Saves you a drive to downtown. I like it because it saves you from driving all the way to downtown. Even though the theater cannot be compared to the Pantages, it's very adequate. The seats are comfortable, and because the auditorium is smaller, it's okay to get cheaper seats because you can still see from the cheap seats.

The best part is that it's right across the street from Paseo Colorado, so parking is super cheap compared to downtown. If you dine at any restaurant in Paseo, or get a validation from Macy's, they will validate for 2 hours. And then for the next 3 hours it's only $1. The retails stores will validate for 1 hour. Sure beats the $12 parking at the Pantages!!

Neat place...but a little too cosy.. The seats are tightly spaced together, and the hike wasn't something my Grandmother enjoyed. They should warn people about the hike to the top being so steep. My 80 yr old grandmother had a hard time making it up to our seats, and had I known I would have made sure our tickets were a little closer to the main entrance. However the venue itself is quite impressive and a neat place to check-out.
