Center Stage Theater Reviews

 great theatre, fairly small venue, but wasn't cramped

 Loved “Once” Clever creative staging, good musicians and vocalists. Suggest 2 at Will Call close to curtain

 It’s center stage. It’s nice, not fancy. But my favorite thing about it is that it gives easy access to the art for everyone.

 Unexpectedly fabulous!

 Fun show and inspiring production!!

 So much fun! The talent in this production is incredible.!

 good sound and lighting...hard working crew and staff.... Felt like an elaborate family outing.

 Wonderfull!

 A dynamite display of talent, teenage exuberance, fantastic, jazz band, superb voices, I was gobsmacked!

 The theater was perfect for this show!! The intimacy of the small theater captures the atmosphere of the play.

 Great theater

 Always great!

 The theater was a great venue for our show, as a student performer I enjoyed the professional feel

 Great atmosphere, lighting, and sound

 Too many seats were sold, so some of us had very poor sight lines, which affected the ability to see/enjoy the show.

 amazing actors and music, first time going to a play like this and it was great

 I loved see Great Comet by Out of The Box Theatre Company! They did a wonderful job and the set was amazing. The theatre supported their production wonderfully! Thoroughly enjoyed by all around me that evening as well.

 Wow!! Another fabulous production by OOTB Theater Company! Samantha Eve is a genius who pulled together a delightful cast and set of musicians who jointly created one of my favorite theater events of all time. If you're reading this and haven't yet seen Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812, try to get to today's final performance at 2 pm. You'll be glad you did. I can almost guarantee it.

 We loved the show…. the staging, the talented actors and fab musicians. A wonderful night out. Out if the Box has done it Again!

 The extremely LOUD music being blasted pre-performance made it very distracting and difficult to focus on reading the important program notes and family tree, which were indeed interesting and important. I found that music, certainly not for everyone, jarring and bruising to my spirit ! I loved the music of the actual production..beautifully composed and performed by your stellar ensemble ! Bravi Tutti !

 So great we want to come back next week!

 I love it. The actors were absolutely fantastic. The show was great. Mar was my favorite aka Helene

 Nolan was absolutely amazing! Such talent and passion for his art! I would see this over and over again!

 A wonderful and talented performances! More please!

 What a special night! Nolan was so incredibly talented and somehow made the whole evening feel so intimate. The theater was packedwith huge applause after every song. The unexpected surprise for me was his personal story telling before each song. Sharing funny, and often deeply touching moments of his life that really drew you in. His fearlessness and passion for singing and performing was inspiring. What a treat last nights show was. Your newest fan! Sally Hanseth

 It was a successful show in every way! Great production! Enjoyed it!!!

 This was the best youth theatreboeosuction

 And the outstanding performance for me was Hades

 Amazing performance!

 It was an amazing piece! Felt like I was at a play in New York at a little theater just off Broadway. These kids can act! These kids can sing! I loved the band and the stage! Hope these kids know they have talent & will keep entertaining the world! The directors should be overjoyed with the first performance!!! Well done!!!

 Show was amazing

 The show was awesome far exceeded our expectations

 Absolutely incredible!!!

 Thus was an inspirational event put on by an extremely inspirational, new organization! I hope they get the funding. They need to continue spreading their message and supporting the youth theater community.

 What a cool experience! Proud of those kiddos. My kids thoroughly enjoyed

 Youthclusive put on an incredible show last night! We were so impressed with the talented cast of characters and will be back for the second show tonight. Well done!!

 The dance group and their teacher were spectacular!!!

 Great e

 With an emphasis on fun, we students from very beginners to professionals were able to show off our moves. It was the perfect venue, thank you

 We had a great time, the show was well staged and super fun!

 Incredible! Powerful, vulnerable, and inspiring.

 Thank you for the intermission so we could leave discreetly. Hats off to the dancers and the work they put in to memorize their parts.

 I am in awe. Thank you.

 Operations bumpy during the Act II-long audience wait time;behind the curtain talk. Master of Ceremonies & Director helped give reprieve. Inspite, Colors of Dance showcased superb talent of hidden diversity of cultures Santa Barbara houses only to be seen in such public venues of theatre, solstice parade, outdoor open air concerts, ethinic festivals, and restaurants. Most importantly, youth opportunity to culturally grow in a very supportive place!

 Amazing show. Great choreography, wonderful dancers. Very impressive performance! I would love to see it again!!

 we enjoyed the performance. we laughed and we were engaged with the flow in front of us. we appreciated the range of movement the dancers had... so fluid and energetic. The dancers were often paired up and it was great seeing the variety and the fit with each other. The woman's voice throughout the show was subtle poignant and funny. we enjoyed the show. thank you

 Palermo was fabulous! So incredibly creative - and every one of the dancers excellent--loved it!!

 It was amazing

   Great stuff. Enjoyed the show very much. Look forward to the next time.

 Steve is amazing 👏

 Steve is amazing and the openers he brought were great fun too. His comedy is real and poignant. You feel really connected to him after his set.

 it was definitely a very unique version of "Peter Pan." It was a lot of fun and all of the actors did a terrrific job.

 I did not enjoy the performance for a multitude of reasons. First, I felt the beginning scene was quite racially-charged, with the mix of Indian music and hypnotic subtext being portrayed. I also thought the writing was quite confusing. Overall, I did not enjoy this performance minus the obvious work the actors and techies put into the show — that was appreciated.

 This was a fun play I just loved it

 Great writing, Peter Spam was entertaining to say the least with its humor and promising talent! We enjoyed Hook with all his long locks! Grrrrrrr arrrrrr! Lol

 First Act could have been shortened. Second Act was very entertaining.

 Who would take on such an old story of Peter Pan? I was amazed at the characters, costumes, acting and the script was engaging and complex. Everybody on cue and I was delighted the entire time, yes, Magic. The theater is so modern and lights sound perfect.

 Amazing

 Excellent performance. Wanted it to go on longer!

 Super fun production - amazingly talented teen theater ensemble

 This was a terrific adaptation of Little Shop! The actors were confident and clearly enjoying themselves. Great sets, direction, costumes, music and an overall delight to see!

 A wonderful performance. Well done by all.

 So much fun and energy. The kids were just on fire

 The show was amazing!

 Entertaining and thought provoking!

 Amazing show! Loved the entire evening.

 Stunning work by all!

 The event I attended last night was absolutely amazing! The dance school put on an incredible performance, showcasing their talent and hard work. I was truly impressed by the passion and skill of this amazing group, and their beautiful costumes added so much to the experience. I hope more people come out to support them in the future—they truly deserve it! Farrah

 Yes. Very enjoyable.

 The kids in the play, and the high schoolers that have worked with them, should be very proud of their production. They did a fabulous job!

 Wonderful wonderful event!!!

 wonderful and so moving for all women!

 Wonderful vignettes celebrating women and the human condition in general..

 well done and very interesting.

 He was awesome. Didn't crumble even though the atmosphere was so quiet and stiff.

 Hilarious!
