They used to display Rikes vintage holiday windows, but when Shillato pulled rank and moved then to Cincinnati, the had their very own styled by set designers. There are always themed drinks for every show, and you can pre-order intermission drinks and pick them right up! There's also a very cozy wine loft on the Loge level with upscale wine and seating. What's not to love? On a similiar note, if you ever get to see the stage version of "Back to the Future' its a wonderful production! We saw it here yesterday and we're amazed how much we both loved it.

We explored reasons why. The Nutcracker ballet is very common in Tokyo, considered a popular annual Christmas and winter tradition. Major ballet companies stage multiple performances each season, often selling out to large audiences. We all were most impressed with this performance; all in all, exceptional.

There is a B-17 restoration project in the hangar, along with a DC-3, a B-25, and while I was there a Glastar. There's also a B-26 firebomber outside (probably the best landmark; you'll see it from the road.) Volunteers are helpful, and you can wander the fairly new hangar and look at assorted displays (a WASP/WAC one was prominent during my visit, celebrating female military aviators in WW2.) You can climb into the DC-3 and check out the cockpit. The museum and airport host the Doolittle Raiders gathering each April; the B-25s stage here to fly on to Wright-Patt. And don't forget some pie at the Airport Cafe while you're here.

This is not to be missed if you are in the area…read more The place was active on our day, a docent instructed us around, lots of volunteers helping out and working on the B17. Lots of things to touch, see, and read. A real education on WW2 aircraft. Admission is free. I encourage you to donate.

That being said the staff are genuine, friendly and went out of their way to accommodate our need for someplace to sit. The room is long with the stage at one end and the bar close to the entrance. I noticed that there is an area for 18-20 year old at the front of the business so they can enjoy the music. The quality of the sound was excellent and this is for a group with complicated sound and music. The prices at the bar are about average. I will keep my eye on their schedule for when they may have someone I can appreciate. When there are certain groups the seating is limited to the stools along the wall but I would imagine the age of crowd that would attend doesn't care about standing.
