Well attended and organized. Great sound system and beautiful, professional plays.
Always have fantastic shows! We went to pippen this time and the choreography was fantastic. Always a great place to go.
The costumes were beautiful; the orchestra amazing! I was moved to tears by the older cat who sang ," Memory." Not even Jennifer Hudson could belt it out in such a moving fashion as to make the crowd clap and cheer!
Surprising quality! Tech is broadway style and talent is pulled from way outside Wichita! At times the crispness reminds me this is not broadway... But then the quality makes me forget again.
Amazing music and dancing. Have loved every show season after season.
I never leave Music Theater disappointed. You expect a world class show and they deliver season after season.
You know what it is. Great show. Flawless staging. Seats are very comfortable. Acoustics are Grand. Orchestra is on point. Go watch something!
Monumental and magnificent Carmina Burana by Wichita Symphony tonight :)
Excellent music theater productions in the heartland! They bring in top Broadway actors and young rising stars and have amazing sets, costumes and lighting. A gem!
Cats was magnificent! Such talent, great voices, choreography was spectacular, and scenes were awesome!
Saw "In the Heights" this evening and really enjoyed the quality of the performance even from seats way back in the balcony!
I love that we have such great musicals in Wichita!
Never disappointed! Amazing performance for sound of music!
I've been bringing my daughter since she was eight, She is now 22 . This has been one of our traditions. Thanks for all you do for top notch memories!
Professional, top rated Theater performances right here in our own backyard!
Went do a college essay for music appreciation, not really thinking I'd like it. Turns out It was very pleasant. I would consider going again especially with a friend.
Had a great time! Waitress is a fun production. Great cast and music.
The young people's performance of Peter Pan was fun to see. Looked like everyone on stage and the audience had a good time
We use to live on Long Island. We'd go in to the City about twice a year specifically to watch a Broadway play. One thing we found interesting was the number of actors listing MTW in their experience in the playbill. It's too bad so many folks in Wichita don't experience Broadway plays right here in Wichita.
This is the best regional theatre in the entire Midwest. Broadway quality every performance.
In The Heights was an excellent production, in a city starved for anything from Lin-Manuel Miranda. The talent was first rate. A special bonus is the kids choir doing preview numbers for next year's season. Savvy advertising! We definitely hope to catch more of these productions in the future.
MTW is one of the best things about Summer in Wichita!
Broadway quality theater - amazing talent, costumes and sets!
I just would recommend that anyone have an open mind and attend an event here. It might not be a concert which I would prefer but I would recommend. Also please do not tear down century ll we will be very upset.
MTW never allows refunds of any kind, no exchanges no exceptions.
If you buy any tickets from then, dont buy until day of, when you are sure you will be able to make it.
Would have made this one star, but they magically dont have any, and I didn't want this deleted
Music theatre of wichita is wonderful. It is better then Broadway.
Wonderful place. Let's see what the city does with Century Two.
I cannot get enough of Music Theatre of Wichita! It is a treasure to the community! Every summer my husband and I try to take in at least once show. Some day we'll be in the financial situation to get season tickets, and we're looking forward to that day! I have never been disappointed in the quality or production level of an MTW show. The youth choir is always fun, and a great way to encourage the next generation into the arts. When I was a teenager I also had the privilege of apprenticing at MTW in both the lighting shop and the costume shop. It was an amazing experience for any young person who loves the theatre. It was also great to see shows from the back side of the stage and see, even more, the kind of work and dedication that goes into these shows. All the cast and crew are amazing and work so hard to bring the best to the patrons. I'm looking forward to seeing where MTW goes and the new steps it takes as Wichita considers the future of Century II. An unforgettable experience that everyone in the city of Wichita should come and enjoy! Well done!
Fantastic production
Wow! The cast was stupendous, sets were wonderful, choreography was special, and they made great use of the Century II stage. I'm not a big Gershwin fan, otherwise I'd give it five stars.
Saw an excellent and entertaining rendition of Chicago, perfectly cast, reasonable ticket prices for theater.
Awesome performance!!! Will be back soon to watch another.
Wonderful show! Sound system was great and we were sitting back orchestra under the balcony. Had to discipline myself to not sing along since I know most of the lyrics, as do many others! I played Marta in a HS production in 1966!
Our family has been season ticket holders since 1992 and we've never seen a 'bad' show. Always top-notch, stunning performances and it's an amazing opportunity for up and coming artists. Several have gone on to perform on Broadway.
Very nice music theatre. Great performances that you would expect from a larger city.
High quality performance every time. We've been season ticket holders for years. Always get more than your money's worth. It's a great learning experience for all ages of aspiring performers. The live music orchestra is a beautiful enhancement to be treasured.
My girlfriend and I went to Sister Act, the first show of the summer season for music theatre and let me tell you it was fun from start to finish! I'd definitely recommend getting season tickets. I've been going to Music theatre Wichita for 6 years now and NEVER had a bad show. Definitely worth the money.
A wonderful performance. I believe it was the best Sound of Music they have done.
For being Off-Broadway productions, they produce some good shows. I went to see Jesus Christ Superstar in the summer of 2016, and I was very impressed by most of the cast. I am a bit of a theatre snob, and I really can tell when one person's voice is not up to par with the rest, and you should expect to see that here. But the ticket prices are pretty good for what you get. These people are really just a step or two below Broadway, and you can tell, but the quality of the overall production is good. What is really deserving of 5 stars is the location and proximity of the theatre to Old Town and also the guy who comes out before the show to talk to the audience and introduce the YOUTH CHOIR! They are a special treat, in addition to the price of admission. I will definitely think about getting a season ticket next year, dependent on what shows they put on.
Wichita Music Theater's Sound of Music was wonderful!! Would highly recommend seeing this show. Well done!!
Loved H
airspray! The dancing and singing rivals anything I've seen on Broadway!
The orchestra was FANTASTIC!! I will definitely go again!
Joe bonamassa concert was awesome! Great Show crowd lived it!
Watched the Nutcracker today with students. They did an amazing job!
Wonderful. I took an elderly music Theatre friend that had not been for several years. We had great seats in the middle of row N so she could have a great view of the entire stage. Thanks for the improved sound system it was so much more enjoyable for a senior with hearing difficulties. Can't wait for An American in Paris.
Excellent entertainment! Helpful staff. Comfortable seating.
Great theater! Seats are nice and the talent is great! My only negative would be the parking. There is plenty of parking but most of it is metered parking. We were not aware of this and did not have enough quarters to assure we were paid for the proper length of time. We ended up in a free lot which was about a 2 block walk.
Always world class shows. So proud to have them as a part of the Wichita community.
Awesome show! Dinner was great! My service was just wonderful!
One of Wichita's art gems. The Broadway shows are amazing.
high quality Productions of classic Broadway musicals. Not adventurous in their choice of material. Mostly the same old stuff from the 50s and 60s. Very high prices! Dedicated to educating young people in theater.
They absolutely know how to do it right.
Each show this season was wonderful!
The Little Mermaid was AWESOME! ! !
Affordable tickets, Broadway quality shows! The musical productions are spectacular! My friends and I always have a good time there! Wichita's finest at best!
World class! Really, if you are in Wichita you gotta get tickets
WE ENJOY MOST OF THEIR SHOWS .. WE LIKE THE VARIETY OF SHOWS THEY BRING TO WICHITA ... LOOKING FORWARD TO WAITRESSES !!!!!!
Music Theatre of Wichita is ALWAYS excellent! Even when a show may not be your "cup of tea," the talent and commitment to excellence across the board is remarkable!
Thought Chicago was excellent! Loved Velma and Roxie they did fabulous jobs!
Outstanding musical theatre productions that are Broadway caliber! A must see when visiting Wichita!
The Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder, great play!
In the Heights was every bit as good as when we saw it on Broadway. Another superb production, MTW!
