I booked tickets for a BFF bday getaway in Gilbert Arizona. I choose this after reading reviews here and looking at their website. I admit we had a slight concern when we saw the sea of grey hair in the audience, but it was a 5 star performance. I almost didn't buy tickets ahead assuming there would be seats in a community theater, but I'm glad I did get them ahead as it was a full house. I Would do will call if I go to Gilbert again. I actually forgot my tickets ( I live in Canada) There was no problem looking it up. I haven't been to a round theater before and it's a must try. While the seats were a very slightly old style squished, ( & air freshener In the bathroom would be a good idea) it did appear that every seat had a good view. It was neat to see how the director placed everyone so no one feels like they missed out on any action. I didn't take a star off for being squishy as it was a great night and it was a nice temperature. The price point is fine. All the staff were friendly and appeared happy. The drinks & snacks were reasonable priced which I truly appreciate. I loathe price gouging at theaters. There was free water as well. No problems with parking and there are several restaurants around. The cast for John Loves Mary surprised me with their talent and pulled me right in. They stayed outside to thank people and came together for our picture- that I will share if my friend ever emails it to me. ( hint hint ????????) There was wheelchair seating available. I was I, pressed with all of the actors, director and behind the scene staff. I will send a short out to the actors and recommend any future shows they may participate in. From the program they were Kim Stephenson Smith, Matthew r. Harris, David Michael Paul, Laura Soldan, Justin Howell, Juli Gore, Joey Morrison, Tom Endicott & Bobby Jean Owensby. Bravo!

One of the few, conservative churches left in AZ! I love the priest here, they know what true reverence and serving in example of holiness means! The Latin mass is beautiful and the way I wish it would be everywhere! If you are looking for the REAL thing, St. Anne is the parish to be celebrating the REAL Presences!

So a group I was with booked the experience not knowing how it was going to be.. and I didn't look it up beforehand. I was unsure of what type of experience it was going to be, as it seemed a little cheesy in concept.. but once we started, it was awesome! the amount of teamwork that was needed, the puzzles were difficult, but not too much so to make it not enjoyable, and working as a group we were able to beat the team we were competing against.. trying to make this a spoiler free review..lol It was really enjoyable and fun, the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. I would rate it a 5 out of 5! the form wouldn't let me go back to the date we visited, which was April 2016
