Spacious theater with plenty of spots to practice or do rehearsals before showtime. Staffs are great communicators and are always helpful. This place has been around forever and City Hall is a great place to gather or use public restrooms as well. Cafe is easily accessible next door. If you come here in December during the annual Christmas Tree Lighting event, you won't be disappointed. Colorful Christmas vibes everywhere. There's a good sized local park behind it and you can easily park on the streets which are all walking distance. Besides ballerinas and dancers, you get to watch singers, group choirs, and many more colorful entertainments on the outdoor stage area. Inside stage is usually reserved for larger popular shows. Yes, dressing room and areas for practicing before performance time is well set and they're usually on time moving groups in and out as scheduled. Love the backstage area and scenes. Good feeling inside and outside.

Parking was free for this event, in Lot 1, the closest parking lot... with plenty of stairs to climb to get to the theatre. Not a problem for me, I could use the exercise, but not ideal for everyone. The theatre's pretty average, lots of seating, (stadium seating assuring good viewing of the stage and screen), no memorable decor or features, the sound quality was okay, a bit echoey during the live music performance on stage, a little better during the film showing. Leg room is minimal. Sitting in aisle seats in a packed theater, we had a get up multiple times to let people through. The courtyard/outdoor open space was small, especially for an event like this, and it was crowded. They had to use a separate room/theater for overflow seating. Though it was far from perfect, it was a sufficient venue for the event we attended.

If you're like me and late sometimes, you'll be happy to know there's plenty of parking to go around. A M B I A N C E + The theater seating is consecutive straight rows like an auditorium, so every seat has a good view. We had assigned seating. Theater was clean and cozy. + The chairs were comfy, not the kind where you end up stiff if you've got long legs. + There are ADA seating available, and specific shows with ASL interpreters. + Concessions and restrooms are super close on the right of the theater when you enter the front doors. + The acting, stage design, and music were superb. The stage design was very elaborate considering their low budget. +++ The fake snow falling outside the theater after our show was a lovely touch. C O N C E S S I O N S I didn't partake in any as I came directly after dinner. They had several options from Famous Amos cookies, m&m's, wine, beer, hot chocolate, and tea. There wasn't a bag check, so you could bring outside snacks if you wanted to. + There were lots of free cookies and wine after the show. S E R V I C E + The staff were helpful in assisting us in finding our seats. T L ; D R All in all, I would highly recommend Theatre Works to anyone looking for a chill evening out. Whether you're a musical lover or just looking for something fun to do, this place is a winner! I'll be back for another musical in 2025!

Barbara Ehrenreich, Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America "When someone works for less pay than she can live on -- when, for example, she goes hungry so that you can eat more cheaply and conveniently -- than she has made a great sacrifice for you, she has made of a gift of some part of her abilities, her health, and her life." Barbara Ehrenreich, Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America I made my first visit to Lohman Theater, on the Foothill College campus, to support Yelper VB's lead turn in the play adaptation of Barbara Ehrenreich's best selling book: Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America. Lohman Theater, as it says on the web: "features an advanced audio system, lobby video monitors, and internet access throughout the facility. A large lobby area, suitable for receptions, doubles as a gallery space for art exhibitions. With an intelligent design that utilizes technology and maximizes space flexibility, Foothill's Lohman Theatre has many features which create a sophisticated, comfortable space for theatre patrons and performers." I was indeed impressed with the theater and had an excellent seat two rows from the stage off on the left side. Seat was comfortable with very good site lines. The students/actors helping with customer service were professional although I thought the "working" theme music was played too loud and the bathrooms were a bit messy. The play itself was written a bit ham-handed and obvious with two many quick scenes and a definite "pandering to the audience" feel to it. Unfortunately, the people who need to see this snapshot of the hardships the working poor face, namely Republican leaders and anyone in the Red States who keeps voting them into office, will never see it nor be open to its ultimate message that if one chooses to work, one should be afforded the dignity to be able to live on that wage. And it is interesting how our culture now treats the working poor. My son, who has grown up with a very bleeding heart liberal father who helps create affordable housing now asks me to estimate what everyone makes that he sees when we go out. When I see the derision in his face when I tell him how little the service workers we encounter probably make, I know that didn't come from me. That comes from our current culture, especially Orange County's culture on how the population views the working poor, and I definitely have my work cut out to teach him some knowledge and empathy. However, my feelings about the obviousness of the play and its message do not extend to the actors who from VB in the lead, to the Students and other actors supporting her, were absolutely outstanding. I was impressed with several of the actors performing not least of whom the actress who played Holly as she nailed that role perfectly. Having worked in customer service to pay my way through my first college degree I knew that character several times in my life and again, the young woman creating that character could not have been more suited for that role. As was VB playing Barbara; she inhabited that role almost perfectly too without really seeming to be "acting". A nice understated, hitting all the right notes yet bringing the emotion front and center. A fantastic effort by everyone in the cast! If you can see it before it closes on Sunday, I highly recommend it. seats I think are $18 on the weekends, $3.00 parking. There was a Goldstar deal but it has ended. I will definitely come out to this venue to see more performances. P.S. Wal-Mart comes under fire because of their documented abuse of workers including making them work without pay. A congressional report was just released that proves the American taxpayer is essentially subsidizing Wal-Marts profits since so many Wal-Mart workers have to access public assistance. The Walton Family's billions are essentially blood money paid from the backs of their workers and from taxpayers like myself who would never even step foot in one of their hideous stores.
