Now that I have a family member that attends here, it's nice coming back to a familiar place. Cypress College is one of those gems in Orange County for theatrical performances- they have a great set/prop team and they have a vast range of performances from the classics to the esoteric. Parking is free for performances, and during intermission they offer water and snacks for $1. Also, it's surprisingly chilly in the theater, so bring a sweater if you're the type to get cold. I recently saw the musical Carrie, and props to the set crew! I loved how they projected images of screaming girls into the trees, and how Carrie projected her telekinetic powers throughout the show. I was wondering how they were going to take a disturbing Stephen King horror novel and transform it into a piece for musical theater. I realized I was watching a tale of someone constantly bullied, pushed to the brink of telekinetic disaster. Rather than horror, what I felt was disturbing heartbreak (attested by the sniffles in the crowd) of someone struggling to fit in, and losing that battle. While the subject matter is certainly not my favorite for a musical, it doesn't take much to see the parallels Carrie and the horrific school shooting incidents in current times, and I felt this musical was a great thinking piece for today's culture. Bolstered by the strong performances of the lead singers, I wasn't sure what to expect, but I really enjoyed the show!

The Cypress College Fine Arts Theater has alot of potential. For having recently watched the…read moreOff-Broadway rock musical Little Shop of Horrors. (Remember the movie about the people-eating plant back in the 80's starring Rick Moranis and Steve Martin?) I wasn't expecting much but I completely enjoyed myself. The cast played their roles just right, always in character and always on point. Despite the small amount of stage room, the production team did a good job on props and portraying the different scenes. The theater itself isn't as grand as the Pantages. But, it's college theater, it offers you just enough. Their seating are stadium style seats and may squeak from time to time upon adjusting your derriere but serves it's purpose well. They offer refreshments during intermission. Gummy bears, candy bars, chips, soda and water. Unhealthy and inexpensive. Their restrooms need a little updating. i.e. more stalls. Women's restrooms never have enough stalls and the line can get pretty long. All in all, this place is what it is. It's local, it's decent, it's great for the smaller productions such as this one. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ 3/5 Ambiance - The mood, character, quality, tone, atmosphere. 2/5 Service -Helpful, accommodating, efficient, delivery and speed? 3/5 Food / Merchandise - Quality, taste, presentation. 4/5 Price - Reasonable, inexpensive, high priced?

Can't talk about it, but it takes a lot of hard working talented people to pull off a new quality TV series. Special thanks to the staff that constantly cleaned the restrooms during the day so that whenever I used it--they looked like they were just cleaned. And the food service craft people that prepared for me a custom egg white omelet with veggies for breakfast and delicious baked chicken, broccoli and potatos for lunch to power my 13 hour day here. This location has a special place in my heart because it has the, "I Dream of Jeannie" house and Stage 31 where the "Partridge Family" was filmed--two of my favorite shows from the past. If you are coming here to work, parking right inside Gate 11 is plentiful and has a few large tree covered spots. Just down the block outside the Studio is: Western Bagel which opens very early in the morning, CVS, a Pizza Place, and 2 Gas Stations across the street with convenience stores.

Your high school play is a poor comparison and so would be most of the stodgier tradition stuff that you would imagine.

I can not say that I am a fan of Shakespeare's art but I enjoy good live performances of all types of theatrics & music. This Shakespeare Company does do that very well.

They only have a very small dedicated parking lot. But no worries. You can readily park on the street for free all right within 1 block of the theater. Bring a picnic lunch and get here early. You can spread out and enjoy it on the grass of the park which is right outside of the theater. They sell beer, wine, and soda. Bring some singles with you. You won't be disappointed.
