We have been season ticket holders since the beginning of Argyle Theater. We appreciated the email of steps Argyle Theater was taking as precautionary measures due to concerns about the coronavirus. Ushers were offering alcohol wipes to all to use in addition to the additional sanitizing steps that the theater was doing before and after the performances. Fortunately since the theater is still in the early stages of growth, there are still sufficient empty seats for use to separate yourself from others. It is fabulous to see the effort that is going into keeping the theater functional as an avenue for all to utilize during this outbreak. As for the performances, each one has been fabulous, directed with such professionalism, and the actors and actresses of well seasoned performers and you can see their experience during the shows. We have just bought our third season pass for the new season of performances and encourage all to do the same. Buy a ticket for Cabaret, which was outstanding Friday night, and ask if you can apply the cost toward the next season performances.

We spent 3 days / 2 nights in the Whitney room for our Anniversary. There is really not much at all to do there, no real activities, so it was a huge difference for us to just relax and catch up on sleep and relaxation. They have a small gym, but other than that, there's just food at the restaurant. There is a hallway with photos of the history of the Castle and a "Chaplin Room" with a plethora of Charlie Chaplin memorabilia. The furniture is solid antique wood that you cannot find anywhere else, the high ceilings exquisite, and all the comforts of modern life such as the sprinklers, smoke/fire detectors, elevator, etc. A bit disappointed there was no small refrigerator in the room, for the price they charge, but it was a very large room with modern bathroom and a great view. The bed and cushions were very comfortable and we slept quite deeply. Extremely quiet too. We had a great time there and really got to relax. The tour is great because it gives you some great history with many people that you have heard of before but did not know were a part of the Okeka lagacy. The restaurant is unbelievable with the quality of food they have - I am entering a separate review on that. It is expensive for the average person, but if you want to treat your significant other to a bucket list of staying at a Castle, this is the place.

We usually buy the subscription plan to see all their plays. It is a nice place to see a play without traveling into NYC. And the shows are like Broadway. The also have valet parking which is a big plus in Northport.

We have been to a number of tribute bands in NY & CA. By far this was the best boasting a 12 piece band with 4 brass components. The bar was open and the dance floor was full. Best birthday present I ever had. Not a regular group performing there, but are know on L.I.
