My partner and I absolutely love the Ellie Caulkins Opera House! It’s our go-to spot to see the ballet, and every visit has been incredible. The theater itself is stunning, with a perfect mix of elegance and comfort. The seats are always amazing, no matter where we’ve sat. We’ve tried multiple areas—closer to the stage, further back, and even in the balcony—and every single spot has offered a fantastic view. The sound quality is incredible, and the space is designed so well that you feel immersed in the performance no matter where you are. The atmosphere here is magical, making every performance feel like a special occasion. Whether it’s a classic ballet or something more modern, the Ellie never disappoints. We’re so lucky to have such a beautiful venue for the arts!

I recently had the pleasure of visiting this venue, and I must say, it was an outstanding experience. Getting in was a breeze, which is always a plus. The sound quality was absolutely amazing, truly enhancing the performance. I was impressed that there really isn't a bad seat in the house; every spot offers a great view. One of my favorite features was the retracting chandelier—such a unique and beautiful touch! Overall, it’s a fantastic place to see a performance, and I can't wait to return for another show!

I love this venue. The staff, the sound, the layout are all so good. Pro-tip- take ride share and skip parking OR go on Sunday when downtown parking is free!

Saw the Nutcracker here and it was just a magical experience. As magical as playing Nintendo 64 for the first time. I recommend not buying the themed cocktails, paid 52 dollars for two drinks and they weren't even tasty; the bartender looked like she wanted to fight everyone in the room. The staff is absolutely wonderful and helpful. I love the place.
