I have always wanted to go check out a show here, so I'm grateful for the chance. Also, this was my first time seeing a ballet. The American Reportory Ballet is the group that put on the performance. The thing I loved about this theater is that it doesn't appear to be a bad seat in the house. I had a great view. Also, I loved that for this particular performance, they had characters from the show in the lobby that you could take pictures of or with. They also sold different souvenirs including actual nutcrackers, ornaments, and books. Another thing I noticed is that the staff are accommodating to people who have disabilities. I saw them remove a seat to make space for someone who uses a walker/wheelchair. I would definitely return to see another show!

This is a company that puts on a variety of puppet shows through out the year. We just saw "The…read moreWizard Of OZ," and my family had a great time. As soon as you enter the theatre a couple of the Marionette puppeteers greets the audience/kids with some puppets while everyone is finding their seats. The kids are encouraged to sit on the floor to watch the show on the puppet stage. The Wizard of OZ was great. It is not the complete story you would see as in the movies, as there is no visual effects and time constraints. It's a concise adaptation and everything is left to your imagination. It's definitely a great experience to go do with your kids. It's very affordable and your kids will have fun! The puppeteers are great as they are very friendly and interactive with the kids before and after the show. After the show, the kids can walk up to the small stage and touch the puppets and the puppeteers will answer questions and show how some of the puppets work. You can buy puppets there from finger puppets to the larger Marionette puppets. It's recommended you call to reserve tickets rather than just show up because it's a very small theatre. There is ample free street parking. They have shows in the 1st and 4th Sunday's of the month. Occasionally they will have weekday showings. They are great at responding to my emailed questions.

I saw The B-52s and DEVO last weekend at PNC Bank Arts Center. Because it's a bit far for us and a…read moredrive, we don't often go down to this venue for concerts, but being DEVO fans we really wanted to go see them. Our seats in the amphitheater were in section 403 row 3. My husband purchased the tickets. We were pretty dead center. The section isn't close to the stage, but there are two large screens that project live camera footage of the performers on stage. We parked in the non-premier parking lots (no extra charge) where it's about a 12 minute walk to the PNC Banks Arts Center itself. We were fine with the distance. All the vendors from food and drink areas to the merch stations were all friendly and kept it moving. Crowd control was fine overall, but there was some confusion about the lines entering the venue. It wasn't clear right away that there was a non-bag entry line and a bag entry line. A few people were walking to the front to get the the non-bag entry line, and I swear it got a little tense when people who had been waiting started shouting. A staffer in a yellow vest eventually cleared it up, but perhaps more signage would help diffuse any situations like that lol. It was a great concert and fun time at PNC Bank Arts Center!

PNC Bank Arts Center has been one of my most-visited concert venues over the last few years. I…read morewould like to praise some of the improvements they have made! First off, parking here isn't too bad. I do feel as though the paid parking is pretty expensive, but it's fairly close to the venue. They could make things clearer getting into parking, but besides that it's not too difficult to navigate. At the end of the night, getting out of the venue through the premium parking is fairly easy. After that, the security process is also relatively easy. The security here has been super friendly and quick. I did find it somewhat annoying that on a particular night, they were not clear with directions until the last minute, but besides that I entered security relatively fast. When it comes to navigating to our seats, I have never had an issue. The staff are pretty helpful, and I've never had a bad view from seats as close as the 100s sections to as far as the decks. Food and drink here has become surprisingly good, although it's VERY expensive. I always get the nachos, which are surprisingly tasty and have a nice variety of ingredients. Even the chicken tenders are pretty tasty. The $2 hot dog is a simple, cheap bite that I often can't pass up on. They also carry some unique and yummy pre-packaged food, like the CVT soft-serve ice creams. Lines for food usually move pretty quickly and never get too long! Additionally, the bathrooms are surprisingly clean and there are a ton of stalls. I never have to wait, even during busy times, just because they have SO many stalls and clear vacant/occupied signs. Overall, this venue looks great and has had some excellent improvements in the last few years. While things can be very pricey, I feel like this venue has a lot of excellent features that I have to praise.
