I went online and found some "value" seats for only $35 each. Seats were on the edge but the small theater made every seat great! I liked that they had a scavenger hunt for preshow and intermission. Sadly the second clue was too hard to figure out. I completed 3 out of 5 clues. I also enjoyed the costumes on the mezzanine. Excellent theater in Indianapolis!

We are not always sophisticated people, but we are excellent at pretending. We started at the bar, which looks the part completely. Elegant, well stocked, the kind of bar that makes you feel like you should be wearing something nicer than what you showed up in. I ordered an old fashioned, at which point the gentleman behind the bar admitted, with full transparency, that he was not actually the bartender and would need to Google how to make it. I genuinely appreciated the honesty. In a galaxy full of people who would have just guessed and handed me something terrible, this man chose truth. I thanked him, switched my order to whiskey and coke, and we moved on as allies. From there we headed to concessions and ordered the Take it to the Greek wrap, the La Bamba pizza, and fries with little bits of steak on top. The food was good. Not life altering, not the kind of meal that makes you grab someone's arm and say nothing, just nodding, but genuinely solid movie theater food that arrived at our seats without us having to do anything except recline and wait. The seats reclined. There were actual tables. This is civilized. We watched Disclosure Day, which if you have any interest in extraterrestrial or UFO subject matter is absolutely worth your time. Sitting in a reclining leather seat watching a film about potential contact with beings from other worlds felt appropriately cinematic, even if the leather on most seats has seen better days. Chipping and worn in spots, which is the one visible crack in an otherwise well maintained experience. The theater itself was clean, the concept is fantastic, and the overall vibe delivered exactly what a day date calls for. Four stars. The bar needs an actual bartender on deck and the seats could use some attention, but Living Room Theater is still one of the better ways to spend an afternoon in Indianapolis.

I wanted to see The Devil Wears Prada 2 but didn't feel like doing the regular movie theater thing,…read moreso we decided to try this place out for a more elevated experience. Glad we did! We went on a Sunday and found street parking pretty easily, but then realized the theater validates parking for up to 3 hours. Such a nice perk -- wish I knew before circling around lol. We bought our tickets online ahead of time, and when we got there I ordered the garlic cheesy bread and a drink at the counter. Total was around $15. The seats were really comfy and spacious, which made the whole experience feel worth it. The food came out pretty fast. The garlic cheesy bread was probably like a 5/10 for me... not terrible, but I probably wouldn't order it again. Overall though, really nice theater and I'd definitely come back for another movie night.

BEEF & BOARDS-- CATS!…read more Folks, let me tell you... our food was absolutely wonderful! The roast beef was tender, I tried something new with the fish & shrimp Newburg (and loved it!), and the asparagus was steamed to perfection. Chef Larry Stoops and his entire kitchen staff deserve a huge round of applause! ‍ Outstanding job! And can we talk about cleanliness? Everything is always so clean, even the restrooms, which get more than a little use while the show is going on. That kind of attention to detail matters! Now, last but certainly NOT least... THE STAFF! Honestly, this is one of the best teams in Indiana. From the moment you walk through the entrance to every interaction throughout the experience, the hospitality is outstanding. They make you feel welcome, cared for, and ready to enjoy your visit. And just WAIT until you see the dessert pictures! Seriously, I would trade Jeff for another piece of that cinnamon roll cheesecake... and if you know how much I love that man, you know THAT is saying something, folks! If you haven't experienced Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre, put it on your list. Great food, wonderful people, and entertainment all in one place! From the food to the service, Beef & Boards gets a standing ovation from us! #BeefAndBoards #Cats

Wife and I went to see "The Play That Goes Wrong" today. It was actually a lot of fun. The buffet…read morewas decent, with roast beef, tilapia, and several vegetable options along with salad and all the all the toppings. My only complaint is that there were little to no vegan and gluten free options available, as my wife is gluten free and vegan. All she could eat was a zucchini and squash blend, some cucumbers with French dressing, and some fruit that was a little tart. The service of the wait staff was fantastic. Jasmine did a heck of a job taking care of us. Addressed any concerns and made sure we had a good experience. The dessert at intermission was really good. My wife had some strawberry sorbet (v and gf) and I had a strawberry sundae. Both had real strawberries in them and the ice cream I had was great. Overall, I give them 4/5 just because of the lack of vegan and gluten free items in the menu. Also, handicapped parking was nonexistent, and we ended up parking on the street next to the theatre.

Phoenix Theater is in the heart of downtown and this being my first visit I was amazed by the contemporary building which wasn't too huge but just the right size where we enjoyed a 2 hours long show around some really impactful issues in the world. The space seems to be non profit driven and built going by the donations wall and it's kept really clean and spotless. The staff is very friendly and they maneuvered effortlessly through the show. I saw people from all parts of the world, and professions attend the show and had invigorating conversations in the end. Definitely check out the shows and plan some especially during the colder season.

The architecture and overall atmosphere give it a timeless feel that you don't get in newer concert halls. Yes, the seats are a bit dated - but honestly, that's part of the charm. It adds to the character of the space rather than taking away from it. The orchestra here also puts on great performances, which really elevates the whole experience. Overall, this is definitely a must-see when you're in Indianapolis. A classic venue with a lot of personality.

Very sad because it was our first play to check out with the Festival and we thought next year we might do a pass for multiple shows.
