We watched the Nutcracker Ballet and it was delightful and quite child friendly both because the…read moremany children in the audience seemed to vocally enjoy the performance and also because many of the dancers were also children. Because of the curve of the theater, it is difficult to see the entire stage if you're seated on the sides, of course. But I don't think we missed much. The theater even had fake snow falling on patrons as we entered. Cool touch

Not a large venue, but a large enough venue. Came here for the Greatest Showman Singalong which…read morewas pretty epic. Loved hearing how the children in the audience knew the song lyrics verbatim and the energy in the room was exciting. Even mom, who has seen the movie but doesn't know the music, had a fun time riding that vibe. They also had two concession stands, both selling the same stuff, but for some reason people were in line at the one on the left when you enter the bulding instead of going to the one near the stairways. They have free coffee and sell wine, beer, and snacks. I tried the each cider in a traveler sippy cup that you can purchase for $6 which helped me to sneak it in to the theater, lol. The volunteers are all nice and really try to be helpful. It was rough finding parking because the Art Walk was happening at the same time, but we managed. Can we please have more sing alongs? I'll come for all of them.

It's great that there's a place like this in Olympia. The staff were friendly, the movie screen and…read moreacoustics fine. But. Oh. My. God. The seats!!!!!! I can't go back. The seats are all old, springs broken, the seat portions slope downward. We tried a few in our one trip--and more on the way out (with our backs sore). Almost left a great movie due to the pain of these awful seats. I hate to rag on an local establishment run by volunteers and a fil society. But I feel the need to warn people for the sake of their butts and backs. Someone seriously need to get a fund raiser going to fix the awful seating. At the very least, bring your own pillows.

I went here to see my friend compete in the Mrs. Washington pageant. It's a reasonably sized…read moreauditorium but a typical size for a small college. I did like that the seats were all at an angle where there was no one blocking your line of sight. We sat up in the higher seats toward the back so it was definitely no one blocking our vision. I will say that I was expecting more at the pageant. I don't know if it was due to the people who put on the pageant or if the performing arts center helped them put on the show, but it was very basic. Maybe the background and general set up was basic, as not to detract focus from the lovely ladies parading around the stage with the hopes of winning. I will say that everything looks new and clean and it doesn't give off that old high school auditorium feel. The rest of the center is very nice. The bathrooms are reasonable and there is some cool sculptures hanging overhead in the lobby. I still prefer the size of the auditorium and stage at other venues like the Washington Center for Performing Arts or the Pantages Theater, but this one works for this campus.

It WAS NOT scary there were CHILDREN IN LINE, three 8yr olds were behind us. The animatronic were giving discounted spirit Halloween. My partner had done a ruck HOURS before going (18miles with 25+ pounds on this chest under 4hrs) he was tired sore and his ankle was alittle sad but he was a trooper and stood in line for OVER AN HOUR no complaints. The haunted house makes you walk in a single file line. The walk ways are very narrow and they give you REUSED flimsy glasses to alter your vision. Going into the haunted house it's dark but the ground is FLAT, midway the ground goes to an incline and then declines and that happens over and over again then it suddenly SLANTS OVER AND OVER AGAIN that is the reason my husband limped out of the haunted house.
