Flynn Center for the Performing Arts Review

Swan Lake was fabulous but it would be nice if people wouldn't take photos or video during the show.

Beautiful, historic venue. Sound is terrific. Seats are all good.

Staff is great!!
Theater is pretty

The show was awesome and the theater is small and intimate, but the management needs to be better organized. I purchased "Dress Circle" seats, but when I attended the performance, I was told those seats do not exist. There were several other people who had purchased the same and we all were moved further back. Poor mangement. For compensation, they tried to give free tickets to a future event. Unfortunately, there were only five choices, and none of them for well-known acts. When asked if we could have another choice, we were told no, flat out.

The Flint Center in Burlington Vermont is an excellent college town theater with a wide variety of shows including comedy acts, serious lecture series, & plays. The schedule is easy to read tickets are easily available.

Legendary performance venue. Honored to be able to work there.

We had what we consider perfect seats for viewing the excellent performance of The Nutcracker!
The Vermont Ballet Theater did a great job, and the littlest members were a joy to watch.

I first started visiting the Flynn as an Elementary student on field trips, and I looked forward to watching the plays and musicals. As I became older I've started to enjoy the performances (I've seen some wonderful dance performances here in addition to plays), shows, and concerts. The place is a bit tight, but well kept. There is certainly history within the walls, but they are maintained with modernity in mind. The sound is good and seats ample. Staff and ushers are helpful and attentive, never rude. The Flynn space down below is also great to visit for a show!

Staff was very helpful. The theater has very comfortable seating.

Saw Mamma Mia presented by a volunteer group of performers and they were all EXCELLENT esp the leads. If you get the chance SEE THEM in their up coming shows.

A shining star of culture and entertainment downtown. Amazing bookings for a market this small - being along the northern corridor between Montreal and NYC is a huge plus.

Beautiful theatre, amazing sound, awesome shows. Perfect location!

Excellent spot, have seen some great acts there and have had a positive experience every time.

Full disclosure I volunteer at the Flynn. It is a great venue and I highly recommend it if something you want to see is playing there.

Brought my daughter to see Sesame Street Live. It was a nice theatre with an old time feel. Loved it.

Clean, beautiful place. The staff is always very helpful.

Beautiful room with a historic cachet. This place encourages youth culture
Really good location in Burlington

A beautiful theater with a variety of entertainment every night right downtown Burlington!

An amazing theater. Anna Marie and her entire team accomplish more than what the community realize. A true gem in the state of Vermont and the city of Burlington

Went to the Flynn Center to see the band Tinariwen, a fantastic band from Mali. The concert was great, but it is the theater I'm reviewing. The theater was really lovely, the acoustics very good, the prices surprisingly inexpensive and there really didn't seem to be a bad seat in the house. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the theater is right next to the historic City Hall and a host of restaurants, bars, and stores. I don't have a single criticism.

It is always a joy to attend a performance at the Flynn. The volunteers who assist folks to their seats are courteous and professional. The restrooms are clean. No matter where one sits, the performers can be seen and heard.

Nice venue, a little pricy for limited selection of beverages which have to be drank in the lobby. We had a great time seeing Young the Giant and the seats we had were awesome.

Great place to see plays, concerts and other cultersl events.

Top notch theater. Learned the ropes of production in this house from some of the best in the biz. Amazing place to watch an event as well. Like i said. Top Notch.

My first show at the Flynn theater. It was great. Definately would recommend this place.

Great place for a large show, with a more intimate space downstairs for smaller performances.

The Flynn theatre is a wonderful place to see a show. Great acoustics, great space overall, the volunteers and staff are always friendly and helpful too. I've never seen s bad show there, they really have great acts every time. Just saw Annie tonight (11-8-18) and it was a really stellar show. Brought the kids and they were watching, almost unblinkingly, the entire time.

I've had good times here, especially with 1st night.

Decent theater in Burligton. There are a lot of good acts that come around. The main hall is clean and pretty good to see performances. Not too big or too small.

The Flynn is such a great place to see a show or performance. Every seat is close, the acoustics are great and it's a gorrgeous theatre!!

Beautiful historic theater, comfy seats, great accoustics.

Burlington's best theater with a vast variety of live performances. Gorgeous Art Deco design theater upstairs and casual club style downstairs.

Great concert with Brit Floyd but a little too loud. Should have brought ear plugs. I will go to see them again though with ear protection.

Saw the nutcracker, it was a lovely performance. All the seats are good

I always love the Flynn! Saw Les Ballet Trocadero de Monte Carlo. The "Trocks" started in NYC and they are absolutely fantastic. The satire and wit are wonderful. I'm just disappointed that I did not get to meet any of the dancers.

Glorious, historic space, with a friendly staff and an eclectic mix of terrific live performances. A pleasure to attend a concert or event there. Special.

This theatre is absolutely beautiful, it's been kept in great shape. I hope I get to see another show here again - not a bad seat in the house, and the atmosphere adds a ton to a night out.

We saw Shen Yun. It was amazing. Thank you for bringing the arts closer to home

The Flynn Space is a wonderful, intimate performance space.

Beautiful theater, good seating and a helpful staff to get you to your seats.

Very nice facility. Staff is friendly. Only massive down side, no drinks inside the auditorium.

Beautiful venue with a large variety of events for all.

My wife and I went for a concert. The seating was good. As was the sound system. The only issue was a lack of bathrooms. There are only two bathrooms that are both unisex so only one person can use it at a time. Overall we had a great time.

The Work and Dedication that Lyric put into there Plays is to be Commended!They do an Outstanding Job!

Very nice venue, helpful cheery staff. I like that they do not seat while a piece is being performed.
If you're dining in the neighborhood, plan ahead.

The Vermont Symphony was never better at the Flynn.

Cool place. Over staffed with a tight security. They make you feel like you're in a heard. I've seen some great acts there

Love this place. Especially now when we need to connect with others and feel like we are part of a community. The ushers are kind and helpful, the venue is gorgeous, the restoration fabulous, the acts phenomenal and diverse, and you can now bring your cocktails into the auditorium. Win win win!

The Flynn center offers amazingly diverse entertainment in its two venues, 1400 seat main stage and intimate Flynn space.

I love the Flynn. It somewhat recently was renovated/restored and it looks great. They get big names to come and perform. I have seen Daniel Tosh and Jim Gaffigan here.

I LOVE the Flynn! I attend the annual Nutcracker performance and have seen music greats such as B.B. King and Lindsay Buckingham. Always a good seat and sound!

Had the best time at First Night. Kids loved the shows and the visibility was excelle t even from towards the back.

A wonderfully restored performance theater. The Flynn brings in a wide range of performing arts.

The Flynn center is an extraordinarily restored Art Deco theater, so it is a real experience to see performances there. That said, they now allow food in, which can be quite smelly and distracting. They also only allow water in if it is in one of their cups, which are quite overpriced. To top off the water issue, there are no water fountains.

Really nice theatre, the staff is so nice.
My only complaint was that the staff didn't actually seem to know where our seats were, despite them being placed every few feet and stopping us. Also, the rules for food and beverages wasn't exactly clear to me, and we ended up having to eat all our food and drink our alcoholic beverage before entering the theatre.

I love going to The Flynn. I go about 3 times a year and have yet to be disappointed by a show. The seats are a bit cramped, though. I have a few tall friends who just can't get comfortable there.
