Review of Varsity Theater

I am disabled. I was seated in a 10 foot wide isle on the left hand side of the theater .it was a HARD plastic folding chair, and, when I sat down, I could see only about 3 feet of stage space. However, I was lucky enough to be able to see one guitarist, but only if he happens to step into that 3 feet of the stage, otherwise, I could not see any other of the band members. Very very disappointed. During the show I went to the rest room and, when I returned, there was a woman sitting in my chair eventhough there was a security staff standing 5 feet away, guarding? The door he was standing next to, he had to notice that this woman was sitting in a disabled person's seat. I am Male. I had to tell her she was in my seat. Getting to the chair was difficult, I had to ask 2 different staff for direction to the chair. The first one I asked said she would find someone to help, she never came back! I don't care how badly I would love to see certain bands, if it is at the Varsity, I would not even consider going back, and, that's saying a lot as I go to lots of shows around the city. If they can't produce any chance of a halfway decent sight line, the same right that an abled body person has. There is more, but I'm done. NEVER NEVER NEVER AGAIN!!!
