What a stunning theater! I enjoyed this establishment over the weekend for a concert experience,…read moreand was not disappointed one bit. There is spacious parking behind the building, which gave me great peace of mind. Getting into the building and through security was streamlined and easily manageable. The architecture and decor of the theater is so regal, I could not believe my eyes. My friend and I ordered drinks and popcorn and our bartender was very friendly and quick with service. Prices, of course, were on par with NYC theater prices (a drink costing about $25). We both loved the concert and would definitely come back here for another!

King's Theatre is absolutely beautiful. The architecture, décor, and overall atmosphere are…read morestunning. I've been twice...once in the orchestra and once in the mezzanine and there truly isn't a bad seat in the house. The seats are comfortable, spacious, and even have cup holders. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the bathrooms were sparkling clean. Since it's a historic theater, there are no elevators, so be prepared to take the stairs if you're sitting in the mezzanine. Also, the mezzanine has concession stands but no restrooms, so you'll need to go downstairs. Getting inside was a little hectic, but once everyone was seated, everything went smoothly. I recommend arriving early so you can explore the theater and take photos--there are so many beautiful spots. I couldn't take pictures during the show because the Jill Scott concert was acell phone-free experience. The only downside is that the concessions are pricey. My $22 drink from the bar was disappointing and definitely not worth the price. Overall, it's a gorgeous venue, and I'd absolutely come back.

Beware undergraduates bearing plays!…read more Brooklyn Center for the Performing Arts is part of Brooklyn College, and is located at the edge of its campus. Over the summer and sometimes even throughout school year, the venue hosts music and dance performances, some of which are very good. It also hosts high school graduations and, during the course of Brooklyn College's school year, showcases undergraduate and graduate theater department productions. Everything but the undergraduate productions takes place in the large and beautiful Gershwin Theater. It's built like a typical music theater, with three levels of seating and a big stage along the lines of Carnegie Hall. Acoustics of the place aren't as great as Carnegie Hall, but are very good nonetheless, and the prices are very comfortable. The entertainment is usually very good and unusual, with lots of ethnic selections and experimental productions. Graduate student productions are often surprisingly good, though you never know what you're going to get with those. The other part of the Center is called the New Workshop, and is used by theater department undergrads. I'm not even sure if a non-Brooklyn College student can get tickets to those - if not, then that's a blessing, because most undergrad productions are understandably uneven, with everyone from actors to lighting crew still learning the ropes.

But anywho, over the weekend I attended a concert held in the Whitman Building and it was almost amazing. Although it looks like a regular school building, the performances make up for what it lacks in looks. But I must add that whoever was in control of the lighting on saturday did a magnificent job. The auditorium was huge and seated atleast 300 people. The ushers were very nice and helpful. But they did look at me crazy when I asked if they had a bar. The woman said I hope you can enjoy the show without one...

I used to go to The Red Blazer on 3rd Avenue to listen to them back in the early '80s and loved them then. I moved away from NY and have often thought about this group. Never found anyone as good in LA, KC, or TX. While planning a visit to NY I was delighted to learn that they were still playing their music in a different club. I went last Monday. I can say, without hesitation, that they are not only better than ever (same brilliant leader, mostly new - all amazing- band members), they are the very best group I have ever heard (and I've been listening to this brand of jazz since I was a kid). Authentic arrangements impeccably performed. A great band, nice venue, reasonable cover and minimum. Go! Have fun. No one else that I know of, anywhere, comes close to their high standard of performance.
