Talent + Seating +…read moreOriginality + Production + Environment + Talent in spades, it never ceases to amaze me how much talent is hidden in this Northern California gem. Seating is cozy, comfy, tiered, and has plenty of accessible seating for the other abled. They do so much with such a small area it's commendable. Originality, not only do they put on some of the best classics, masterfully converted to a smaller setting, but plenty of original ideas as well. Production is fantastic! Lighting, stage, set, even the canned music and audio are fantastic, I did experience some technical difficulties during one showing, but the actors and stagehands handled it gracefully. Environment, the atmosphere is professional yet casual enough that you can enjoy it without feeling you require a black tie. Perfect for dates, as even with the smaller tables in the middle section, they have "candlelight", the lounge is always a great place to be, plenty of snacks, even baked goods, and cocktails to die for. The staff are always pleasant, I couldn't be happier. Update: there was a bit of a fire and they're currently using the historic Cascade Theatre for shows for now. The seating there is a bit outdated but absolutely worth it to enjoy the finest the Axiom has to offer.

Such a wonderful theatre! I am quite surprised that the production and venue is so good. Fair…read morewarning, I am not super knowledgeable when it comes to theatrical productions but maybe my inexperience is a plus? What I do know is that Axiom is a community gem. The environment is intimate and comfortable with a nice space during intermission. Beer, wine, other drinks, and snacks are available. I loved having a little bistro table during the performance to enjoy my wine. I believe you can also rent the bar/dining room area for events. Last time I checked, I heard they also have connections with good caters. Kinda like a plug and play event space - awesome! I love seeing local talent in action!

Short Version Talent +…read moreSeating - Originality - Productions - Environment - Although they have some phenomenal actors, talent only goes so far. The seating is lacking, uncomfortable, and has no real accomodations for the handicapable. Their productions are often ripoff of old 80s films with unclever title and character name changes. Music is canned, audio is hit or miss, lighting leaves a lot to be desired, badly timed changes and intermissions, overall feels almost High School Drama Quality. Not worth admission fees. The environment... It smells reminiscent of old sweaty gym socks, the building design is confusing and inconvenient, the seating area looks almost like it was once a pool or gym or something, the stage is tiny, it feels as if everything about this place is a hand me down after thought that reaks of B.O. As a patron of the arts and retired performer/director, I love supporting local theatre, thankfully there are other options in this town. Sorry the review is negative, I hate writing bad reviews. Hopefully you can use this as constructive criticism and work on it. I always give multiple chances and hopefully I can edit this in the future as a 5 star.

Call me biased but I have helped out/volunteered with the Redding fire festival since I was 14…read moreyears old I now help run the festival and I cannot believe how much we have grown over the years. We now do our festival at Anderson Fairgrounds. We started off in Caldwell Park that should give you an idea on how much we have grown over the years. We try to make the festival, fun and enjoyable for all ages, we offer multiple different vendors to check out durning the day. We also have multiple different fire and circus acts that we offer in the evening. A lot of which most have actually reached out to us, wanting to join our festival. We make sure to have all safety protocols for our fire dancers we have multiple volunteers for these acts with different safety measures to put out any accidents that may happen on stage. We take our performers and the public's safety very seriously especially after the Carr fire. We keep our festivals professional and fun for all ages.

The festival offers something for everyone between the entertainers to vendors of great foods and a wide variety of art and unique items. You should come early to stroll the festival, have some food and stay to watch the night performances of fire dancers. It's a great festival. We have sold (been an artistic vendor) for two fire festivals here and each year gets better and better. Everyone should go once to experience a great unique adventure. It's great for families and well worth spending a day having fun.
