This being their 55 season I scream Congratulations!!! The gentleman at the door was very friendly and gave a nice history of the the theaters previous locations and history. Also, that after the curtain closed there would be dinner served. Nice. The theater was intimate and each seat is a good seat! The characters performed well and I have the upmost respect for their performances, however, after being up for work since 5am and there not being any air circulating in the theater, I began to doze and there is NOTHING more disrespectful than a sleeping patron!!!! NOTHING! So I left at intermission and will return for future shows, rested and prepared. Thank you to ALL the cast members for their amazing performances and the welcoming staff at OnStageAtlanta!

The class was really full and it was hard to see what she was doing and it was very hard to follow. A few songs she would just walk off mid dance. I am a beginner level dancer so it could have been my lack of knowledge but it was very confusing and I left feeling like I didn't know any more about the dance than when I started. It's possible it was challenging because there were so many people there and that paid classes are much better since this was a free event.

I have been here for a number of classes and events and the issue I have has always been the same. PARKING!!! OMG!!!!! Parking at this studio is atrocious. They literally have 7 spots in the back of the building IF you can find it. Those spots are so tight that it also depends on the type of vehicle you drive....whether or not you will get a coveted spot. I adore this business, but PARKING......is horrible. If you come to an event after hours you will be able to park somewhere on the street for free; after 6 p.m. on weekdays. Other than that you may have to pay for parking and walk to the studio. Just prepare yourself and leave early enough to find a parking spot or take MARTA. You'll enjoy the classes you take here, you won't enjoy spending a lot of time looking for somewhere to park.

Check out the Emory arts calendar for a schedule of upcoming performances at http://arts.emory.edu/calendar/index.html. You can park for free in the Fishburne parking deck which is conveniently located right next to the Schwartz Center. Parking rates apply, Monday-Friday, 7am-5pm, but the deck is free otherwise. On October 20, 2017, I attended the world premiere of the short film "In Her Image" (2017), written and directed by Emory alumnus Nikoloz Kevkhishvili. What was unique about this premiere was it took place in the Schwartz Center's Emerson Concert Hall (seating capacity: 825) and the Emory Wind Ensemble played the musical soundtrack to the film live as we watched it on a projected screen above the stage. The score for the movie was composed by Emory's director of orchestral studies, Richard Prior. I've been to independent film festivals and independent movie screenings/premieres before and In Her Image (official website: https://www.inherimagefilm.com/ | IMDb link: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt7483328/) was better than I expected. If you're a fan of high quality, well-made, and well-acted short films, it's worth checking out. The premiere was preceded by three arrangements performed by the Emory Wind Ensemble and an additional arrangement after the premiere. They were: 1. Four Scottish Dances (1957) by Malcolm Arnold (1921-2006) 2. Aria Della Battaglia (1567) by Andrea Gabrieli (1510-1586) 3. Suite from Mass (1971) by Leonard Bernstein (1918-1990) - Film Premiere - 4. Zion (1994) by Dan Welcher (b. 1948) I was impressed with the quality of the performances. They were outstanding. They were conducted by Paul Bhasin who is Emory's director of wind studies. My favorite arrangement was the Suite from Mass which was written for the opening of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C. It sounded magical like a John Williams score from a Steven Spielberg movie. Five brass soloists from the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra joined the Emory Wind Ensemble for the suite. They were Stuart Stephenson (trumpet), Michael Tiscione (trumpet), Jaclyn Rainey (horn), Samuel Schlosser (trombone), and Michael Moore (tuba). The entire program, including the movie, lasted only about 1.5 hours. As for the Schwartz Center itself, it is very nice. It opened in February 2003. For comparison, the Ferst Center for the Arts at Georgia Tech opened in April 1992 with a 1,155-seat auditorium. The concert hall is two stories and features a 45-pipe organ. There were staff members on the first and second level concourses greeting attendees and handing out descriptive programs. Seating was general admission. The seats were comfortable and there was not a bad seat in the house. Every seat seemed to have good to great sight lines and viewing angles. The acoustics were terrific. Along with the concert hall, the Schwartz Center also has a dance studio, theater lab and observatory, rehearsal hall, and classrooms. Outside, there is a courtyard with beautiful tree lights. The Schwartz Center is located on the southern end of Emory's campus. It's just a stone's throw away from Emory Village which has several great dining options like Double Zero, Falafel King, Keba, Rise-n-Dine, and Wagaya.

I honestly love Eddie's addict and can't wait to find other reasons to visit…read more I came to Eddie's on a dreary and kind of cold night so the outside was not opened which I assumed was the reason way, but I have some friends who say it's pretty great space to relax, drink a beer, and watch the show. So the venue itself is uber small, which is amazing. It's a great place to see an act for super cheap and in an intimate setting. There is seating which is mostly first-come-first-available. There are some areas you can reserve, but I believe you need to reserve the entire table which is not ideal for me since I came solo. I sat at the bar which was perfect for me and a great vantage point from the stage. I ordered a small snack and a beer and really enjoyed the concert I was there for. I thought the acoustics were good, the food was perfectly fine bar food and the beer was perfectly crisp. This is honestly a place I should be going more to.

4 star venue, 2 star experience…read more I love the idea of "songwriters playing original music in an intimate setting." No free parking whether you park on the street, in a lot or $6 for the DeKalb deck a few blocks (weekends included). Phone # is required for entry, not the Dice app which sold my tickets. Friendly staff, good acoustics and if you're early enough, you can sit on bleachers. They aren't comfy but the sight lines are excellent and it beats standing. The tiny tables didn't appear to be worth the extra $$ as they aren't elevated and you have to buy 4 seats. There's only enough room on the stage for the artist and their guitar. Son Little sounded great as always. Despite it being "a listening room" he encouraged the audience to sing and they did - loudly and off key. What ruined it for me is how short the set was. It's not the artists fault, but if they are unlucky enough to be the 7pm show, the next act is waiting to perform. Son's set may have been 45 minutes excluding the opener but he probably gave Candi Jenkins more time than she needed. I was disappointed after braving the cold, arriving early & paying $38 plus parking.. I know Eddie's Attic has history and it beats City Winery's mandatory minimum spend. But some artists are just better with a band and Son Little is one of them. Unless the late show last longer, I prefer standing room only dive bars like the Earl or Smith's Olde Bar for a real, 2 hours+ live show experience (band included). Buckhead Theater or Center Stage if I want to sit and be fancy. It's a no for me.
