Wow! This Hale Center Theatre is amazing, right? So big!! (especially in comparison to the old Hale Center Theatre back in the 80 s) It was a fun experience to go see a show here! Starting with location and parking. The location was easy to get to, right next to the freeway. I was worried about parking before going but it was easy to park with their nice big parking structure. When you walk inside it feels like you re going out to a show! (insert song, Let s Go to the Movies from Annie, here)!! I saw the play called Bright Star on the Jewel Box Stage. This is their smaller stage. I was impressed at what they could do in this space! The effects and staging drew me into the story. The costumes, sets, and the talent were all top notch. Some incredible vocals. And the small band for this show were amazing! They were always present on stage moving the story forward with complex music, and had so many cues to follow. My husband is the integral banjo player for the show!! But boy, amazing musicians all around! I was sitting on the side but I still felt like I could see all of the action. The seating was comfortable. There was an intermission. After the show, the crowd cleared quickly and easily. It was an enjoyable night out!
