    Great community theater value for a date night

    My wife and I were down in the San Diego area when I discovered this wonderful community theater in La Mesa through the Goldstar on-line discount service for live performance events. We saw an excellent performance of the Pulitzer Prize-winning "Crimes of the Heart" in...More

    Saw a Neil Simon play

    Cute very small venue in odd spot in La Mesa. Didn't even know it existed even though I grew up in the area. Good performance and friendly staff.

    Great plays, good prices

    We have attended several plays here. Some are great, some wonderful, some just entertaining. The cost is really cheap, can't beat it for a night or Sunday afternoon out, supporting community theater.

    One of the best community theaters

    Lamplighters is one of the best small community theaters in the San Diego area. We drive over a half our to see their plays since we enjoy them so much. They do a great job of selecting plays that are not the usual fare.

    Really good community theater!

    We've attended several productions from this theater group and are pleased with the quality provided. The acting is good, the production selection is always pretty "family friendly" and the ticket price is decent. My only complaint is that the seats aren't the most comfortable -...More
