A nice theater all around (pun intended). Parking is convenient and it's relatively easy to get in and out.

The shows we've seen there have been hit or miss.
The theater is comfortable and tickets are affordable just don't expect Boston quality shows.

We'll be back to see more shows.

The music theater r smelled like chicken, the lady in the front was I think dressed up like a piece of bacon, and she smelled a turkey and cheese sub. I ate one of those last night, and she licked my forehead. You should check for beans. your business sucks. And the guy sitting next to my grammy had a panic attack. He sweated on her ., I saw beans in the crevasses on his forehead. There were dirty sweaters on the floor. I said, "get a life, crack hash." he ran away crying Sobbing beans and red ommeletts. I swear to god i saw a red pepper speed and spirt out of his throbbing crebass and his stem whipped off and sprouted into action. I think he should get artificial eye wax.Get a wash cloth for that, Bobby Jack.

Loved Jersey Boys, excellent seating and you can actually see the stage from anywhere you sit! Also enjoyed the courtyard area with snacks and plenty of outdoor seating. Relaxing, entertaining and enjoyable afternoon!

I love North Shore Music Theatre. We are yearly subscription holders. Today I invited guests to see Las Vegas show and sat in Section C. i enjoyed the music but I was very disappointed because most of the singers spent their time with their backs to us! Unfortunate North Shore MT. I am embarrassed to have brought my guests.. new to NSMT!

Excellent plays! Wonderful experience! Love that it's a round theatre with the stage in the center. There really isn't a bad seating the house. The actors come down through the isles during the plays and up through the floor. It really is an amazing experience

I have loved this place since the first time I attended an event here, probably 30 years ago. I am always impressed by every aspect of the shows, beginning from the performers to the costumes to the artistic directors and right down to the minutest details, observable only to those who have been part of the performing Arts. I always come away bedazzled by how smoothly things flow and how they never cease to amaze me. Having been a dancer myself, I tend to be more moved by the artistic expression of the dancers, accompanied by the music. It often moves me to tears. I will never forget the productions of a Christmas Carol with the storyline touching me deep within my soul and the main character, David Coffee, who delivers the lines with such convincing earnest. North Shore Music Theatre will always have a special place in my heart and I will be forever grateful to Bill Hanney for raising it from the ashes! I cannot express enough how wonderful this place has become since Bill has acquired it!

This is a very nice theatre and very professional even though it is in the middle of nowhere off the side of the highway in Beverly. It is the perfect place to bring large school groups or summer camps and stuff like that.

North Shore Music Theater has great shows. They are professional well presented productions. The seats are close enough to see the expressions on the actor's faces. The acoustics are very good. Always an enjoyable night out.

Last night we saw West Side Story at the NS Music Theatre, it was amazing. Some of the classic songs seemed a little dated but it wouldn't be WSS without them.
The cast was terrific their signing and dancing was on the mark.

I am a season ticket holder with a group of 9 others. Not a bad seat in the house. Have never seen a bad show there. The drink specials are always tasty and fun. Good selections of snacks as well as beer, wine and liquor.

Last night my family saw a performance of the musical Mamma Mia! The show was thoroughly enjoyable and the theater was very comfortable. We always enjoy the NSMT as the experience is considerably less hassle than going into Boston, and some of the talent is on par with much more costly venues. We particulary enjoyed outstanding performances by Erica Mansfield (Donna), David Elder (Sam), and the very entertaining and talented Tari Kelly (Tanya) whose voices were true Broadway caliber.

The choreography was captivating and the colorful costumes were vibrant and joyful. I do wish that they made a bigger deal of Dancing Queen, and would have like them to perform Fernando. But, all in all, as a great musical should, the performance stirred our emotions and we left the theater uplifted and in song. Great night out!

We saw Peter Pan at this theater. The acting singing and dancing were superb. Great talent, sets music - top notch performance. The only downside is the ladies restroom during intermission. The lines are way too long.
