This is a beautiful facility for any kind of performance. However, I am boycotting simply because they charge outrageous 'Handling' prices for ordering tickets online or via the phone - 15% of the cost of the ticket! So, the more expensive the seat, the more you get charged for the privilege of buying tickets. I recently went to buy 3 tickets @ $45 each. They wanted to charge me $30 in handling fees. Uh, no. So, I bought tickets to the same performance in Sarasota and buying tickets online only cost me $4 per ticket in 'handling' charges. I can drive the extra 30 minutes to save $18. That will buy me a decent dinner before the show. :)
