The Ogunquit Playhouse Review

The Playhouse is on par with Broadway and Boston. The scenery, proformer's are top notch and musicians are the bomb!

Never seen a play that I did not like. The volunteers are amazing. Recently saw Jersey Boys. AMAZING

The show was fantastic!!!!! I seen it in Florida too. My husband seen it for the first time last night.

The production was amazing! Clean and organized play house with top singers and actors.

Fabulous show- great acting, magnificent set for Murder on the Otient Express

Parking was a bit of a inconvenience if you have a emergency and need to leave heading north from the lot...(there was a VIP parking area, so you have options), with that said I enjoyed every other aspect of this small play house..they have snacks and drinks as well as souvenirs. we saw kinky boots btw...and if you haven't seen it, I definitely recommend trying to catch a show

Another great performance , parking by direction of travel when leaving has been a decided improvement

Always a 5 experience. Shows are always first class.

Well I was pleasantly surprised. I had heard about the play house and driven by it many times over the years. Finally friends had decided that tickets would be bought and our group of 7 would go.
It was fantastic. Loved,loved the performance of "KINKY BOOTS". This musical was absolutely amazingly fantastic. You were just swept up into the great singing ,the vocal performances excellent, just excellent. The message in the story line so true. At times your on the verge of crying and then you laughing and then your amazed. I highly recommend this show. I've been to a few plays over the years and believe me their are many that were very good but once was enough and some I wish I had not gone to ,but this performance of KINKY BOOTS I would go and see again,and again, and again . I highly recommend see it if you can . Pictures below.

Great place to see a theatrical performance. Heartbreak Hotel was wonderful. Excellent performers.

We Saw 42nd Street. Wonderful. Never disappointed.

Loved Every Second....PERFECT.....WONDERFUL...a lovely evening full of amazing talent!!

For my first visit to this iconic playhouse I saw a matinee performance of "An American in Paris" and thoroughly enjoyed the venue - and Broadway-caliber musical.

The Playhouse has 668 seats that are fairly small making for a cozy seating atmosphere. Acoustics are very good. There are outdoor seating areas off the right-stage side.

Highly recommended.

oklahoma ...excellent production, and world class talent

Just saw the premiere of An American in Paris. Fabulous performance. The venue is wonderful; modern, good acoustics and well organized. Staff is attentive and friendly. Highly Recommend

Went and saw Frozen Jr. The kids out on an awesome play there. If you are looking for something to take your kids to look into this. They are planning on doing a Madagascar play here in the near future.

Historical in a Hollywood fashion, quaint and excellent shows

Kinky Boots was totally awesome! Great performances by all! Definite must see! EASY to get to from MA and NH...Seats are really comfortable and not a bad place to view performance in the house

Great music, great actors, but left leaning agenda sometimes. Stay out of the political wars. I want to escape into a fantasy or relive classic movies or music when i go.

Saw "Jersey Boys" here great play, with great performers!

Great sight lines and acoustics. The performers in Jersey Boys were excellent.

"What a show!". Love this theater and I'm never disappointed!! Professional, entertaining, makes you want to jump up and join in!! We always hit the Ogunquit Playhouse before we head back to the Hudson Valley in NY!! Don't miss seeing the talent at Ogunquit!! You'll love every minute of it!!

Saw Jersey Boys and the show was awesome! Good acoustics, easy access. Yes I'll be back again for sure!

Have been coming for years and have loved every show!! They always do a wonderful job and everyone connected to the Playhouse is so nice!!

As always everything was fabulous. So glad we have this in our area. Keep doing what you're doing it is wonderful

I have never been disappointed at the Playhouse. The shows are wonderful. Murder in the Orient Express was particularly entertaining. My only complaint is that the 'handicapped' parking is too far from the playhouse. The VIP parking is much closer. I was dropped off at the door but whent leaving your on your own as far as finding your car, getting to it and it's very difficult to leave the property once you've found your car etc. There should be a parking person to get you to a reasonable spot and someone to direct traffic to help the hundreds of cars out to route one both North or South. There will be a bad accident at some point without these needed people to help every one get out in a safe way!! But it won't stop me from going to as many shows as possible!

We saw AN AMERICAN IN PARIS last year. The singing and dancing were a very high quality. There isn't a bad seat in the house, including the wheelchair seating, which is in the very last row. We had a great time.

Loved it! Will definitely go back again. There is not a bad seat in the house.

A very cool venue to see a show.well run from the ticketing,ushers, and parking .

Saw Jersey Boys .,We were in the last row in the isle seats on the left. I had to look around someone constantly. Wish we had been last row middle section. Seats are higher. But that's my only complaint

Awesome! What an amazing theater. Can't wait to attend another performance.

Excellent venue. Excellent selection of musicals. Excellent casts. What more can one ask?

FABULOUS VENUE. JERSEY BOYS, an excellent production. So very professional. I'll be back again. Truly entertaining and uplifting.

Jersey Boys was great! Nice venue with surrounding gardens.

Always a good time. Quality entertainment with air conditioning.

Saw Nice Work If You Can Get It. The scenery, costumes, and choreography were very good. The sound was poor. The orchestra was too loud and much of the time drowned out the singers. Some of the singers voices sounded high toned, but it was not the sound system. For a contemporary production much of the show was old formula. The theater is nice, and has updated facilities outside for intermission time.

Great summer theater. Mama Mia was fantastic. What a gem of a place.

Saw Jersey Boys here. Not only was the play fabulous, the acoustics were wonderful.

Serendipity intervined and my aunt and I got the last 2 seats for Kinky Boots that weekend. The Playhouse itself was cozy, historic, and packed. My only complaint- when I got an alcoholic beverage the server didn't tell me I had no choice but to purchase the plastic O.P. reusable cup, with my Capecodder. It ended up costing me about $15 for a drink. Ouch. Otherwise, the show and space, parking... easy.

Fabulous show i just saw at the Ogunquit Playhouse in Maine is not to be missed! If you enjoy music from the 50's 60's and so on this is the musical review to see! Staff was friendly and very helpful too

Saw Grumpy Old Men and enjoyed it! Intimate theater and you can t get a bad seat (besides sitting behind a tall person). Parking is free and organized to make leaving smoother.

The Best Time Ever great show Jersey Boys highly recommend going there for all types of plays.

My first visit here was to see the play From Here to Eternity. The entire experience was exceptional the Acoustics the scenery but especially the actors and actresses they were phenomenal. I highly recommend this for a very enjoyable evening out

Went with my BFF to see the Jersey Boys. They were fantastic. I haven't had that much fun in years. Great sing along.

Wonderful venue to see a musical. We have been to 3 this year. Each one just like being in New York or Boston. However, this venue has plenty of free parking, plenty of bathrooms, easy to get to and refreshments. Stay is friendly and helpful. Great restaurants close by if you choose to eat out before the show.

I was going on vaca and planned in advance to go see Joseph. I bought the most expensive ticket because the person I spoke to said these were great seats. I've been to at least 40 plays. Love them. This is the most I have ever paid. I was on the side but isle seat. Could see perfectly except the speaker was on the wall to the
right of my head. The music and singing was so loud in this very small theatre that
I couldn't understand the words. Sounded like mumble jumble. To top that off the woman in front of me had a gallon of perfume on which made me sick. I got a headache, tasted it on my tongue and my eyes were burning. They should tell people when they buy tickets no smoking within 30 ft of the building and no perfume or cologne. Be curtious to other people. I was going to leave at intermission but my
husband saw two empty seats further back and asked if we could switch. We did. What a difference. I could hear the words they were singing and the smell was gone,. I am upset because for an hour and a half show., I only got to enjoy a half hour of it. I feel I threw away my money and a good night.

Great play House & smart set up..they think far enough ahead to park you and direction to make it easier for you to leave after the show.

I don't think there is a bad seat in the house the view was fantastic. The sets were professionally done I thought I was on Broadway!

So very pleased

Old-fashioned summer stock theater. Love it. Haven't seen a bad show yet. We go every August. Get the tickets on line and get them in the Spring. They almost always sell out no matter what the play is.

Absolutely professional quality acting and singing!

Fabuolus show different price range seats are confortable. They have food and drinks during break. There show are always excellent, the performance is amazing. Hard to believe that they are just starting out. They even have famous Actors there.

Just left after seeing THE JERSEY BOYS !!!!!
IT WAS FANTASTIC! Seating comfortable and a large (under a tent outdoor) ladies room that was convenient for us ladies. ;)

Very nice, smaller theater. Have not seen a bad play in all the Years I've attended. Great job all..... keep it up.

There is nothing like high quality, big time production served up in a small town, historic venue. The Ogunquit Playhouse is set in a beautiful area, surrounded by a terrific community, and puts on fantastic performances. It has been a treat every time I've been.

Pleasant staff..Just saw Jersey Boys. Great show. Suggest that you order tickets ahead of time. That way you bypass the line and go right in. Get there early for the best parking otherwise bring your hiking shoes.
The only downside is that the seating is pretty tight.

Saw a wonderful production of Jersey Boys. Can't wait for our next visit.

Really great play. Grumpy old men was fabulous, and seeing Hall Linden and Sally Struthers was amazing. Go see it if it's still playing.

Smokey Joes Cafe was great and we just saw Oklshoma -fantastic! Ogunquit playhouse is always great.
