Venue was good (Palace) but the bar at intermission was a joke, only 4 bartenders, no beer on tap (taps were either broken or out of beer) and no domestic beer. More

Always top-notch productions, but acting, production quality, etc. We've been season subscribers for years and it just keeps getting better. More

I've seen shows done in several cities. Outside of New York City any show you want to see is worth it at this venue. More

We saw Flannigans Wake and had a great time. Play and Improve combine to make it a special event with the audience right in the middle of the plot and entertainment. More

An amazing jewel in this working class town. Beautiful old theaters filled with enthusiastic people. I've been to major theater productions in NYC and London, and both times I've been amazed at how nice our Playhouse Theater venues are in comparison. More

While walking by the theatre complex we decided to investigate purchasing tickets for the evening performance.

Don't miss the CPH if you visit Cleveland. More

The temperature was comfortable and parking was adequate, well lit, and close to the building- for $8. Bathrooms showed their age, but weren't a problem. Water was reasonable at $2 per... More

I went to see "Beethoven As I Knew Him". Great show and great theater. Parking is expensive, and the neighborhood is bad. I heard that the theater is going to be taken over by Cleveland Playhouse Square. More
