I have been here for a few shows now including Mamma Mia. A large, attractive theatre but the lobby a bit crowded during intermission.We had great seats and loved the show. Drinks were expensive. Located on King St. Toronto.

We saw the Book of Mormon and it was a wonderfully staged performance with only a few technical issues. The theatre itself, however, could use some improving. The view from the first row of the balcony and dress circle is incredibly obscured, a fact which should really be mentioned when buying tickets -like they do at other theatres. The staff...

The Princess of Wales is a nice modern theatre with lots of space in the lobby, the hallways etc. Concession space was not an afterthought as in some of the older theatres crowding out walking room. The seats are comfortable and from my experience, the sight lines are good.
Seen over 15 shows at this theatre. It is accessible for seniors/wheelchairs and has an elevator. The theatre has art by Frank Stella and all seats are great (aside from very back of orchestra)

LONG line ups for the washrooms ! But the seats are off set in the theatre so you don't have anyone's head in front of you . That I liked !
My wife and I are in Toronto vising family, and on a whim we decided to take in a play and decided on the "Book Of Mormon" at this theatre. What a great place to see live theatre!!! The acoustics were amazing, and the view , even from the top balcony seats were great. I hear its being torn down...

Unfortunately, this great theater is being demolished to make way for another condo complex that will not include a theater. Very sad...but David isn't his father Ed who built it 15 years ago and is trying to squeeze every penny out of his inheritance.
Regardless of what show you're there to see, the theatre's ambiance provides theatre goers so much more! Just a wonderful feeling just being there! Don't ever tear it down Mr. Mirvish it would be such a loss!!
