It doesn't matter if you sit in the front or way in the back. The seats are comfortable and the theater seats a couple hundred.

I went here for the first time tonight. An intimate venue with fantastic acoustics, there are only…read moreabout ten seats in the 500 seat theater that have an obstructive view. The seats (although I didn't sit down) are super comfortable. The stage is a nice size, in no way close to an amphitheater stage but about double the size of a venue like Spaceland. The lobby upstairs is sizable and inviting with views of the ocean. I was lucky enough to volunteer for the Moby (yes, THAT Moby) concert and was able to go all over. The Performing Arts Center is also a recording studio. Apparently, artists with large posses will rent out the entire center. There is a nice backstage area with a small changing room, a kitchen and a bigger backroom attached to the stage. There is also a large room to the left of the stage (where the after party was). The offices and banquet room, as well as the recording studio, are upstairs. It must still be fairly new as everything is in pristine condition. Even if you aren't fortunate enough to see a world-class-act here, it's still a great place for any event or soiree. And yes, I did get to say hello to Moby. He is one nice guy.

The acoustics were great, carrying a very warm feel from the sounds on stage. Parking is most definitely NOT a problem, the staff is kind, helpful, and numerous. During an intermission, you will likely find that the line to the small bar is incredibly long. You may want to consider "pre-gaming" in the parking lot if you hate lines.

I got a glass of Cabernet. The bar is up front right when you walk in, great service and everyone working is really nice. Inside has plenty of seating in the garden, large tables and picnic tables around. You can also bring in your own food for your own picnic experience.

We didn't know what to get so we got two flights. The wine was good. I enjoyed my whites and he enjoyed his reds. I don't have notes on the wines but I do have on the beer I tried. Beer I tried: El Rey: Sharp bite hits your throat. Pliny the Elder: tastes off Fuckified: Funky. Tastes a little off Oktoberfest: Tastes like a regular Oktoberfest I give my lower rating because I don't think the beer lines were cleaned. I tried Pliny the Elder before and it didn't taste as it normally does. So not sure if it was an older batch or the lines were not cleaned. Otherwise, the area is really nice. They were doing a photo shoot for the vineyard so we watched lol

The food (we each ordered a steak) was good but a little pricey and just needed salt, the staff was helpful and friendly, and contrary to previous reviews, the ladies room was well-supplied and clean. The one negative is the table seating. It's too crowded. It is very difficult to get out of your seat - it's a struggle to pass through your row. The music before the shows and afterwards is too loud and make it difficult to have conversations. We would go back to The Canyon - but this time we would sit in the General Admissions seating.

Waiting 1 1/2 hours for food to be delivered to the table was terrible. Perhaps Canyon should do pre-order meals in the future for better service. I know we don't come here for the food or the service. But we are made to purchase a meal, so it should at least arrive at the tables in less than an hour. We arrived 2 hours before the show and ate during the opening band. But let's face it Canyon Club gets amazing band and has incredible sound. We'll always be back for more. There's just room for improvement with the meal service. I saw quite a few people get up to complain food delivery was too long. Some were eating at 10pm. The band started at 8.

The Hillcrest Center is part of the Park Districts facility, tucked up on the hill. I had never been there before, and there is construction, and other challenges to getting to the facility, such as the entrance is on a side street, not on Hillcrest itself. But you will be glad you make the trip. Classes there are put on by the Conejo Recreation and Park District, and include classes for young musicians, and the opportunity to also review an art exhibit on premises.

Sam Herbert as Evan, Carly Shukiar as Patrice and Antonia Vivino as Lucy had exceptional voices and terrific stage presence. Yet, along with these key roles, every single cast member could sing, dance, emote, act, and wow the audience with their talent. What my boyfriend and I continue to say to one another is, "Wow,,, the!se are only kids,,,, young people,,,what will they be like as adults? They can't get much better than this?" If you want an evening of high energy, talent, joy, tears and top-notch entertainment, THIS IS THE SHOW TO GO TO!

Admission is $20 for a family of up to five, and the shows are designed for kids ages 0 to 8. They're fun, interactive, and super engaging, with the performers involving the children throughout the performance. It's such a lovely way to introduce the little ones to live Shakespeare theater in a playful, welcoming setting.

I must say, the theatre we were in to see the show was veryyyyy comfortable. The seats are spacious and soft and comfy to sit in. The theatre was smaller than I expected, but still fit so many people. Lighting and sound are great. Bar service is easy too, there were 3 different bars to choose from so we were able to head to the ones with the shortest lines. Drinks are a bit pricey though. Wonderful show, so much fun!!!! For Nurse John No photography until the end of the show when they announce that you can take a few pics.

There's no free street parking nearby, so you'll most likely have to pay $16 to park in the lot there. You're not allowed to bring in food or drinks because they sell those items inside, and they also probably don't want you bringing in anything that isn't permitted. They had plenty of staff working the event, from security guards to ushers, helping people find their seats. As for the ambience, the place was well-decorated throughout the inside it was actually really nice. I would definitely recommend it if there's a show you want to see and it's being held at the Civic Arts Plaza. Don't hesitate to buy those tickets just be aware that you'll probably have to pay for parking.

After driving past the world renowned Getty Villa so many times on the 405 Freeway I finally made it to this absolutely stunning gem.

This replica of a First Century Roman Country house that was buried under Mt Vesuvius also had a coincidental close call with the recent fires In the area and came back stronger. Behold the lovely Roman style gardens that feature plants and herbs from the Mediterranean; the mosaic floors and the classical fountains in this calm and serene environment. There are over 1400 spectacular pieces of art( pottery, jewelry, statues and sculptures) plus an outdoor theater for special events and plays. Please do set aside 2 and a 1/2 to 3 hours to truly enjoy the entire experience. You also have to just sit in the gardens and take in the fresh air and the views. Goose bumps and conversations for days. Online timed reservations that are gratis. Parking is $25 and drops $10 after 3 pm.( you have to wrap things up by 4:30 pm). Closed on Tuesdays. There is a nice cafe on the villa campus. There is something for every age group. This truly was a WOW experience.

Built to be a 1:1 replica of a destroyed villa from Mt. Vesuvius at Herculaneum, Mr. Getty really did his thing with this one!! I personally find the architecture of this museum to be its best part because it feels like you've been transported back into Ancient Rome before the eruption. The museum itself contains antiquities from Ancient Greece, Rome, and other societies both pre-dating the two civilizations from the same region as well as those that existed at the same time in different regions (Egypt) in an effort to put antiquity in context. Parking here is $25 and the gift shop always contains some fun gems.

When you come around the corner and get that initial glance of the theater your heart skips a beat at its allure. It's an (all volunteer) community theater.

Just passed was To Kill A Mockingbird and Sweeney Todd. Currently showing is Disney's original movie adapted for the stage, High School Musical. Coming up is Avenue Q, Proof, Much Ado About Murder, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Pippin and more. Check their website for dates and times. There isn't a bad seat in the house. It seats 185. If you have yet to see a production at this endearing, little theater, I urge you to find a show you'd like to see and not delay any longer. Buy tickets and go!
