Accessible seating is awesome here! Good cost, they have listening devices available by leaving your ID with the person up front at the rotunda that allow you to hear the play from the stage mics. The chairs in Accessible area move and while they have arms, they are high enough to allow for larger behinds to sit in them. Even the main seating has been updated to allow for larger behinds, though you are very close arm and leg wise in those seats and getting out with a cane would not be advisable. Sound is great and so far every play has been stellar. From the Popejoy of my childhood the improvements are astronomical. A+ (PS they now allow the food from their little food area to be taken into the theater. No outside food. It's cookies, nuts and candies, hot drinks or sodas and water. (Baked goods and warm drinks are 'as available' and may run out or be unavailable some shows.)

We have a gem of a performance space right here at UNM. Great acoustics, friendly volunteers, and a wide variety of shows - everything from touring Broadway productions to dance, plays, mariachi Christmas, etc. Don't miss the opportunity to catch a show at Popejoy Hall!

I purchase tickets yearly for Popejoy presents Broadway New Mexico. Did a matinee on Sunday. The electronic ticket devices make it a quick seating. The lobby had young gentlemen playing Christmas music. Refreshments can be purchased. We saw Hadestown. Story about a young girl, Eurydice, hungry and selling her soul to Hades in the Underworld for food and warmth. Orpheus, her boyfriend, goes to find her. A another plot surrounding Eurydice and Hades as well. Much more interesting story than I have portrayed. What was amazing to me is the level of talent that graces the Popejoy Stage. If You haven't experienced it is worth a try. Last show was Lion King. I appreciated both productions! Especially fond of seeing something new like Hadestown. The casts have Broadway, television and even movie credits. This is top level entertainment. I would love to encourage more productions!

We had a difficult problem with our tickets for a show playing in 2 days. They were very gracious and handled the problem with compassion and courtesy. We will definitely patronize this venue!

What a joyful night attending the NMBC version of the Nutcracker Ballet!Popejoy Hall is well run, clean, and the staff is friendly and helpful. The Nutcracker was performed by 120 performers and dancers. Epic! The costumes, props, and even the pyrotechnics were great!The Ballerina and Cavalier were top-notch, professionals. Flawless ballet dance moves. Great evening!

Disappointing customer service! Charging customers to exchange tickets for the rescheduled Hamilton show (originally scheduled in 2022) is double dipping. Do better, Popejoy! As a "courtesy" I was issued tickets for the 2023 show but for a date I'm not available. Because the ticket price has gone up since I purchased tickets, I had to pay the difference. Fair, if I had been given the option to choose the date I was rescheduled for in 2023. A one time exchange at no fee to the customer wouldn't cost Popejoy anything! You'll make up the difference in the ticket price with the sale of the tickets I released, especially since I exchanged my Friday seats to attend a Thursday show.

Great place for a show! The venue is small enough that there really isn't a bad seat in the house. Acoustics are great so sound is always wonderful. Popejoy offers a wonderful variety of offerings at a reasonable price. Sometimes the lighting is pretty distracting, as at the recent Simon & Garfunkel show, where a spotlight directed at the guitar was hitting the curtains and distracting enough that, during the whole show, people disrupting the show commenting on it. Volunteers are quite helpful and the venue is easily navigated. Parking is always pretty easy, however parking payment kiosks leave you in a long line every time (this is likely user-error), you should arrive early to avoid standing in line forever to pay. We've been here 12 times and will return.

For a small town university theater it rivals some of the larger theaters. Great seating, great acoustics. And a list of awesome shows. We are season holders and look forward to our theater time

We go to the Popejoy two or three times a year to see a show or event, and are always happy with the experience. Parking is easy and they are handling Covid well and have good processes in place to move people through. This year we've seen Mean Girls and the Temptations, and we will be back in a few months to see Drum Tao. Our favorite thing is to see a show, get dinner, spend the night, then hit the Standard Diner (now the Range Cafe Downtown) for breakfast before returning to Los Alamos. I'm grateful they are such a large part of our entertainment plan for the year, keep up the good work!!
