    Amazing! The play we watched was very good! "Murder for Two" at first I was wondering how they could make a play with only two people, but it was fantastic, hilarious, and engaging. The play house was also set up very nice, the seats were comfortable and slightly far apart because of Covid. And getting the tickets was very easy and the people ushering us in were very nice. Highly recommend coming here to watch a play!

    I don't usually write reviews on non-food establishments, but had to give a shoutout to this little playhouse in Ivoryton! Very nice venue small, and great ambiance! We saw THE BELLS OF DUBLIN PART II: THE CAROL OF THE BELLS. Very funny and got all of us in the Christmas spirit!

    We did not see a show. We were there for the small museum. A $10 donation is suggested. It's not a…read morebig exhibit but it's interesting for any fan of the great Kate. The town is very proud of their native star. You can self guide or have a docent tour. They have a small gift shop. I recommend stopping by if you're in the area.

    Our first visit to The Kate was a delightful experience. We are planning to return in a few weeks,…read moreand we urge others to take look for themselves. We went to see Noel Paul Stookey, the surviving member of Peter, Paul and Mary, and his 90-minute concert was a great joy with new songs and of course some of the PPM classics ("If I Had a Hammer" and "Puff, the Magic Dragon," for instance). His standing ovation was richly deserved. We'll be eagerly heading back to see several more performances in the theater later this year. The theater is officially the Katherine Hepburn Cultural Center honoring the award-winning actress who lived close by before her death in 2003. There is a small museum on the ground floor that is a lovely tribute to her. It shows off some of her costumes, artifacts from her long Hollywood career, letters, etc. There's also a small gift shop and a bar nearby where beverages alcoholic and non may be purchased (and taken upstairs to the theater). The theater is reached by stairs or an elevator and seats close to 300 people with remarkably good sightlines from every seat that we could see. There's a friendly staff to guide the way, and everything about the concert-going experience for us was first class. The front of the theater is attractive and very imposing with steep steps. Happily that isn't how you have to get it. Instead, walk around to the side and enter there close to the box office and the museum. There's lots of parking on the street and in lot off the street. It's all free. Speaking of money, we found the ticket prices here to be quite reasonable. Our tickets were $59, and that's not too far off from other performances we checked. It seems to us a good value. And Old Saybrook is an attractive area; the broad, tree-lined Main Street has lots of restaurants and shops for pre- or post-concert enjoyment.
