The fact is, the theater might just be too small since it's hard to just show up and get tickets-- it's good to pre-order and get your tickets at will-call. I've only seen one play here and it was pretty good. I will update based on quality when I see more productions, but for now, it's one of the better things going in Evansville.

This review is for the Evansville Civic Theater Annex. Being from out-of-town, my sister and I were…read morevery excited to see a showing of "The Outsiders." We followed the directions to the theater according to the website, which of course led us to the original theater, and not the annex. On the website we then found a small blurb about the location being at the Washington Square Mall. After finding the mall, we still could not find the annex, and the theater's website provided no number to call to talk to anyone. We drove around for an hour, and extremely frustrated, missed the show. I had purchased the tickets ahead of time. The lady on the phone could have informed us of the theater's location, or the website could have given clear directions to those of us unfamiliar with the area but wanting to support the theater. Which we still did--the box office manager refused to refund our tickets even after my polite call and e-mail. If we ever make it back to Evansville, we will certainly not be going here.

Many of the plays they put on here are great, but I take issue with their smoking during…read moreproductions without warning or notice to audience members. It has happened three times now that my husband and I have had to leave productions due to smoke. There are no warnings about it on their webpage, nor their flyers, nor does anyone tell you about it when you call for tickets. Quite to the contrary: their programs explicitly say that smoking is not allowed in any building on the UE campus. They are willing to let people pay for tickets, take time out of their night, pay for babysitters, and turn down alternative plans only to have to leave a production 20 minutes into it with a headache. Even though we left the play once it was apparent there would be smoking all the way through, we were told there would be no refunds or credits available. I've been in many theaters all over the US- New York, San Francisco, Houston, Nashville - and not a single one has had smoking on stage. If they can figure out how to keep the dramatic effect of the play without the actual smoke, why can't Evansville? At the very least, the smoking should be advertised so that people can be in choice about whether to spend the time and money. As it stands, it seems clear that the policies are set up to hide this fact until they already have their money in hand. My husband and I have season tickets this year and will not be renewing them until this policy changes. Buyer beware - you may be walking into a smokey theater without warning if you see a play here.

They even allowed us to use their laundry for part of recovering from our act we did. So grateful! A very cool and large venue that can be adjusted to fit your needs. We were very comfortable performing and getting ready here. Lots of space for backstage and animals and props etc. We will definitely be back next year!

Our tickets stated arrive 30 minutes prior and our out passes started at 10:30am. The doors didn't open until 10:30am and it was a mad dash for the doors didn't open. Took us about 20+ minutes to get into arena. After losing 20+ minutes, they cut off the main driver autograph line and pushed people away. If I were Monster Jam, I would never use this venue again. Small arena for trucks and they couldn't do a lot of their stunts because of space. Will never attend another Monster Jam in this arena and do NOT recommend anyone else spending hard earned money to have the venue mis-manage the logistics. Very disappointed and frustrated.

There was a bit of a bottle neck through the main hallway to get to the first floor elevators, since you had transverse the lines for merchandise & concessions. The bathrooms were clean and fully stocked. Exiting the venue afterwards was equally as smooth & quick. There was an issue during the opening act that was dealt with quickly. The light crew were talking so loudly that it was very disruptive (we were seated in the balcony). Their conversation was clearly audible. Other concert goers tried to shush them to no avail, and it was getting heated. Once they usher was alerted, the problem was immediately dealt with and we could once again enjoy the show. Again, I was impressed with how they managed the problem. I would see another show here.

Visited the Events Plaza, for the first time, last night for Hadestown…read more Pros: Clean facility (though they did not stock the toilet paper prior to this large event). Friendly, professional staff. Has a wide variety of performances and events. That being said... Cons: The sound system was awful! We were in row L, and had trouble hearing and understanding many of the lyrics (luckily, we have seen this production before in NYC, otherwise, we wouldn't have understood the plot). You know the sound is bad when the sound of people chewing popcorn is louder than the performers on stage. The rows are long with no center aisle. Just something to be aware of when choosing your seat, if you don't want to squeeze passed multiple people to get to a center seat. Will more than likely not visit again, especially for a musical performance. Disappointing since it is so close to home.
