Arden Theatre Company

Reviewed By PhillyShaney - Philadelphia, United States

I am a lover of the ARTS..just wish I would participate in going out to the theatre more often! I haven’t been to the Arden in a while, but when I returned to see ‘My General Tubman’ it reminded me of what a great space this is to showcase talent! The seating is intimate and you feel each actors portrayal with the intensity they deliver! There isn’t a bad seat in the Arden..so feel confident that you will enjoy the show no matter what tickets you may have. This particular play I saw was a creative storytelling of Harriet Tubman’s life and achievements as well as placing a modern twist on the interpretation of some events! Keep up that the great work of fostering top notch creative shows!

Curtis Institute Of Music

Curtis’s free student recital series most Monday, Wednesday and Friday evenings is a fabulous opportunity to hear wonderful music played by super talented young musicians who will be the stars of the future. They also live stream on YouTube if you can’t make it in person.

All an Act Theatre Productions

All An Act Productions, or A3, as we affectionately call it, is an Erie theatre troupe whose mission is to make quality theatre more accessible to the Greater Erie Community.We strive to expose more people to The Arts and continue the tradition of live Theatre in Erie.All An Act Productions was founded in 2004 by Larry Lewis (Managing Director) and David W. Mitchell (Artistic Director).The Arts should be accessible to everyone and live theatre is no exception. We endeavor to provide a venue where those who can’t regularly go and see Erie Theatre can, and those who already do can go more often.Our intimate space allows us the opportunity to bring you even more quality productions at an affordable price! Additionally, $1 of every admission is donated to Community Shelter Services and benefits Erie's Homeless.Here are some of the comments we received from our audiences:"I am honored to become a fan. Arsenic and Old Lace was fabulous. Looking forward to attending more shows." -Connie Iesue-Bucci "Why don't Erieians know about this wonderful production? I don't think I missed a single play last winter." -Elizabeth Cavette "Not Now Darling is hysterical, we all laughed harder than I think I ever have." - Patty LaFlamme Sample"GREAT SHOW !! SPENT AN ENJOYABLE EVENING WITH MY WIFE AND DAUGHTER AND SOME GREAT THEATRE - CONGRATS TO THE CAST ON THIS SOLD OUT SHOW !!!" - Robert Smerick"Taking great strides forward this year were All An Act Productions' Larry Lewis and David W. Mitchell. Their 2008 shows began and ended with proficiently performed farces by Ray Cooney. They also met the rigorous demands of Edward Albee's "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?", the challenge of their first musical "The Last 5 Years", high gravitas in "12 Angry Men", and geriatric warmth in "A Bench In The Sun". Audience growth bodes well for the future." Floyd Lawrence, Showcase Magazine. "...in the months I have been reviewing plays at A3 one thing I have noticed is that the team of Larry Lewis and David Mitchell has a magic that no other theatre has. They are all looking for it but they just miss it. I am not sure what it is, or how they do it, but the two of them are making the works performed at A3 some of the best, most enjoyable shows in town." - Rob Taylor, EriJams Magazine

One of our daughters gifts us with Season Passes every year so we are old patrons by now. Today we joined in the story of "God's Favorite." AAA typically chooses a comedy to close out the season and this choice was among our favorites. Rather than spoil the story line, please give yourself (or selves) this theater gift to make you laugh out loud, question your beliefs and remind you that Faith is a sometimes hilarious journey. Many surprises await!! We have mentioned before that a $ of every ticket sale goes back into the Community Shelter wherein both AAA and the Shelter are housed. Over $60k has been raised since the inception of AAA.

Reviewed By wickenhaus - Dauphin, United States

We had the privilege of seeing A Christmas Carol last evening and were amazed at the production. We attended with two young children and some friends and everyone thoroughly enjoyed the performance. Acting was top notch. Makeup, lights, and effects were on point! Scrooge stole the show but the supporting actors were all great. My youngest was scared only when Jacob Marley was on set, who also performed exceptionally. Other than that the kids loved their night at the theatre.
