The people next to us sat down with far too much cologne on and unfortunately my eyes and throat started burning, so I asked the stage manager? usher? unsure to be reseated basically as the show was starting and they were very flexible about it, which I appreciated. Thank you for the accommodation! And patrons of the arts, please don't wear heavy scents in tight spaces--people like breathing!

Audio quality could've been better but isn't a deterrent. Even on a Saturday night, we were able to find free street parking a couple of blocks away.

The interiors and lobby areas were absolutely gorgeous, with ornate details and an elegant, old-world feel. It was lovely to take everything in before the show began. The performance was fantastic, and the acoustics were excellent. We were seated very high up, almost in the last row at the top. I was pleasantly surprised by the clear, unobstructed view and had no trouble seeing the performance. There were also some perks to being upstairs: the upper-level restroom and bar were less crowded, and the nearby stairs made getting out during intermission and after the show quick and easy. A tip: arrive early! While waiting outside for a friend, I noticed the security line getting longer closer to showtime. The stanchions ran along the sidewalk and extended into the street, so I imagine the wait could be substantial for more popular shows. Security itself went smoothly. If you have Paramount Club access, keep in mind that staff occasionally directed guests from the backed-up main line into the priority entrance, so that line could get busy too. A beautiful theatre and a wonderful first experience. I'll definitely check out another show this year!

The performances are good and typically a lot of younger actors get their start at places theaters like Taproot. It's not broadway but its quite affordable to get a seasons membership to see all the shows throughout the year. There's a concession stand with wine/beer and fantastic cookies. Parking is not ideal but pay parking is close and street parking exists if you spiral out from the theater.

We were able to find parking nearby and line up to get into the merch line. The staff here were all courteous and professional. I was worried about getting hungry but not only did they offer drinks but they offered food and light snacks which was nice. Obviously it costs a lot but most venues will upcharge. The spinach and artichoke dip was actually good and even made me eat the other veggies in there with it so I was good for the entirety of the concerts. I also got to try Tree Top cranberry juice which I wasn't even aware that was a thing! The show venue is enormous and the seats were comfortable. We were in a great spot where there was a bit of AC as I get hot easily. The lighting and sound was perfect. Definitely wouldn't mind coming back for future shows that I am interested in!

The interior and the lighting here stood out for me in particular. Attended a comedy show and I was upgraded to a seat near the front of the stage. My original seat was upstairs. From what I can see, it seemed like the view from up there was still pretty decent. The show itself was a bit meh, but I left impressed by the venue itself and would not hesitate booking a ticket (price withstanding) for a show here.

Accessibility is of top priority here too with specifically marked accessible seating, parking, and more. It also has its own aptly named light rail station "Symphony" and covered paid parking lot, making it easy to access for all.

I've come here several times now! I like this place…read more Note to people who are stuck in long bathroom lines: the one on the second floor is usually much, much emptier, so it's worth a check! I haven't really tried parking at the venue, instead opting to walk half a mile from the nearest Amazon garage (and since I was coming on weekends/ weekdays after hours, it's free!), but there is a paid garage that's pretty close by. Personally haven't really used the concessions stand (and find it expensive like most of these kinds of places), but I did notice they were kind of long :) They also sell merch! to support the Seattle Rep. I've sat in the far back corners (cheaper/est seats) and the show was still enjoyable! In case you wanted to visit but was worried about nosebleeds, the balcony seats really aren't bad at all. I watched The Play That Went Wrong and I have to admit that the balcony/far seats had a much better view of the whole stage and could capture more of the silly side stuff than when I watched it on the ground floor at a closer seat.

I enjoy the fact that you can seat yourself in the auditorium and they have a variety of snacks and drinks to choose from in the concession area of the lobby.

We were here on Tuesday night when they charge $5 per guest for nearly 2 hours of entertainment (depending on the line up of performers).

Each of the comedians performed like a pro. They don't serve food and drinks downstairs so if you need something, you need to bring it from the bar or restaurant upstairs.
