Both of them so fantastic!!! Our play is part of the benefit series for their "save the main stage" campaign.

Very proud to be part of a little history on the theater world and glad its at the SM Playhouse.

The magician said he works in Disney cruises he was mostly keeping it PG. While exiting some of us were told if we wanted to see more magic to go another room. We of course were curious and went with . The room was much smaller. This time I was a bit closer to see the magic tricks that I gasp. The illusion on how we were being tricked was amusing. Not knowing what to expect my friend and I decided to stay for the evening event which was as a burlesque show. Adding the show was only 15 dollars . The ladies had an amazing performance along a live band which was quite entertaining. The hostess was extremely funny she was the best part of the burlesque show. Drinks were good only I was a little bit confused at first since the bartender showed me menu when I asked for the cocktails then when I asked for one she told me she wasn't making them but could put them in for me pointed at a guy next to her. I assumed she was putting them in since she said she could but no big deal we're waiting during intermission to add our drinks until the guy made them. One thing to add you can drink inside during both show. The difference was that during the burlesque performance there was someone inside ready to take drink orders and bring them to the seat . During the magic show you have to wait until intermission to get a drink .

Children's 8 yrs old Birthday Party Disaster. It's a shame…read moreI have to write this . We had an amazing time but ended very poorly. We planned a private event with a host of, use of a lounge for food and guests and a show . We arrived and had a wonderful time at the pre show gathering and during the show . . Unfortunately after the show while the kids were playing in the lounge area the owner started yelling and scaring children. At one point he decided to yell and scream at two mothers and a grandmother and that was enough. The owner was asked to stop and remove himself from the situation and asked to communicate through his staff . His aggressive attitude sealing certainly garnered a response from one of the fathers . The owner then decided to then end the function and ordered everyone to leave. To the owner. If you don't want children at your location then don't book children's gatherings or shows. It will never be acceptable to yell at anyone

Just wanted to write an update because I see that a lot of people reviewing here confuse BroadStage…read morewith SMC Theater. It is the same PHYSICAL venue, but not the same organization. So, some people who are reviewing the programming or staff are actually reviewing SMC, not BroadStage or vice versa. I have never attended an SMC performance so I can't speak to their programming or staffing, but BroadStage has very interesting programming & very kind staff. Since BroadStage programming is so eclectic, though, some of it just isn't of interest to me. Different strokes....

The Morgan-Wixson Theater is located in Santa Monica. Parking is on the street, but mind the signs…read more You can park without any problem right down the street at the Family Clinic for free anytime and it is not a long walk at all. This is a not for profit and it has professional actors, kids and armatures. It is small and there is not a bad seat in the house. Most of the staff are volunteers so be nice. You can order from their website. It has a great selection of plays, from kids plays (called the YES program) to musicals and some very serious plays. We have been so many times and have never seen a bad play and if you have a kid, it is a must you take them there. The prices are so fair and they a little snack bar inside. There is nothing not to like about this theater. It has nice places to eat nearby and it is a great area.

I love the Morgan Wixson theater so much! My favorite plays have to be: the Addams Family,…read moreFootloose, Alice in Wonderland, How I Became a Pirate, and especially Prom! What I love most about the theater is that most of the plays are all kids, so kids can audition. My family and I cry at all the plays because of the company and the TALENT.

Baron Brown Studio has profoundly changed the way I view and approach acting. Studying here for 2…read moreyears has built me a strong foundation of understanding and confidence that allows for consistency in creating art from all aspects of producing a project. Additionally the community of artists, from students and teachers I've come across made the journey so much fun even during challenging times. I am forever grateful to this studio for bringing me a new family and for being apart of this artistic legacy!

I've trained with this studio for many years, and it remains the most raw and rewarding experience…read moreI've had as an actor. The work here has grounded my craft, giving me the tools to deliver consistent, truthful performances with precision and depth. The level of live inner work and authenticity cultivated at this studio is truly unmatched in Los Angeles. While many studios focus on advancing career actors, Baron & Brown guides you from the fundamentals all the way through the most advanced levels of performance and production. I've taken the full program twice and revisited the six-week and first-year courses multiple times. Acting is a lifelong practice, and whenever I've found myself feeling lost or stagnant, this studio has always reconnected me to the core of my craft -- to truth, presence, and self. Special thanks to: Elaine, DW, staff, & Joanne

I am really rating the campus from an outside perspective as I'm not a student. I use the track…read morethat SMC has and honestly it is one of the best tracks in Santa Monica. It's usually clean and spacious that so many people can run around the track all at once. The community is also very respectful and the people that use SMC tracks are all very nice. Now that the are renovating the tracks, it is hard to find a track similar to what SMC provided. Still, the campus is a great place to run at even if there is no more track currently. I hear a lot of good things about the campus and everytime I visit, I think they either have built something new or renovated something !

A hidden gem. Let's jump right into this review…read more The Geffen Playhouse in Los Angeles is a renowned, non-profit theater known for intimate productions of classic and contemporary plays, new works, and educational programs. Two main spaces, the 500-seat Gil Cates Theater and the smaller Audrey Skirball-Kenis Theater. My son and I attended a play - Table 17 and sat in the balcony box of the Gil Cates Theater. Box seats $139pp Pros 1. Very nice venue. An intimate space with every seat being a good seat. Great acoustics also. 2. Bathrooms are clean and grounds are well-kept. 3. Small bar area that sells food items and drink, including alcohol. 4. Patio area and seating in the lobby if you arrive early. Doors usually open 1 hour before showtime. Theater doors open 30 minutes before curtain time. Cons 1. Parking can be a challenge but not impossible. Metered street parking. Use the text to pay function because you can add additional time from your phone and receive reminders via text when your time is about to expire. There are also paid parking lots within walking distance. Prices will vary. I was impressed with Geffen Playhouse and will definitely be back. BTW - Table 17 was an amazing play - funny, thought provoking, and an attention grabber.

Great refreshment choices. Parking can be tricky, you can park in the garage next door for pay, or street parking for pay (depending on the hours of the day & day of the week), or you can park in neighborhood street parking (free) couple blocks away. The venue is close by market with food vendors or nearby restaurants and museum. Really enjoy every time I'm here seeing a play.
