Great theatre overall. Amazing acoustics for concerts. Issue during my visit is this is the most uncomfortable I have ever been in a theatre, and i lived in NYC for over 20 yrs lol. I am 6' tall and my legs did not even begin to fit in these seats. Made enjoying the show quite difficult overall. Literally the smallest amount of leg room I have ever experienced in a theatre.

This a gorgeous theater with ornate molding. The acoustics are great. The steps in the theater are steep, and the seating quarters are a bit tight. The bartenders are friendly, and drinks are pretty tasty. Despite the minor cons about the tight seating and steep stairs, it's still a very lovely place.

I love this beaux arts former vaudeville theater from 1918. Can you imagine all the acts that have played here? This gorgeous space was closed from August 2005 until August 2015 and I think it's a miracle that it's still standing.I've attended a variety of shows here over the years from the New Orleans Symphony (now the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra) to comedy shows to random events. The acoustics are wonderful. They've refurbished the theater a few times since i first went to a show there (not quite 100 years ago ) and each time they add to the functionality and beauty of the theater. Highly recommend attending any type of show here. And if mobility is an issue make sure to get tickets on the main floor. Warning the stairs to the 2nd balcony (the cheap seats) are steep!

A place to dress up and enjoy the show. Glad to catch the last show of "The Nutcracker" of 2023. Love the end of Act 1 where bubbles were raining down to the audience.

I went to The Orpheum with some friends to see The Nutcracker. It was my first time here, and it's cute but a tad small overall. The lobby and general waiting areas were cramped as we were navigating to our seats. We sat at the front of the balcony seating and the view was amazing. I can't imaging there being a bad seat anywhere in the theater. I've been to several older theaters, so figured the seats would be tight as well. I'm 5'10 and was extremely uncomfortable throughout the entire show. The show started about 15 minutes late, which was irritating because that meant I had to sit in the tight seat for an extra 15 minutes. Also worth noting, you have to get up and step in the aisle if people need to cross you to get to their seats. A couple was late for the show and half the row had to step into the aisle for them to get through.

We visited to listen to the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra practice. They played beautifully. Sound came be heard clearly from near front row seats, in the mezzanine, and near the top. If you see a show here, you'll enjoy it!

It's a beautiful theatre, in a busy part of town. I was there to see the Andrew Shultz comedy show. Parked next door, but that's a different review! The Orpheum is older, kind of dated. Nice marble stairs. I didn't see an elevator. The staff was good, nice, friendly. I had cheap seats, so ... upstairs and all the way back. I could see the stage, but no facial expressions, and there were times I couldn't hear what was being said on stage.The seats are kind of small and my knees could not comfortably fit without cramming the seat in front of me. I'm not super tall so, it's a consideration. It's ok

The Orpheum Theater is just breathtaking! We LOVED every moment of Four Seasons and the theater itself is out of this world beautiful! Seats in the balconies and logia are a tad tight so be prepared to squeeze in. Seats on the orchestra level are movable and I've heard they are moved sometime to accommodate dancing?? I'd LOVE to go to a concert that allows and or encourages dancing there! No food but drinks are available, no cash. I parked easily at a meter spot right around the corner and didn't have to pay parking bc it was after 6. There are also plenty of garages nearby if you'd prefer that route. Highly recommend you check out the shows at the Orpheum, you will not be disappointed.

Saw one of the greatest concerts of my life here in Khrungabin. This venue outside of the Saenger is the best venue to see a concert in the city. The acoustics are perfect and the lighting that came with the show fit the venue perfectly. I will remember this night for a long time.

The Nutcracker was so good I loved it. The dancers were very skilled and amazing. It smelled so nice in the theater too.
