We have been going to the Christmas Show put on put the extremely talented Haugh Performing Artists…read morefor many years now. My brother-in-law buys these tickets A YEAR IN ADVANCE. He is a little obsessed with Christmas and the Citrus College Theater but why not?? The theater is beautiful and comfortable, complete with a symphony pit that rises up and down. It is a beautifully modern building with its entrance flanked by a couple vertical mosaic tile "pictures" of trees, one of which is my cell screen saver I liked it so much. See picture. The production is about 2 hours plus about a 15 minute intermission, not too long, not too short. And the intermission breaks the show into two parts, the choir and bells performance of the Citrus Singers first followed by the year's Christmas play complete with appearances by Santa and Mrs. Claus. I'm a 52 year old man and I thought I'd never say this but the choir and bells performances are wonderful. Maybe I'm getting old! No, seriously, they performers are fantastic and I absolutely love how the director and his assistant (?) vary the songs ever year with new and creative arrangements. They even did a mashup kind of thing with overplaying verses of two classic Christmas songs. It is truly amazing how the performers remember all the nuances and keep up with zero .mistakes year after year. My absolute favorite part of the first part of the show is when the director adds some comedy into the mix and has the new performers overemphasize their lack of experience and how the senior performers are rather blasé about giving yet another performance year after year. Come on, that's funny! Oh, and how one performer sits and waits to play her one bell note. Okay, it's cute. I also like how they've added some very creative percussionists and dancers at the end of the first half, too. This year's play is called "Christmas is..." and as I type, you've got 3 days left to see it! It is a very cute and creative play involving performers playing various candy bars you know and love as the plot thickens in the Land of Candy. I will leave it at that so as not to give too much away. Again, the length of each performance is perfect because I tend to get antsy. My kids (13 & 16) also loved it and look forward to the play every year. Tickets range from a very reasonable $17-$35 and I think you'd have a good seat anywhere although my BIL always chooses the front or 2nd rows. We also went to see a Rock Band do cover songs back in February this year and it was also great and you can see that my son absolutely loved every second of it. HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND for some near professional quality theater.

We had front row and everything about the evening was perfect. The venue is located on the campus of Citrus College (Glendora). Pretty typical of a venue...clean, spacious, welcoming staff and I saw that there is very generous legroom between each row so you're not packed in like sardines. Each row seemed a bit stacked so sightlines are also good. I would say it holds 1000+ patrons. Tip: free parking if your show is an official part of their calendar! It seems that they do have some well-known performers from time- to-time. I would definitely return to this lovely local venue!

2026 Season - April 4, 2026 - May 17, 2026…read more This visit applies strictly to the very last day of the season - May 17, 2026 As a first-timer to any Renaissance Pleasure Faire, there was a lot of anticipation on my part, having seen numerous videos on social media & YouTube. As always, I think the best policy is always to curb any & all expectations. Parking - Perhaps my biggest criticism of my entire experience. This is a rather specific situation that pertains strictky to ADA Handicap Parking. There is a specific lot that is designated for handicap parking - Lot 3 of the Santa Fe Dam Recreational Area (where the Ren Faire takes place). However, Lot 3 is situated farther than most parking = you have to walk much farther away than most of the other guests. It's ironic in that ADA Handicap Parking should allow you to be closer to the event's entrance. Perhaps the only advantage to parking in this distant lot is that your car will not be caught in the middle of the chaos of everyone else trying to leave. It very evident that this was an oversight when faire organizers made decision to have the event take place at Santa Fe Dam Recreational Area. If there's a way to modify this for future seasons, this would be the biggest improvement that they could make. FOOD Tri-Tip Sandwich ($18) - 6.0/ 10 It's to be expected, but you're definitely going to be paying for more than what you receive - inflation, labor costs, etc. That said, it's fairly hard to mess-up tri-tip. It's not necessarily dry, but the drizzle of bbq sauce helps. Frankly, I wished I asked for more bbq sauce (on the side). The tri tip is served in a roll that's slightly wider than a hot dog bun. It wasn't anything to "write home about", but it's seemed like a better option than most. 1 sandwich is only substantial enough to be a snack. Granted, I walked a good 10 minutes (to the jousting arena) before enjoying my sandwich, I think it would had been helpful if it was served much warmer. French Fries - 6.0 / 10 It's french fries. I will say that the portion is very generous. There was more than enough for me & my friend, so I'd even say it'd be enough fro 3-4 people, assuming it's being shared as a side. Again, maybe it's because I waited a good 10 minutes (buying a beer, walking over to the jousting arena) before enjoying the fries, but it might have been helpful if they could be served a bit warmer. They were still pretty crispy (more on the well-done side, which I prefer). Just some things to note (especially as a 1st timer): - Dress-Up. You're in the 16th Century / Elizabethan Era. So knights, nobleman, peasants, merchants, inn-keepers, plague doctors. But basically, in 2026 at least, anything that isn't "modern" (the past 100 years) is fair game. You can literally see almost anything & it wouldn't seem too out-of-pocket. Yeah, you'll get some strange looks & comments, but people get over it fairly quickly. Just dress-up. - Try to speak "in-character". Whatever it is that you decide to go as, try to "play the part". The volunteers / workers will respond to you accordingly & will "play along". Embrace it & have fun. - The focus of the faire is the shops. That's fine. Get your shopping-on & support these vendors. But there's also many games / activities (archery, axe throwing, dunk tank, how long you hang on a bar, etc.), manually-powered rides, performance shows, & craft activities (making chain mail, sewing, casting coins, & other cool stuff). Like anything else, you get what you put in. Bring your enthusiasm & pack your patience. Also knowing what I know now, I'm definitely going to focus more on my next visit with more investment in my costume (granted I came dressed as a humble peasant).

APU is my Alma Mater, and this is why I went to see pretty much every musical, play and performance…read morein my 5 years of student life there. APU has a pretty decent theater department, so it is usually a pleasurable and esthetic endevour to go see a production at the Warehouse Theater. Now, remember, all actors and most people involved in production are students, so there can be "oopsies", but you just have to give them grace. They have done so many things in the past, and I am always happy to go out and support them. After all, where in the SGV can you get theater for 10-15 bucks? There are usually about 5 productions during a school year, and you can see what is featured during the season here: http://www.apu.edu/cma/vpa/theaterfilmtv/theater/season/ Theater nights are Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 7:30 pm with occasional Sunday afternoon (2 pm) showings. You can buy tickets online, beforehand at the Felix Event Center, or on the night of the performance at the theater ticket office (though they can be sold out). The auditorium is pretty cozy, and they offer beverages and snacks before the show and during intermission. There is plenty of parking and friendly faces : ) Go check it out!

There are live actor(s) but no physical touch. Their performance is really impressive, which seems more common in LA. Coming from SF, any live actors are usually much more reserved, so this was a thrilling change of pace. Clues are given freely and appropriately, which is a skill in itself and keeps the experience moving from one satisfying puzzle conclusion to the next. Overall I highly recommend Hope's End, it is an enjoyable experience appropriate for our group of 7 people. As a huge escape room fan, I can confidently say this is in the top 10% of escape rooms I've done.

Overall, it's an uncomfortable environment where the owners are always yelling/arguing with each other right in front of the parents/kids. I also find it unacceptable the constant yelling that occurs between the owners towards the other teachers. My "1" star rating is based on the following: 1) Unprofessional behavior (yelling/arguing) between the owners. 2) Dirty Bathrooms with no paper towels. Cloth towels are provided, but the same towel is used daily by everyone. Surfaces are never disinfected such as benches, doorknobs, and handrails. 3) Chaos in every recital. Constant changes are rarely communicated. 4) Love the recital but tired of seeing the owner (Geoff) in every other number. I come to see the kids perform, not a 60-year-old man performing with teenage girls. 5) Covid-19 Epidemic: As all the schools, universities, gyms, bars, movie theaters and restaurants closed, owners choose to keep dance studio open putting our kid's safety at risk. When the city placed restrictions, the owner stated they were staying open and simply setting their own guidelines (not adhering to the CDC guidelines) to keep students safe. When the entire state shuts down, how can Dancemaker be the only exception?
