The theater is located near the valporaiso town center so we had plenty of things to do before the show. We went to a beautiful bar, walked around a book store, and even found a mushroom in a Garden. The show. Absolutely spectacular. Shakespeare in Love is one of my favorite movies so to get to see it performed live...I was spellbound. I cried several times. The acting was phenomenal. I was whisked away to a land of fantasy and love. Thank you endlessly for this experience. I already know I'm going to want to be back all the time. See all the shows. 10000/10000 A+++

It was cute and interesting at best. I would have liked for the people to had been a bit more.... dressed. It was like everyone had gotten off from work, with a come as you are type thing. Maybe I am a bit bourgeoisie. I am not sure which one is more accurate. Maybe a bit of both. It was clean and comfortable for the most part. I sat closer to the left side of the stage. So I was a bit cool from the doors opening and closing. I'm glad I was well dressed. I would say I felt completely out of place with heels and a pantsuit. Full makeup and hair was definitely overkill. Thank goodness we got a good parking space right out front. Curbside. I think I was a little worried during the intermission hearing someone outside in a drag car, burning tires with a little high pitched foreign car close on its tail. Maybe I should have walked outside. Who knows.... maybe I would have gotten a 2 for 1 show. I'm sure it would have been worth the $10 cover per person. Anyway. It wasn't bad... I laughed out loud a couple times and then a few times it was also crickets. I really think it's based on relatability. But, I would recommend you coming to check it out for yourselves:)

At intermission everyone has a drink and snacks and mingles. You can meet the preformers and owners/ directors after the preformance and find out some fun behind the scene stuff. It was a really wonderful theater experience everyone should check out.

Canterbury, in my opinion, is on par with theaters such as Chelsea, Michigan's Purple Rose Theater. Tonight's show, "Dames at Sea", was a funny, enjoyable, and just loads of fun for the whole family. I'd you're ever in the area, give the Canterbury Theater is the place to visit.

This was our first time to the county fair and boy was it rainy. We still wanted to go and see all…read morethe fun festivities and made the most of it. We started by going into the fair ground building where there were all the submissions for the fair, it's so amazing to see how creative folks are. We also got to watch a k9 demonstration and learned more about the program and how the pups are trained. Then we shopped around to support some of the local vendors and got our fair merch before heading outside. Once we headed it we saw the pig races where one round all the piggies needed to go number 2 during the race which actually made for a funny time haha. we then visited all the farm animals, and saw where the auctions take place. Then of course we had to try some of the fun fair food. This time we got the sirloin tips with potatoes and mushroom, kinda crazy for some fair food, but it was actually quite delicious! From there we got some deep fried Oreos which is always a great guilty pleasure. Couldn't be a full experience without washing it down with a slushie and fresh squeeze lemonade. We ended with a bucket of cheese fries which seemed to be never ending. The fair itself does have entry tickets costs & if you wanted prime parking for easy in and out that also cost an additional cost. Also keep in mind that fair games and rides are not included and the tickets only include the entry to the fair. Overall, we were shocked at some of the prices of fair food but overall had a great experience. As we were leaving the concerts and monster truck shows were started. You do need to pay for the monster truck show and buy tickets in advance if you were interested in that.

I have to admit, the place is waaaaay bigger on the inside than expected. There's a large u-shaped bar with nice lighting, some small high-top tables and chairs, a stage toward the back for the live jazz and blues bands, and even a lounge area with a fireplace and cozy chairs & end tables. Cute and trendy, a nice place for a date. The servers are prompt and friendly. But we ordered Stoli and sodas and pretty much got huge glasses of just vodka on the rocks. I'm not convinced the bartenders really know how to mix a drink, but I'll try a different cocktail next time (although it's kinda hard to mess up a Stoli and soda, right?). The flyer for Dirtty's says in big, bold letters "Adults 40 and Up" which could be just the kind of vibe your looking for, or maybe not your thing at all. Either way, they're very up front about it. My friend happens to be 30 and joked the whole night about being upset that she wasn't carded. C'est la vie. Currently they are open Thursday through Sunday and charge a reasonable $5 cover. Our drinks were $7 each, which is also reasonable considering it was a giant glass of vodka. All in all, we enjoyed our time at Dirtty's and will probably be back. Since they just recently opened, I will forgive the mediocre drink and hope for the best next time. It really is a cute place to enjoy a cocktail with friends and hear some live music by the fire.

Second time I tried to visit was on 2017 New Years Eve. My husband and I pulled in parking lot about 8:30ish and you could hear the music playing from outside but again when we got to door it was locked and we tried knocking but no one ever came to door. The Windows are made of glassblock so that wasn't helpful when trying to knock. I've tried to contact by Facebook, email and phone and have failed to get through. Really disappointed as I would love to see what this place has to offer. However, a business that has wrong contact information on their site and no recent updates on their webpage makes you wonder about the establishment.
