I wasn't sure what to expect. It was my first experience with a Cabernet show. The description when…read morewe bought tickets gave very little details only that it may contain a variety of acts and some political humor. What we got to see was nothing short of brilliant. The sketches were done with simple costumes and lighting, yet the presentation was really well played out. We laughed our way through and even had moments of sad reflection that made you feel as if they knew exactly what we needed to see and hear in order to leave feeling a little lighter because someone else understood your pain. It was a cathartic experience and one that well rounded out our exciting adventure into Victoria. Don't be disappointed when you pull up and see the front entrance to the location. It doesn't carry curbside appeal, but trust me the act is worth seeing. We bought VIP ticket seats, which didn't prove to be much better than the regular. But we were lucky to have a comfy sofa to sit on.

If you are fortunate enough to catch a show by Atomic Vaudeville, your visit to Victoria will have…read morereached its sure climax. Expect brilliant sketch comedy, gutsy up close and personal chats with God (who is - of course - a transvestite) and musical reenactments of anything you never thought could be done as a musical. To enjoy you should have seen Flash Dance and have a fairly good working knowledge of Canadian political figures (or be willing to laugh anyway). Rebel Rebel (585 Johnson) usually has tickets which tend to sell out quickly.

The set pieces, the choreography and the talent of these young actors was great to see. They're obviously doing something right as the entire theatre was packed all the way to the back balcony. I've seen a few different productions at the McPherson over the years and have always been pleased with the productions. The theatre is clean and the seats are comfortable enough. There isn't much to say about this theatre besides go see a play, musical or whatever performance they're putting on! It's in a great location, just on the outside of China Town. Highly recommend you checking out a show.

The Roxy has also employed at least two employees for 10 years. Their popcorn is real, with real butter, and reasonably priced, and delicious. On Tuesdays, you can see a double feature for $2.50! It's a bit broke-down - some of the seats have seen better days, there's a stain/eggshell from some audience jackass that's been high on the wall for ages, and the bathrooms have a distinct camp-latrine smell, but if the Roxy changed much or got all fancy and expensive, I'd be heartbroken. It's a place to watch movies, for movie lovers, and it rules.

The theatre is located near tons of shops, attractions, etc., so it's easy to work into your schedule. In fact, it was a short walk from our bus stop after returning from Butchart Gardens. It was early evening on a Monday so the tickets were inexpensive and the theatre was nearly empty. They have bar with plenty of snack and drink options but we opted out of any extras. The seating was comfortable and a gentleman even came out on stage before the movie to talk a bit about the theatre, film fest and the movie itself. The movie was lovely and went uninterrupted and without the slightest glitch. The Vic Theatre is a charming movie theatre with a lot of history and a welcoming atmosphere. Definitely stop in and give it a try.

They had a decent concession going with all the usual suspects. The staff were all very nice and friendly. They seemed to be music enthusiasts themselves, which was nice. Bathrooms are small and old. They need an update. The theatre itself has a lot of character but the floor is very uneven and at such a steep angle to get from the back rows to the front row that I don't see how it's up to code. It seems especially hazardous given the demographic is predominantly elderly.
