Last night we saw 'Friends: The One With Ace Ventura' for the second time. The experience starts right when you walk in, as there are characters wandering around and seating you. The characters play off of you, making each show different. We love 'Friends' and 'Joey', 'Ace' and 'Estelle' truly elevated our evening. Some of our party was very involved as it was a birthday and they were also chosen to be a 'guest'!​ The food, yummy as always, and the fun menu, full of 'winks'. Thank you for very special family memories. We will be back.

Set…read morein the heart of downtown, this 100 year old historic building still conveys its original pride in its golden leaf mouldings, the original theatre ceiling and original walls. Most of the architecture has been updated and the lobby area houses the sexy and sultry Velvet Restaurant. The main theatre is a jaw dropping thing to experience, from the catwalk you see an expansive area with rolling seats that can be set up as a classic theatre formation or can be set up against all four walls with the stage in the center. The hardwood floor is rich and dark and the brick wall is an interesting urban feel which could house really unique staging. The theatre was renovated by theatre diehard loyalists and you can tell the dedication that has been put into this venue as everything is so well taken care of. There is a killer mezzanine area, with a bar that presently has been popular for wine and scotch tasting events. The only criticism I would have is because of all the historic restoration they are not so open to hosting youth events there but it is understandable considering the fine details of the architecture. All in all the place is a superb location and akin to theatre spaces I have seen in New York City and Toronto, but it's not its grandness is all right here in Calgary.

The fact that they had a mobile system to preorder drinks for pick up at intermission made things move smoothly. The staff was friendly and efficient. We loved the decor and really enjoyed walking around looking at all the art school students art. The themed drinks and decorations were great too. Thank you to all the amazing stage and show crews who put on a fantastic show. I have 2 complaints but I think they're universal to theatres and event centre's in general; there need to be more ladies bathroom stalls or make all the bathrooms gender neutral. Second is that seats should be staggered so that you're looking over someone's shoulders and not into the back of someone tall's head.

Even that hour was unpleasant. The seats feature very thin cushion over a narrow hard wood frame, with short, hard wood arm rests. Everyone in my section stood up immediately at intermission. People behind me were rubbing their legs and hips complaining about how uncomfortable the seats were. Made a beautiful production less enjoyable

What I love about the University Theatre is that it is intimate. It's tinier than other theatres, which means you're not going to be too far from the stage no matter where you sit. Since this theatre is on campus, it features a lot of events that showcase local talent and arts. The sound system, lighting and dressing rooms are comparable to other theatres in town, and tickets to attend shows here are normally extremely reasonably priced.

However, A Killing at La Cucina misses the mark by a long shot. In a word - boring. Two people talking (one with a fairly heavy Italian accent that can't always be understood) and a suspect. No action except for a brief moment towards the end. Don't waste your money on this one!

I admit that I'm a huge sucker for ghost stories and haunted houses, so when I heard that the…read morePumphouse Theatre was reportedly haunted I had to immediately check it out. I purchased a couple of tickets for my sister and myself to a little production one night. The tickets weren't expensive at all - $25 for a couple hours of entertainment is definitely worth it. Even though I didn't get to experience any sort of paranormal activity I was thoroughly pleased with the whole evening. The play was interesting and appealing; the seating is limited, so therefore very intimate; and there was always the added excitement of having a run-in with a ghost. I'll probably head back to the Pumphouse Theatre the next time I'm in the mood for a play... or when I'm hoping for a good scare.

The beautiful red brick building, acoustics, and large stages enable intimate but feasible setting for plays, shows, and the like. My only complaint is the comfortability (or lack thereof) of the seating. The chairs are not conducive to sitting for a three hour show. Most shows include intermissions. I suggest you make good use of said intermission and stretch your legs!! Also, the Pumphouse is tucked away off the beaten path meaning that no eateries are in the area. Do not expect to stop at a restaurant before the theatre if you only want to park once. No restaurants are theatre-adjacent.
