of you, and a bottle of wine in your water bottle? This is the St. Louis I love. We will absolutely be back every year to support this. Maybe even a few times per season. It's such a unique, and fun experience.

I can't complain about much since this is a FREE event. When I was in high school in NYC, I always…read moredreamed of attending Shakespeare in the Park but never made it. I didn't know STL had their own at Shakespeare Glen in Forest Park! We watched the Tempest last night and the set and lightning design was fantastic! They have speakers set up so it wasn't difficult to hear. Get there early if you care about sitting up at the front, but honestly the views from the top of the hill were still great. Parking will be horrendous! Food was good, it was from Steve's Hot Dogs and the Fountain on Locust but so maaaanyy patrons brought in their own meals and bottles of wine (so cute) A teenage, abridged version of the Tempest was showing by the food stands before the show - very cute! I loved this and can't wait to see what's up next for their tour in August and September

I saw a concert here for the very first time last month, and it was everything that I…read moreexpected...which was great! Yes I was aware that this was on the campus of UMSL, and it would be somewhat tricky to find but everything worked out in the end. It's not so often they have mainstream artists perform there, but I got to see music legend Herb Alpert and his Tijuana Brass at the Touhill. The place seemed kind of dated, like stuck in the 1960s (which ironically fit the vibe) as in the design, the wooded walls and the old cushioned seats. But there was really nothing to complain about overall. I definitely can't complain about the free parking, which is rare! This is also not too far from a Metrolink station, but seriously who wants to ride the Metrolink?!

Besides the occasional questionable cough from an audience member, I was delighted that no one sang along to the songs or was talking.

This is such a cool, older building in stl that dates back to 1908. It was my first time here and…read moreit definitely had those authentic, historical vibes. It was drafty but cozy and intimate. We came for the Christmas Carol candle concert which was such a treat.There were so many candles and the quartet sounded amazing with the acoustics of the building. It was such a beautiful experience. Some of the chairs were definitely not in the greatest shape and felt a bit wobbly which I can imagine would cause a safety issue if used too much. Overall, I would definitely return, especially to a candlelight concert!

The Link is a performing arts auditorium that happens to host Fever's candlelight concert series. I…read morehave always thought about going to one of these events but haven't until recently. The concert that my husband and I attended was for the Lord of the Rings performed by the 314 string quartet. They were excellent! We had an amazing time and true to how they have been advertising these events, the stage is set up with numerous LED candles of varying heights and sizes to light the space while natural light are blocked, creating a calm and immersive environment where the main focus is the performance and the music. To be honest, I really loved the idea and they even will not allow people to take out their phones to record or take photos during the performance. They also ask that you not talk during the performance (because people do need a reminder). However, toward the end of it, they will let you have recordings or photos granted that you have your flash off. Of course, this is when some people will start getting rowdy and start to well... people. A prime example were these two individuals in front of our seats loudly "whispering" about not knowing how to zoom their phone camera and how their relative's child is perfect to play the cello while the performance was still in progress. The auditorium itself is an old building but seems to be in good shape with a few spots where I could tell they've been doing some maintenance on. As with any old structures, there will be visible signs of aging such as uneven floors and wall imperfections and this holds true but to me, it added to the general charm of the place. There are no assigned seats. You buy your ticket for a section and if you get there earlier than others you will have more seating options. The acoustic was great! I don't think it would be an issue no matter where you're seated. They do have some staff that will guide you to your general seating location or assist you with your needs. They have restrooms and sell some beverage to enjoy before and during the concert. They also have a small gratuity collection box for the musicians on your way out so don't forget to be geneous!

It was my first time there, which is embarrassing since I live in the neighborhood. The show was excellently cast and of professional quality. These actors ARE professionals and I was honored to be in the second row of this half-filled intimate space watching live theater at sign a high- caliber. My only regret was the actors didn't take more time to bow but in the end, it was a small audience and the applause didn't seem nearly enough for the level of the performance we had just seen. I really hope more young people discover this place as I was a good 20 years younger than the majority of the attendees.

I went here with my partner and a friend over the weekend and it was a blast! We went on a Sunday…read moreso there were a lot of kids there, but that's to be expected. It was $25.23 total for one ticket at the door, which is cheaper than buying online ahead of time ($20 ticket plus $8 fee plus tax). There was no line to get in which was surprising given we went at 11am on a weekend. The place was super cool! It reminded me a lot of Meow Wolf's Convergence Station in Denver with how crazy it was. There are more places for kids to climb around than adults, but we were still able to crawl through a lot of places. There was so much cool stuff to look at that there's no way you can do it all in one visit. We've already decided we want to come back to St. Louis just to go here again! I will say the attractions aren't terribly accessible to those with disabilities. There is a lot of climbing and not a lot of wheelchair accessibility. It's also loud and high-touch. There are plenty of bathrooms, and there is at least one water bottle fill station which I appreciated as a tourist. The gift shop is pricey but that's also to be expected. Parking in their lot is $15 plus tax (we paid $20 and got $2 back), other nearby lots are open but more expensive. If you're visiting St. Louis, you definitely need to go here! It truly is a blast for all ages and is the first true adult playground I've seen. It is so worth the price of admission!

Bring a head lamp and your own knee pads (wrist guards, butt pads, elbow pads would also help if you decide to go all out and parkour your way through this place), as well as some sturdy jeans.

They had a cute gift shop too for those of you who'd like to get a souvenir.
