Our community will always miss the very special place that was the Pierson Theatre / Theatre…read morePalisades. For decades, it wasn't just a building, but a home where neighbors came together to share stories, laughter, and music. Generations of families made memories there--whether performing on stage, volunteering behind the scenes, or simply enjoying an evening out with friends. When the January fire took it from us, it felt like losing a member of the family. Yet, the love and spirit it nurtured in Pacific Palisades will carry on, reminding us that while the theatre may be gone, the community it created lives on in all of us

We have been to the Santa Monica Playhouse now at least 20 times. We take our special needs…read moregrandson and he loves it. He is 19 now and loves the kid's play as much as he did when he was 3. The Playhouse is located in a great area in Santa Monica and there are a lot of eateries and places to walk. The 3rfd St. Promenade is just a block away. Parking is easy in the public parking lot right across the street, it is for a small fee. All of the kid's plays are great and our grandson has not missed one yet. They also do holiday themed plays. The prices are great, this is one of the last places you can take a kid and not spend more than 18$ a ticket and often less. The staff is the nicest. It is not for profit and the entire staff and actors work for free. They also have Birthday parties. The place is small and adorable you will love it.

We had the best experience with Sophie dance. My daughter loves to dance and loves to tumble…read morearound. She has always been active from a young age. We were enrolled at the school of dance and music before the pandemic but then all classes were being taught online during the pandemic. Unfortunately that didn't work out for us. We saw Sophie dance's old location while we were driving down Wilshire and it was history from there. My daughter tried out for their team and was very excited to join their family. She said she didn't feel the time while she was there. She actually begged to stay longer. Sophie dance isn't just a dance studio but they are a family. The staff there is very personable. They are not afraid to tell you the truth. Their teams are amazing. My daughter learned so much being part of their team. Unfortunately, this year they required more hours which we couldn't commit to but they will always be our first family. If your looking for something for your little dancer then I would definitely recommend this studio.

The teachers are great and make the classes fun and age appropriate. Her favorite part was participating in the recital but she likes all the in class performances as well.

Sign up early to get your desired time slot.

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....

Lovely venue but sometimes the artists or productions chosen to take the stage are disappointing…read more I've had the experience now twice of going to a show based on genre and marketing and having to sit through performances that feel like they were brought in to cater to a very specific, very small but obviously inner circle community. Choose wisely what you come for. If your intuition tells you this artist was maybe brought in simply on connections and what community they're a part of then listen to your gut. I say all of this because there are so many deserving and talented productions out there that deserve and would love the privilege of being paid to perform here but to see the opportunities squandered on the same old stories and inner circle artists is enough for me to think long and hard before buying tickets to this theatre again.

The owner is horrible and she did some psychological damages to my daughter…read more She made my daughter feel unwanted and she couldn't stop crying. I had to comfort her because she was really down, sad, and crying. The owner Stephanie literally blocked my daughter with her arm and told her that she cannot play anymore and that she had to leave. My daughter really loves Jaime's camp and Jamie the instructor. But the owner did not let my daughter play with her anymore. She said it's time for you to go! You need to leave now! Do you know what psychological damages that does to a child. And Her reasoning was: 1. because she has been in here too long and she is too young. (Yet my child is 2 years and 9 months and was approved to be there for the 3 - 6 year old camp by Jamie) the instructor) 2. Because she was too much and there are so many kids to take care of that she can't pay attention to one. If she complains about too many kids to take care of, then why even accept too many kids in the first place. The place is indoors and so small and Stephanie cannot handle stress. She literally breaks down like almost crying. I even was startled by her behavior I couldn't believe it. I was just stunned. If you are planning to leave your kid here just remember that they probably won't be watched.

She said so many wonderful things about my child being in the program then the conversation took a turn when she told me that in order for me to put my child into the Adderly that I myself would have to sign up for aerobic exercises where she, the Directo, works out. I played it off and we left but this was highly inappropriate and damaging. She would put a child's opportunity at risk due to a parent carrying extra weight shortly after an accident. I would not associate with this organization.
