    Garden City - Things We Love: Visual Arts Collective!
    Anneliessa B.

    VaC is the very best of the very best. Of course, I'm a bit biased, but I've been to many venues, seen many shows, music, theater, visual art, film, burlesque, performance art...the gamut of all that is creative and VaC truly is the best of the best, from the space, to ongoing incredible shows, to those who keep it going. I am so proud of the what it has become and its contribution to wonderful, creative, packed with talent and vibrant community!

    I came to the Vac for the Green Zoo album release show and was pleasantly surprised. The sound quality was great and the drinks were inexpensive. Additionally, there is wonderful, awe-inspiring art along the walls throughout the space. Even the bathrooms are adorned with humorous and beautiful art that make you think, make you laugh, or both. Also, the women's restroom is well kept and you can still hear the music!

    Such a fun place full of art and live shows. A must if you want to see combination of art on stage and on the walls.

    The VAC gets 5 stars for the amazing statue of Buddha in a gas mask that's on the right when you first walk in.

Local performers are the cast. If you are anything but a senior citizen, you might be the only one under 55. Seats are a little weary. Stages tend to be simple. Lighting and sound are fine Large lobby area with a bar helps with intermission. Plenty of parking. Two good Asian restaurants in the same strip mall. A Bosnian sandwich shop is a culinary change of pace. One of the best dive bars in all of Boise, the Navajo Room, is also in the same strip.

This theatre is very cute and has a nice layout that's easy to navigate where you're going.. I also appreciate the bar with a fair selection of canned drinks and they do a couple themed drinks for the shows. One is typically an Italian soda that can be be made with a shot of vodka or nonalcoholic. I think it would serve them well to add a 3rd option for themed cocktails but I can see why they want to keep it simple for the bar employees who get quite busy on show nights. One down fall is they have no food concessions whatsoever. They put out a small plate of store bought cookies at the bar for intermission but they go super fast... and they are just the Keebler cookies so really nothing all that special so be sure to eat before you come here. The shows they put on are great quality especially the one my fiancé and I went to most recently.. Santa Clause conquers the martians! It's honestly the BEST stage prodution I've seen thus far and I've seen A LOT of amazing theatre productions!! I got a great deal for this show as I volunteered for a day here recently at the box office. When you volunteer they'll give you a free show ticket. I'm not sure if I'll volunteer as a box office attendant here again... while I overall enjoyed it, things did get overwhelming up front at one point and I needed assistance from my supervisor who was helping out at the bar. She definitely gave me a hard time for that after my volunteer shift was up but I do understand her frustration with me, I can't blame her for wanting everything to run smoothly when i forgot how to do a couple tasks that she showed me during training. I recommend being a volunteer for community theatre but unless you are very tech savvy, I'd suggest volunteering as an usher at Boise Little Theater instead as that's much easier and you can still see a show for free. Overall it's a great playhouse and I look forward to returning in the new year!

    Experience the Best of Boise at the Morrison Center…read more A premier theatre in Boise, Idaho, the Morrison Center offers an exceptional lineup of Broadway shows, Philharmonic concerts, ballet performances, and an incredible variety of talented musicians. The theatre is currently undergoing construction to update and add additional bathrooms, a much-needed improvement that will greatly enhance the overall patron experience. Adding to the experience is the Morrison Center Gift Shop, featuring beautiful and unique jewelry, fair-trade items, and wonderful creations from local artisans. The Gift Shop is operated by dedicated volunteers, and proceeds go directly back to the Morrison Center to support the arts and its programs. From outstanding performances to one-of-a-kind shopping, the Morrison Center offers something special for everyone. A theatre experience not to be missed!

The event center is beautiful and so big! We sat towards the back half of the event center and it was so nice being able to see the screen and stage. Regardless at how tall the person in front of me was, the staggering of the seats didn't block my view. I'm pretty sure no matter where you are sitting, it's still a great seat. There was a 20 minute intermission for the singer and band members to take a break. Of course we headed to concessions to grab a drink. It was nice how they had it set up. The line went really fast and guests were being helped at a great pace. We were able to get our goodies and head back to our seats pretty quickly. I know there are a lot of events that happen here. I need to be more proactive and see what they are. The venue is so pretty here. The seating is comfortable and nice. It was cool to have my first experience at the Morrison Center tonight. I look forward to coming back again soon for another one.

    I was really looking forward to seeing Shakespeare in the park, but I gotta say, the Winter's Edge…read morewas a major letdown. Despite flying in outside talent, I've seen better high school performances. Only a few performances stood out. One actor did a decent job and clearly understood the text, though he was surprisingly calm for a supposedly manic character. Two others were ok; one started badly but turned it around, while the other started strong but lost momentum. Most of the performances felt very one-note. One monologue had decent emotion but lacked any kind of range. The performances were also stiff, as if they were acting only from the neck up without using their bodies or playing off one another. There were also several moments where the cast simply didn't commit to the moment. Additionally, there were some odd creative choices, like a father with a Southern accent while his son played it like a character from Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure. Even for a modern adaptation, it just clashed and felt incredibly out of place. Although, I wouldn't fully blame the actors, I feel like another director might've pulled better performances out of them. Ultimately, we ended up leaving during the intermission.
