Concerned by mold/mildew on ceiling tiles

First time here, and it's for Matilda. The place looks wonderful, and new. The lobby was large enough for early theater goers. We paid $5 each for VIP entry. So we waited in a line that was granted early access to seats. No assigned seats. It was only general seating. While waiting I noticed discolored ceiling tiles. This was a little disconcerting as the last place I worked had similar tiles that had to be replaced due to mold & mildew problems that lead to employees hanging respiratory problems. We were very glad that we purchased VIP tickets. It's the last performance, and before showtime, it was packed. The VIP tickets allowed us to chose seats toward the front, center stage. The seats were comfortable and our view was pretty good. It's a lovely theater, with red & green hued pyramid shapes on one wall.For this production the actors and actors were good. Sound was mostly good, but there were a few feedback or battery issues. I was impressed by the sets. Excellent.

I make it a point to visit any African American museum in a city that I visit. I was pleasantly surprised to see that Albuquerque had the AAPAC! The building is huge and is very nice. The staff was very friendly when I made my visit. The main focus of this space is for events and performances. There was nothing scheduled when I came here so I went to the art gallery. At the time (August 2018), the exhibit on display was that of a Chicagoan photographer, and other art by a different Chicago artist, both depicting African American men.I enjoyed the pieces, however I wish that there was more emphasis here on the art/history/life/culture/ideas of African Americans living in New Mexico. I know that the African American population in NM is small, but still, I wanted to know more about what it's like to be a black resident there and about the history of how "we" originated there. Resources for this may be limited, but I think it would be great to have as something to consider.

Nice venue. Saw "Elf". I like the smaller venue. The price on tickets much more reasonable than Popejoy. Now that I know MST performs there I will be attending more often. Don't make people stand in line for so long before seating We came early to get a better seat. Stood for over 20 minutes. Why not open it. Others ahead of us worked in friends who came later. Not a huge deal. Ticket sellers recommended to come early because of open seating???

This is a great venue for performances. While it is not the largest venue in town it is comfortable and well taken care of. Parking is easy to get in and out.
