It's easy to miss the old town historic section of Hastings, as most of fly through on the highway…read morewhich is lined with businesses many think is the downtown. If you turn a sharp right and a sharp right again while heading south on highway 61 there is a drop down and the vintage 19th century buildings with many active shops and surprises. Most of the old section ends at the train depot. This area could be improved and made into an attraction someday as it is just sitting there. There is a Riverwalk with an entertainment schedule and plenty of room to picnic or just play in the park along the river. Walking through town there is now only antique store a few restaurants and a coffee shop, vintage clothes and a bridal shop, and the usual insurance office further down. I found the old movie theater which appears to be in use as a community stage. There is a small popcorn shop hidden away. *Interesting the cities finest (yes police) past by me twice. Do they know right away if a stranger is in town? Just saying.

Disney, Broadway, Sussical, and Spamalot. The sound and orchestra are great. The building is nicely laid out. Plenty of bathroom stalls and intermission goes fairly smoothly. They have a handicapped ramp and seating also. All seats are good because the stage and seats aren't far apart. They also have a black box theater that I haven't been to yet. Huge parking lot. Woodbury is growing, so this is a great spot for entertainment.

Jeremy Bode's performance of Raskolnikov was spectacular! Mr. Bode was able to draw you into the mind of Raskolnikov, along with his pride, loneliness, and anguish. Great job, Mr. Bode! We were all affected by your performance. The theater has just the right size and seating to immerse the audience into the play. You can easily see the actors' facial expressions and the humanity of the characters they are portraying. This is my second year as a season ticket holder and CORE member. I can't wait to see the remaining plays for this season! Jose L.

The theater is located in downtown Saint Paul with lots of neighboring restaurants and bars if you want to pre or post show party. There is no designated parking area but there is paid street parking (free on Sundays and after 10pm) as well as plenty of paid parking lots and ramps nearby. There is a slightly raised platform with a railing that I always try to snag a spot at as it offers a great view (especially for us short people). Most of my pics are taken from that exact spot. The floor can get pretty cramped but most of the crowds I've encountered have been very friendly. The theater itself is old but beautiful. The upstairs area shows exposed beams and bricks which I think adds to the charm!

The restrooms were clean when I visited at the start of the evening. I'd come back for shows considering it's so small. The only complaint, exit was slow and crowded even though there were plenty of exit options but they were kept close, leaving one bottle-neck exit out the main doors.

It's amazing that kids are the performers - given the incredible feats of strength, discipline and flexibility. Tickets in advance are recommended. Over the 8 years, they've increased from $20 to $40. Tickets can be purchased online about a month in advance of the show. The big top is an amazing venue. Parking is a bit tricky so plan in advance. Extra bathrooms and porta potties are brought in for the events. Concessions and programs are available. The seats are bench with a cushioned pad. After a bit they are tough for the full performance. With intermission, it's a good three hour performance. We've always been blown away! Highly recommend and will continue to return.
