Steven Tanger Center For The Performing Arts

The Steven Tanger Center opened in 2021. It was to open in March 2020, but the pandemic changed the…read moreplan. The outside of the building is made of limestone. The Performing Arts Center hosts many events, from the Greensboro Symphony Orchestra to touring Broadway shows, concerts, comedy shows and discussions. The Tanger Center has a parking lot available for performances, and there is street parking and a few nearby parking garages. With Greensboro taking down two garages, it might be a little more challenging to find a space. When you arrive, ticket scanning and a security check are first. I am glad they finally clarified the bag policy to just one rather than three different policies. Phillips Hall is impressive with its high ceilings (3 stories) and a large glass window. It is 8,000 square feet and has porcelain staircases on both sides and elevators in the center. The concessions are in front of the window and under the stairs, so it is a shame that the architectural view is blocked. There are high-top tables in the center for your food and beverages. But I do not remember seeing any seating with the tables. The women's restroom on the first floor is large, with many stalls, extending from one side of the theatre to the other. I like that you can also see whether they are occupied or vacant. Staff have been very pleasant and helpful, from finding where you need to be seated to the Prelude Dining before performances. Seating is on three levels; the orchestra and the Grand Tier can be entered from the main level. The Loge is the balcony on the third level, and elevators are available from the lobby. I've had tickets for the orchestra in various sections, the grand tier and the grand tier boxes and learned where I prefer. It is also very easy to leave after the performances with multiple exits. The Tanger Center is a great addition to Downtown Greensboro that knows how to handle large-scale events.

I have attended two shows at the Steven Tanger Center For The Performing Arts. Most recent was…read moreBlue Man Group. I find the employees are quiet customer friendly. Case in point at the Blue Man Group show - I was on the front row of the Grand Tier Center section. I climbed the steps (followed the signs) and showed her my ticket. She told me when the doors opened I could use that entrance, but I would have to go down all of the levels of that seating area. She suggested I use the Orchestra level entry, and then I would only have to go up the stairs once to my seat. I appreciated the advice. Audio and visual effects were top grade. Seating was comfortable, and interior had a modern yet elegant decor. Very pleasant experience.

A fun night out! A nice ballroom in the Marriott, a nice 4 course meal, and entertainment. The…read moresalmon was very good and cheesecake for our dessert was rich and tasty. The drinks were a little pricey, but overall a great evening. I wasn't sure how the theater was going to be put on, like a stage , but instead the actors just moved around the room and incorporated the guests into the show. It was fun and the guests were quite lively and got into it!

Had a fun date night at the Dinner Detective in Greensboro last week. We had gotten the tickets for…read moreChristmas and we're excited to check it out, having never done an experience like this. We checked in when we arrived, we're given a. Table assignment and brought to the dining room. There was a full service cash bar serving anything you could need and an appetizer buffet. We got some drinks, and snacks for the buffet (cheeses, veggies, cheesy tater tots fried onion pedals) sat at our table and mingled with the other seated at our table. Actors performed within the room as we ate our 4 courses, and it quickly became unclear who was part of the show and who was just dining. It seemed there were actors planted at the tables, or where there??? The whole thing was well scripted, funny and made for an enjoyable evening. The food was delicious, I'd compare it to a nice wedding meal. Pricing may be a bit much for some, but it makes for a fun evening. I don't want to say too much and spoil anything, but I will say it was fun!
