The Human Race is a gem in Dayton's crown. The company produces fantastic, diverse theatre and helms a variety of community outreach projects. The company also fosters the growth of new works. Don't miss your chance to see a show here!
An excellent theatre! The design of the venue allows the audience to view any production with ease and comfort. All the seats are great seats! A Dayton gem!
Passionate performers, professional and welcoming staff. Always an enjoyable time.
3rd time we have seen a play at the HRT. A nice venue. Creative plays with atmosphere.
Saw Lizzie. Show was wonderful and theater was awesome. Not a bad seat in the house, small & intimate!
We are so lucky in Dayton, to have wonderful theater. The Loft is such a great venue. Hats off too all!!!
Excellent artistic font in Dayton's cultural oceans.
Went to see The SantaLand Diaries, a one man show, done extremely well, and quite quite fun, humorous, and entertaining. This gem of a theater is well done in an older building, great seating, nice atmosphere, with nice shops and a nice snack bar to enjoy if you arrive a few minutes early.
It was a wonderful show, well written and performed. I really loved the background information on Norman Rockwell!
Funny, original shows and not a bad seat in the house.
We've been series ticket holders for 15+ years. We like the intimate atmosphere and the great selection of shows. Great seats all around. We park off Jefferson Street behind the theater in the garage. They serve drinks that may be brought into the show. There are a few nice places to eat in the area prior to shows. The last show, 'Around the World in 80 Days,' was superb.
Very skillful performers. Interesting plays. Great sets and sound.
Amazing company! always has interesting shows and stellar casts! I've seen too many of their shows to count. would recommend anyone and everyone.
Great evening had by all! Saw the play 'The Cake'. Really fabulous. Wonderful intimate theater
I loved it .. the place is small so it doesn't matter where you sit you have great seats
This is my favorite thing about Dayton. It seems to have a long history of embracing both the fine and performing arts and The Human Race is one it's true treasures.
They're primary performing venue is in the Loft Theatre and it's a gem in and of itself.
The Human Race theatre company is a professional company that produces it's plays from beginning to end.
The sets, lighting, sound and all that that's needed to put on a truly professional play are wonderful. The sets in particular are always so interesting.
The plays for each season cover a wide range of themes, genres and source material.
Additionally the company holds classes, special practices, many other things that allow patrons and the public to have a more interactive experience.
It was founded and is still operated by Daytonians who are all active in the community. They are also a supporter of Muse Machine.
This season's theme is Women of Influence. So far I've seen Lady Day and the star of that production was amazing.
Then I saw Cake. This is such an influential play. It has so many important thoughts woven throughout. It has some hilarious moments for sure and not all of life's situations get tied up in a nice bow.
But not only is the dialogue impactful, and as usual the sets are great but the acting in this was absolutely outstanding. The subtlety of facial expressions to convey conflict affected me deeply and inspired a lot of thought.
My husband and 2 of my 20+ year old kids attended and we had lots of good conversation afterwards. Everyone was just enthralled with this production.
I also happened to see the movie Harriet the same weekend. So suffice it to say I was truly impacted by women of influence. This season still has more plays to present, there are no bad seats at the Loft (I promise), everything is completely handicapped accessable, and The Human Race always has plenty of offerings going on.
Go to their website and then call Ticket Center Stage and give a genuinely professional and locally produced theater (the only one in Dayton) offering by the The Human Race a chance to entertain you!!!!!!
We saw Lizzie Borden the musical, not my cup of tea but I enjoyed it nonetheless. The human race always does a good job. I've never seen a show there that I didn't like. I recommend then highly.
