We were fortunate enough to stumble upon this absolute gem of a theater company last night…read more What a STUNNING performance of The Other Place from start to finish. The cast was excellent but I must afford a huge shout out to Roberta V who frankly carries the entire production herself. I judge performances by how invested I become watching, and Roberta had me from the first moments and never let go. Beyond that, her ability to shift perspectives on a dime, emotional outbursts and overall believability was well beyond the typical playhouse efforts. We loved every moment, and were shocked at how fantastic the entire production was. Please plan to see this before it closes, and we will see all of others as the season marches on.

It's nice to be so close to the actors and see everything that's going on with them - facial and other physical gestures. I think there were only about 20 tables for seating. Half of the Community Center was for the stage and the other half was art on display. The play itself wasn't that great. Most of the actors (5/6) were awesome, but it just wasn't that great of a story line. It is a local theater that doesn't receive sponsors or grants. If you're in Gilroy/Morgan Hill, please support them.

When we got to the theatre (a quaint, historic hall), we lined up, paid for our admission and were taken to our reserved table. We got a table to ourselves and when we were seated, we helped ourselves to ginormous basket of delicious snacks. The M&Ms were my hubby's favorite and I liked just about everything else. The house is spacious and deep and the stage is elevated which helps with viewing the performance since the house isn't raked. We went to see a performance of "The Foreigner" which turned out to be a fun, entertaining comedy. It was a great evening of entertainment and we got to meet the family and speak to them for a bit afterwards which really made me love this theatre even more. What a great venue, theatre company, and theatre experience. I'm excited to come back!

I was curious to see if the Morgan Hill Community Playhouse had been reviewed yet, and was…read moresurprised to see only "1" review so far. I can't believe it has taken me so long to review this great theater. Coincidentally, the first show that my son played in (as Pete Bailey), was the first show the first reviewer had seen at this theater :) When told, "there isn't a bad seat in the playhouse" -- I was skeptical. After my son having roles in 7 shows with SVCT now, I can confirm that there seriously is "not a bad seat in the playhouse" -- I've almost tried them all ;) A great community theater, in a great community -- if you haven't been you should check out www.svct.org, and get tickets to the next show!! :) Also, tons of fabulous restaurants within walking distance - so it makes for a great date night :) Thai restaurant across the street is EXCELLELNT -- very friendly owners, and incredibly good thai food. And, Bubbles Wine Bar across the main road... very nice place as well. Plus, several more great dining opportunities to choose from down the street.

Tonight I had the pleasure of joining my good friend to see "It's a Wonderful Life" at the MH…read moreCommunity Playhouse. What a beautiful theater and such a warm and inviting cast that performed! I truly loved it! I was really shocked that this place has not been Yelped yet! This theater is very easy to get too. Right off of Dunne and Monterey Road where there is a huge parking lot and plenty of little restaurants to eat at before hitting up a show at the theater. This theater is definitely a small close knit community which is really nice! The theater is small but not tiny. Our seats were perfect and it was nice being so intimate with a stage and a cast of characters. There were people old and young there enjoying the performance and it was pretty obvious that most of the audience knew someone on stage with the array of flower bouquets to greet their friends with after the show. The sound and lighting was professional and that of a big time theater. The cast was phenomenal in "It's a Wonderful Life" and I applaud (literally) each and every one of them for taking their talents to entertain so many people and bring smiles to so many faces. Such an inspirational show and I teared up a bit. There were cast members in the show as young as 7 who were so cute and did such a great job saying their lines. I didn't see anyone screw up their lines! Hooray for such a great cast!! After the show we were able to mingle with the cast members and talk to my friend's friend Dave (who played Ernie). He encouraged us to come out and audition for a future show which I might consider for fun (like I have sooo much time right? hehe) Who knows...maybe one day I will be on stage under the lights and makeup on in this theater! I encourage you to come out and support local community theater. This is a great theater which is very easy to get to and park and not to mention a really inexpensive date with your loved one. The show was $17 for 2 hours of pure entertainment. They definitely have made me a fan and I plan to become a subscriber so I don't miss one show in 2009!

The…read moreshows I saw featured actors who had major stage presence and stayed true to their characters the entire time. They were of professional caliber. The smaller size of the theater size itself allows for a more intimate connection to the actors. SVCT's seasons include a variety of shows from the widely-known and often-performed to those shows that are rarely done. In my opinion this makes the theater more unique in its show selection, and I definitely recommend checking out this company's productions. TIP: SVCT also features shows for young performers. Support youth in the arts!

She is currently in the 5-8 yo hip hop class with Savanna and 5-8 yo ballet class with Janell, and again....she absolutely LOVES it. All the teachers are really nice, welcoming, and skilled, which gives all the students the opportunity to fully enhance and develop with each concentration of dance offered. Studio Three offers tap, hip hop, ballet, lyrical, jazz and ballroom dance for both kids and adults. There are two dance floors and a newly renovated area for the dancers, fully equipped with cubbies for their bags, and an area for dancers to do their homework if they have long days at the studio. My daughter has only been here for a year, but I have to say that she looks forward to dance class every single week. Traci, Studio Three's owner, is such an awesome person....very approachable and very down to earth, and is always looking out for the students' and parents' best interest. Class fees are also very reasonable! Looking forward to many more years with Studio Three!
