Went to see PRIDE & PREJUDICE* (*sort of) on Saturday, June…read more15th. It was delightful. The actors were so versatile, playing several roles each, even switching genders with limited costume changes. I was very impressed. The venue itself is quite intimate. You really can't get a bad seat. However, as is often the case in small theatres, there was a rush for the small toilets at the intermission. I doubt that everyone made it through the lines. The bar area was nice but small. It appeared that some people made arrangements to have drinks waiting for them at the tables during intermission but there was no signage saying this was an option. Still I would recommend visiting if you get a chance.

I really LOVE this theater, as it is old with a tone of history, however it also has the elegant…read moreand majestic feeling to it when looking from the outside and the inside. One needs to take some time to look UP when inside each of the areas, you will see things you did not expect to see, a very pleasant addition to your experience here. The acoustics are not as good as the new modern theaters, but certainly they are nothing to complain about, but there is a noticeable difference.

Dreamy, incredible and full of awe!…read more This gorgeous opera house is everything. We came here for Simon Boccanegra by Giuseppe Verdi. Disclaimer: I'm not heavy into opera or know a whole lot about them. However, this place was a WOW moment. Being in Vienna, the most incredible, historical, full of life, music and character, city in the world - a visit to the Opera House was needed. We are so glad we did! They have all kind of seat selections, balcony, floor and even standing for a more budget friendly approach. Our little balcony section was awesome though it had a heavily blocked view we were able to hear everything so clearly plus we had the little screens where you can follow along with the vocals. It was an unforgettable experience and so worth it if you're in Vienna visiting. You can also book tours and learn all about the history of the opera house which I think would be fascinating to learn.

If you're in Vienna, you definitely have to visit the State Opera House! I've been to opera houses…read morein the U.S., but most of them are relatively new compared to this one. The level of detail here is incredible - every corner feels like a work of art, from the ornate ceilings to the grand staircases. The performance was equally stunning. The orchestra and opera singers were on another level - so powerful and moving that even though I'm not usually into classical music, I loved every minute of it. This was truly an unforgettable experience and one of those bucket-list items you absolutely have to check off when visiting Vienna.

One of my favorite bars in Vienna!…read more Great staff! Awesome great for soccer games. Very convenient using the train

Supposedly one of the best places in Vienna to go for alternative/rock music but doesn't really…read morelive up to the hype. Its a pretty ok place to go but is a little smallish for so many hipster/rocker/alternies. The music was okish and I guess it would be much better with a live band. The barmaid at the entrance bar is clearly in the wrong job as she was unfriendly, grumpy and rude and the barmaid at the back bar was a little loony. She had the prices of the most popular drinks written on her hands and arms and would flash the prices whenever you ordered. There is a non smoking area towards the back by the dance floor but I honestly didn't notice we were in it as the whole place was fairly smoke free. (unlike what some of the other reviewers say.) Overall its not the worst place to go but not the best either...

The Performeum in Vienna is a spacious and cool new visual and performing arts venue in Favoriten…read more It's only a short walk from the Hauptbahnhof so it is well-served by public transit. The Performeum is found in an old factory building that is almost like a campus as there are a lot of people just hanging outside on the grassy areas near the main entrance. During the Wiener Festwochen (Vienna Festival) it has several exhibitions and performances going on. Some are ticketed and some are free but all are unique. Of course you can purchase food and drinks here as well. Check out this cool new center for the arts!
