The Best Performing Arts in Sacramento

Tumble Time Gymnastics

★★★★★ 4.5 (26)

"I have been taking my toddler here to the mommy and me class for a few months now. She has a great time. They have a pretty good variety of schedule options, and weekend options, which some other local gyms don't have. The teacher is consistent (as in, same teacher every time), and does a great job of working with the sometimes challenging toddler population. They do circuit style classes, so there is always a place to go and an activity to do. She does a great job of keeping the class moving. It is $62 a month for the baby class, and I think slightly more expensive as they move up. Make-up policy is reasonable - I think you have a month to schedule a make up class from your missed class. We have been happy so far."

Broadway On Tour

★★★★☆ 4.2 (14)

"Yes, I continue to be impressed with the quality of national touring companies that stop in Sacramento for broadway performances. The Sacramento Community Center maybe isn't as quaint as the theaters on Broadway in NYC but it still is a great place to see a show and it's all about the performance after all. The latest that I saw was Les Miserables, which is one of my favorite shows of all time."

Sacramento Theatre Company

★★★★☆ 4.3 (59)

"Many thanks to our daughter winning tickets & inviting us to seeing Christmas Carol with them! It was both of our first time at this venue. We were able to park at the public multilevel parking garage across the street which was extremely convenient. We didn't take a chance on street parking which can be limiting bc of time constraints plus it didn't appear to be available anyway. The Main Street venue located on H street was perfect sized for this particular holiday show compared to other downtown venues. We highly recommend coming here. It was not a circular theater for the Christmas Carol show as this location used to be the former Music Circus location. The show itself was well done. It was a two hour show with a 20 minute intermission. There was a snack bar available although we didn't take advantage of that as we were limited on time. In fact our seats were in the back row in the left section & were all good for viewing the entire delightful holiday show! We would definitely return if we find another play or musical that would interest us. The Dorothy Puente one sounded fascinating. This large Sacramento Theatre professional company is actually nationally recognized. Can you believe it? This company has been founded since 1942 & has been organized officially in 1945. One of their STC alumni included Tom Hanks. We are certainly very fortunate & blessed to have this locally & not have to travel far for such local talent so support your local businesses!"

Celebration Arts

★★★★★ 4.6 (8)

"I've been enjoying plays at Celebration Arts since 2005. I love the new, bigger theater, with private parking, but appreciated the intimate feel of the original theater. The staff is very friendly, helpful and personable. Shows tend to start on time which is nice, and no eating and drinking allowed in the theater, which helps eliminate external noise. Unlike many businesses, I noticed that Celebration Arts does an amazing job retaining staff (paid or volunteer). It's nice to come back for a new season and see familiar, friendly faces (good job Celebration Arts!). I hope A Raisin in the Sun comes back, and also wish patrons could submit suggestions on plays we'd like to see in Sacramento. Celebration Arts is my favorite playhouse, I try make every production each season. Sacramento, please support your local theater. It's a sweet gem we are blessed to have in the community."

Ooley Theatre

★★★★☆ 4.3 (10)

"We recently enjoyed a performance at this tiny venue. There are maybe 40 seats? Coffee is complimentary; if you want snacks (or if you're picky about your coffee), you should bring your own.They're friendly and low-key and you can usually stick around and talk with the performers if you'd like.For about the price of sitting in leftover popcorn at your average movie theater (if you factor in bringing your own snacks), you'll be able to see a live performance and brandish your feel-good badge for supporting local arts. Afterward, Temple Coffee & Tea - or Revolution Wines -- are just a 2-minute walk."

Amasingh Magic

★★★★★ 5 (100)

"Virkim was the life of the party! We hired him to perform at my 40th Diamond Heist birthday party. Working with him was so easy, he graciously accommodated me. Vikram can fit into any party , he did a slight-of- hand show, going table to table, amusing my guests. My sister is a skeptic and even she was amazed.!! The coolest card trick ever was how he spelled my name with the cards... you'd have to see it!!!Overall, Vikram was the perfect addition to the party of mystery, wonder, and fun! I would definitely hire him again for another party and Most definitely recommend him to you !!"

Broadway Sacramento

★★★★★ 4.5 (12)

"Grateful to Broadway Sacramento and Music Circus for bringing national touring productions here. Yes, I will occasionally splurge on shows in San Francisco at the Orpheum, Curran, or Golden Gate Theaters but #HomeIsSacramento. Seeing Phantom of the Opera and Aida in NYC are what truly hooked me, but my first show in Sacramento was Les Miserables back in 2003/2004. I'm not a season ticketholder although I did tend to purchase 3-show packages when available or single shows via the $35 Under 35 Club. The best season ever was in 2008 when they still had 7 shows for Music Circus. A few times I was also lucky enough to have comp tickets to dress rehearsals of The Drowsy Chaperone and The Wiz as part of the Broadway Sacramento Ambassador program #InstaYelpaTweetaSnap or Wells Fargo friends (thanks, Gregg R.!). The Music Circus (summertime series) at the Wells Fargo Pavilion is my favorite especially because of the stage in-the-round audience layout -- every seat is a great seat and they're so creative with the sets and scene changes! It used to literally be a circus tent but it's a nice air-conditioned venue with plenty of restrooms, courtyard space, and subscriber's lounge. At Music Circus I've seen Annie, Disney's Beauty and the Beast, The Producers, Annie Get Your Gun, Miss Saigon, Disney's The Little Mermaid, South Pacific, My Fair Lady, The Sound of Music, Sweeney Todd, Gypsy, Evita, Little Shop of Horrors, Sister Act, Disney's The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Newsies, Singin' in the Rain, Swing, Hairspray, Dreamgirls...At the Broadway Series (fall/winter/spring, Community Center Theater/SAFE CU PAC) I've attended Chicago, Jersey Boys, Mamma Mia, In The Heights, West Side Story, Wicked, Les Miserables, RENT, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Aladdin, Spring Awakening, Motown the Musical, Bodyguard the Musical, White Christmas, Disney's The Lion King, Kinky Boots, A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder, Phantom of the Opera, Cats, Starlight Express, Avenue Q, Book of Mormon, Dear Evan Hansen, Hamilton, Officer and a Gentleman, and Anastasia. Opening night is generally Tuesdays, and I'm partial to weeknight evening shows or matinee weekends if possible. At the Wells Fargo Pavilion, every seat is great like I said. At the SAFE CU PAC, you can choose the orchestra, lower balcony or upper balcony depending on your price range. Broadway Sacramento has wonderful offerings, a pretty good mix of older and newer shows, and I try to catch at least one show per season for Broadway Sac and Music Circus. Sometimes I will check out SF shows but also don't overlook great local community theater performances such as Green Valley Theatre Company, Davis Musical Theater, Woodland Opera House, or other venues like Harris Center at Folsom Lake College, Mondavi Center at UC Davis, Sacramento Theater Company, Black Box Theater West Sac, or Missouri Street (Fairfield) to get your fix."

Auburn State Theatre

★★★★☆ 4.2 (17)

"We came by for a showing of my daughter's film which was selected along with five other films for the Auburn Artwalk. It was a project she had done for her film class. There were six films selected and it was an Open House to the theatre. We were quite impressed at how clean and well kept this old theatre was. The theatre is used more for concerts and small venues. I'd gladly come back for other events. The theatre is small but big on character and charm."

Pamela Trokanski Dance Workshop

★★★★☆ 4.2 (13)

"I can here for a ballet drop in and the instructors were very welcoming and nice. It had been a while since I step foot in a studio for abut 8 years, but they made sure I was placed in the right level class. There are many dance studio rooms here and all types of dance (lyrical, ballet, hip-hop) however, no tap =(. The instructor gave many technique corrections which I like because I want to make sure I am executing each dance move correctly. I suggest if you want proper technique, GO HERE!"

Folsom Renaissance Faire

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (22)

"I was torn between a 3 and a 4 or seems like every year is the end thing price are higher and entertainment is budgeted. It was a pretty good day.. the parking was neat by however up a very steep hill there was handicap accommodation and accessible areas. I came in and immediately sat found to watch the Joslin fighting. It was hot and someone was screaming near us.. lol we then walked around and realized it was just a circle. There were some interactions but limited it seems like more of buying then entertainment. Food had limited options and long lines in heat. Many people dressed up and was in costume however no one looked to stay more than about a hour. For prices might not attend again"

Studio T Arts & Entertainment

★★★★☆ 4.2 (9)

"GREAT facility with talented, committed, and knowledgable instructors. Very reasonable and flexible. Miss Tee is the BOMB!!!"

Wells Fargo Pavillion

★★★★★ 4.6 (7)

"Sacramento's Premiere Dramatic & Musical Theatre Venue!SITREPI have always loved theatre-in-the-round, so when I had the opportunity to go see a musical production here at the Wells Fargo Pavillion ("Pavillion"), I jumped on it.https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/wells-fargo-pavillion-sacramento?select=1zqWYACRgvjRFVYqCtC8EATHE SETUPAnd the Music Circus Subscriber Showcase 2018 was just the ticket to test out the range of the theater's capabilities when I was out with my Drama-Musical Peeps on this evening.THEATRE METRICS* There really isn't a bad seat in the Pavillion - the theatre-in-the-round provides for greater opportunities for people to be close to the stage since seating surrounds the stage, rather than being "tunneled" in one direction from it.https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/wells-fargo-pavillion-sacramento?select_video=_rk25iFx4U56jUjmX9LaIg* The Pavillion amenities are very nice with large bathrooms and concessions available* The Pavillion courtyard is also a very nice gathering point for groups of individuals. * The Pavillion pretty is saddled between Downtown and Midtown, it being right on the corner of 15th & H Streets: this presents an issue with on-street parking since there isn't enough. However, there is a parking structure right along H Street, with it's entrance on 14th Street, and exit on 15th Street. There is also a light-rail station @ 12th & H Streets.THE LOWDOWNThe Pavillion is an excellent theatre to see dramatic and musical productions."

Chautauqua Playhouse

★★★★☆ 3.9 (13)

"There's not a bad seat in the house at this theatre. Very cozy little place. Everything screams "community production" about it - which is a good thing! We should all support local theatre. Located at the end of a long driveway, it takes a little finding at first. I believe it is physically a part of the La Sierra Community Center? I don't think they are affiliated though. Despite the downturn in the economy, I am sure that this place will stay. It still can pack 'em in!"

SAFE Credit Union Convention Center

★★★★☆ 3.6 (14)

"I find myself in convention centers frequently because of how many conferences I attend each year. I thought Sacramento's Convention Center was gorgeous. It felt very new, clean and well kept. The conference spaces were lovely and spacious! The convention center is conveniently located downtown and within walking distance of a bunch of different restaurants and hotels."

School of Rock

★★★★☆ 4.1 (9)

"My daughter loves singing and has been bugging us to let her come to School of Rock. We finally came last night for a trial lesson and I'm really excited that we did. The inside has such a cool relaxed music studio vibe, I think I spent most of the time walking around and checking everything out from the different rooms to all of the awesome artwork on the walls. I even love their giant wall where all the kids sign and doodle on it!When we arrived, one of the owners welcomed us and gave us a tour. I love that they have glass doors so you can see other students practicing everything from drums, to bass, to singing! As much as you'd think all of the noise could be a bit much, I actually found it relaxing and liked hearing all the different instruments. My daughter's singing coach (Cale) was very patient and kind and she left even more excited to join than when we arrived. When we left, the receptionist gave us a flyer with the pricing and class options for my daughter's age - I thought it was a bit steep at first, but it includes 8 classes a month - 2 a week - 1 one on one session for 30 minutes and 1 group lesson for an hour and a half. Everyone there was so nice and you can tell the coaches/teachers love their job and what they can offer to these kids! The coaches offer everything from bass, guitar, drum, singing, and even keyboard/piano. They also offer summer camps, workshops and they even have the kids put on concerts!We will definitely be joining soon and I can't wait to see where School of Rock takes my daughter's confidence! Check them out!"

El Dorado Dance Academy

★★★★☆ 4.1 (19)

"What a beautiful space for dance for all individuals young and old. My daughter and I attend El Dorado Dance Academy for their baby ballet classes and it's just a lovely environment to teach the principles of dance, importance of body movement, self-confidence and a safe space to meet new friends. The staff are very friendly and personable also. Parking can be a bit tricky during peak hours but the studio is located in a business park with lots of parking. My daughter and I love the baby ballet with parental participation class. It's a great class for me to bond with her and have Miss Michelle teach her the basic movements of dance (first, second positions), how to feel comfortable moving across the floor, using her imagination, meeting new friends and also getting out of the house! I hope they open up the hip-hop classes for my son on Saturdays (he watches his little sister and mentions how he wants to do hip-hop soon). I look forward to bringing my kids here and recommending this place to others. Thank you!"

Fancy Feet Dance Academy & Parties

★★★★★ 4.5 (61)

"This is our 3rd recital she is been at Fancy Feet since she was 20 months , she loves to dance !! And for some reason they make the dance, super easy for the kids to remember . It will be such a great memory when she grow up !! Must try when they are young !! When we are older I'll become adult we are no longer going to ballet classes anymore !!"

Fair Oaks Theatre Festival

★★★★★ 4.5 (6)

"Attended a show at this festival just a couple of weeks ago with a group of friends and had a blast! Their production of "The Great American Trailer Park" was hillarious and we had a fabulous time! The only bad thing we had about the theater was the selection of refreshments. I would definitely recommend this as a fun, inexpensive activity for anyone who loves or has not been to a live theater production and would like to go. The staff is friendly and courteous. Theater clean and well organized especially for an outdoor theater! Some of their productions are definitely not kid friendly, while others are great for kids of all ages! However, they are good about warning you up front if something may not be appropriate fair for the younger members of your family."

Resurrection Theatre

★★★★☆ 4 (4)

"This is a cute little very personal theater. The place is hidden and kept very clean ( bathrooms included ) and the staff is very nice and helpful. We watched 3 torch trilogy and it was very good. The actors wonderful and so was the props. Can't wait to return to see what will be next."

Hawkins School of Performing Arts

★★★★☆ 3.9 (28)

"Some friends and I took a modern dance class here last night. The instruction was completely different from the ballet class I took so long ago.We warmed up for a good 10-15 minutes, went over the steps several times before starting , the teacher was informative, friendly and didn't ignore us because we were slightly older than the other girls in class....Not only was this class a great workout, it was fun! I love dance and this school offers lot of variety, from Tap, Jazz, ballet, lyrical, jazzercise for adult etc. The rooms and waiting area are extremely clean and tidy, no children running around or screaming. They run a "tight ship" it seems and I like that! It was such a great class I'm thinking about continuing my instruction here (at least for lyrical/modern). I noticed they no longer have an adult ballet class on the schedule, probably for the best. There other classes seem much much better Haha..."

Galaxy Dance Arts

★★★★☆ 4 (4)

"We've had such a great experience over the last few years with this studio! I can't give enough praise. My daughter had always wanted to dance so we found this studio on FB and the results have been amazing. My daughter has a physical disability and that doesn't phase them. They've all accepted her with open arms, hearts and patience. Everyone, including the students, have all been very kind. My daughter has learned so much and has gained so much strength here. She takes ballet and contemporary. I highly recommend this studio. It's for all ages too! I've taken adult ballet, and the adult classes are growing in popularity!"

Tricks Gymnastics

★★★★☆ 4.2 (81)

"My daughter has been going to trucks gym for over a year now, she was 18 months when she started and she really looks forward to class each week. She loves her teacher. They stick to similar routines so it's easy for the little ones to learn and follow directions. She recently started dance and she loves it just as much."

Joanna's Kids R It

★★★★★ 4.8 (22)

"Our family has been with Kids R It since 1993, and now in it's 30th anniversary year, we're still here! Dance and Gymnastics programs are run by staff who have either grown up through Kids R It, or have blended in to the program seamlessly. These individuals really make you feel like you are part of the family.The cost of the classes is very reasonable, with altering prices for number of classes enrolled in depending on number of family members. Classes begin based on age/ability level, and students are then assessed by the instructors for more advanced/challenging placement as needed"

Roseville Theatre Arts Academy

★★★★☆ 4.4 (39) • $

"My son had a field trip to the Roseville theater I signed up to help out and enjoy the field trip with my son! I had never been to the Roseville theater before it was pretty nice to check it out. I love older buildings, so walking into this building was exciting for me to look at everything, the decor that older feel ! The play we watch was called Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day! The play was excellent. The performance was beyond good all the kids loved it . I really enjoyed also . The singing and the acting was very good for a small theater in Roseville. They are very talented. On the way out I seen that they have more plays coming like a SpongeBob musical .I would definitely want to come back with my other son and my husband to check it out. I seen that they had a snack bar. It was not open at the time of the field trip but I'm assuming it is for regular plays so that would be nice to check out. .Overall, it was a fun time. My son had never been to a theater or seen a play before, so it was fun to experience that with him.! I would like to come back and enjoy with the rest of my family and try out the food. They have their maybe grab a glass of wine and watch something. Everyone there is very talented. I enjoyed it."

Veterans Memorial Amphitheatre

★★★★☆ 4 (3)

"What a fun venue in our back yards!We came to Comedy Under the Stars as a Friday night date. Gotta love doing it with your spouse. This was the final night of the season. They work with comedy club of SACRAMENTO.The comedians loved the fair oaks chickens. Host was Jordan Connolly and very funny.The first comedian was Jason Cheney The headliner was Tom McLain or "Big Tom"All were good and we had a great time, even though the comedians weren't truly mainstream. It's is a great venue and good entertainment for. They have snacks and drinks available to purchase as well as seat cushions. It's a better nights entertainment than sitting on the couch."

Big Idea Theatre

★★★★★ 4.7 (30)

"This community theater is an appropriately named little bastion for big, bold artistic ideas right off of Del Paso Boulevard. They choose their productions wisely, whether they be something more obscure or a unique take on an old classic. Between the acting and the artistic commitment of everyone who works here, this is a theater every local supporter of the arts must experience. I came down to watch "The Exit Interview," a "philosophical comedy" and mostly two person show. The setup is small and the theater seats roughly 40. You'd never know how small it is once the production begins because the expert staging, set dressing and acting make you feel like the venue is much larger. The show was a hit and received a standing ovation. Mama Kim's, an acclaimed restaurant I have yet to visit, is located right in front so you could easily make an evening out of dinner and a show. The theater entrance is a little hard to find; it's back off the street through the restaurant patio."

Sacramento Memorial Auditorium

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (80) • $$

"This is a tough venue for musical stage performances. The floor is one level (maybe VERY slightly inclined) so floor seats can be challenging for shorter people. Also, the seats on the floor are temporary and installed with no continuity - the space between rows varies from not even inches to almost a foot. The row behind us had room for people to place full handbags between the seats. Our row barely allowed us to shuffle sideways. The signage isn't great for floor seats since they aren't permanent.The acoustics were decent and the stage itself was well done. The set has elaborate screens and those were visible at all angles and done well. There were no ushers handing out programs so we actually sat down before realizing we would need to head back out to the lobby to pick up our programs. The bathrooms were a challenge too. There were multi-stall portables located outside of the building. When I stopped into them after the show (the lines were too bad at intermission) they were locked. Why would you lock a bathroom without allowing patrons a chance to use them before exiting? We didn't purchase any food or drinks so I can't speak to the quality but at intermission, when heading to the restroom, the lines looked long as usual. No idea how fast they moved. I can't wait until the remodel is done and we can return to our normal venue. I would hesitate to attend another performance here unless I had no other place to see the performance."

Black Box Theater

★★★★☆ 4.2 (5)

"First time here, for Runaway Stage Productions' "Avenue Q" (straying from their usual 24th Street Theatre location). Located on the second floor of the West Sac Community Center, this building felt brand new and altogether inviting. Grabbed a vanilla chai tea latte (although the spiced chai tea latte is just as good) from Cafe La Boutique (La Bou), which we were free to take inside the theater as well. The second floor boasted a Sunshine Deck and beautiful "Fluttering Canopy" glass art piece above the main stairwell. Restrooms downstairs with plenty of signage so you couldn't miss them very clean. The Black Box Theatre itself could seat about 125 people max capacity, seats were comfortable (but not the norm cushioned folding type) for the ~2 hour show. Very intimate setting, absolutely perfect for the puppeteering (should I say, Muppeteering?) in Avenue Q, with actors utilizing the onset stage as well as the aisles and exits. Not sure where the orchestra was hiding, although I'm pretty sure there was a live orchestra, hah. Two flatscreens included for the show, not sure if those are normally part of the performance space. Bravo! Easy to get to off of Jefferson Blvd/Tower Bridge Gateway, and we were able to use the Joint Use Parking Area shared by the Community Center and the Library. My only regret? Not getting a photo with Trekkie Monster or the Bad Idea Bears."

School of Rock

★★★★☆ 4.3 (33) • $$$

"My daughter has attended SOREG from just about the beginning. The staff has been great. She has been through a few different instructors due to time conflicts, one instructor was traveling with his band, and we love how flexible they are. They are always willing to work with your schedule. From Cecilia(owner) to Matt, Jared, and two of the 3 Jasons that work there, they're all great. It has given my daughter a positive place to learn and foster her love for the guitar and Ukulele. They have new band performance groups every few months and that gives the students a way to explore different genres of music, as well as getting to know some of the other students there. The only thing that I would suggest is to allow the kids to suggest songs for the Performance groups that they sign up for to feel as if they have a little input on what they are playing. They'd probably be a lot more enthusiastic about having a say on what they will be performing on stage.If your child enjoys playing music or would love to learn how to, I highly recommend School of Rock Elk Grove."

Amaluna - Cirque du Soleil

★★★★☆ 3.8 (29)

"Exquisite Creative Interpretation of Shakespeare's "The Tempest"SITREPI got to enjoy the show with my friend Larissa J. - a HUUUGE fan of the "Cirque du Soleil"-brand w- and what we watched, heard and experienced in total, was a very beautiful story of shipwrecked lives, but transformed by love found in an exotic paradise of wonders & whimsy.THE SETUPThis incarnation of "AMALUNA" is part of the touring show that started in San Francisco in late 2013 and has now migrated over the years until now here at Raley's field in West Sacramento (home of our AAA-team the "River Cats"). AMALUNA CREATIONFrom the great minds of Cirque du Soleil, AMALUNA premiered in Montréal, Canada, on April 19, 2012, created by Diane Paulus, one of the few Americans to rise high in the ranks of the Cirque de Soleil production realm. Diane became Artistic Director of Theater & Opera of the American Repertory Theater (ART) at Harvard University in 2009, but she is probably best know recently for her nomination for the Best Director Tony Award for her revival of the musical "Hair".Diane and her hubby Randy Weiner co-founded a small theater troupe in New York City called "Project 400 Theatre Group". Here they created avant-garde musical productions which merged classic theater and modern music, and their FIRST production was a rock version of Shakespeare's, "The Tempest". The scouts of Cirque de Soleil looking for good source material from contemporary theater stumbled upon this gem and - flash forward some years - had her make an entire AMALUNA themed Cirque de Soleil event also loosely based upon this Shakespearean classic!THE AMALUNA STORYThe AMALUNA story takes place on an island governed by moon goddesses ("Ama" = Mothers; "Luna" = Moon). During a storm, there is a shipwreck and several men are washed up to this beautiful Island Paradise. One of the divinity's daughter falls in love with one of the young men, and the trials that their love must endure make for the interesting chapters of contest that this production is all about.FUN AMALUNA FACTS* I loved how the central part of the AMALUNA stage platform was like a giant daisy wheel (lazy Susan) that allowed it to revolve like a suspended carousel. It is 25-feet diameter and weighs 6,000 pounds.* Other than the AMALUNA carousel, the set design has very few moving parts allowing for focus to be on the performers.* There are 174 branches in 534 sections (90 in the canopy and 84 upstage) making a total of 1.1 mile of branches.* The upper tent-top grid - that suspended all of the AMALUNA aerial artists and from whence wonders of light and shimmering beauty were dropped upon the staged - weighs 8,600 pounds and includes three acrobatic winches, each able to lift loads up to 400 pounds at 10 feet per second. And in fact, I WAS amazed at how fast those 3 beautiful AMALUNA Moon goddesses shot up so fast to the center of upward top! (There was also a cynical part of me that kept imagining, "Christ. What if that beast of a mechanism accidentally gets "unbolted" and crashes down to center stage?!? But luckily THAT never happened)* The center AMALUNA acrobatic winch in the middle of the carousel can lift up to 1,000 pounds at 10 feet per second, and this certainly was tested when the Queen Lunar goddess invited the vocalist-cellist to sit amidst with her in her"Sliver of Moon" and play for the Island denizons.* And how about that giant AMALUNA Fishbowl? The bowl part alone is 5 feet 5 inches tall, 7 feet 3 inches in diameter, and weighs 5,500 pounds when filled with water. But that was a beautiful scene when the moon daughter and the shipwrecked sailor acrobatically seduce each other atop, aside and INSIDE the fishbowl. I LOVE it all.LE COMEDYI almost feel guilty calling these talented individuals "clowns", but the talented duet - one a denizon female of the Island, the other the shipwrecked captain - find their OWN passion amidst very humorous scenarios that act as timed pieces to allow the aerial and acrobatic performers to rest up, grab a water, change costume, and than "have at it" again on the stage.REFRESHMENTS!You expect drinks and munchies to be a BIT more expensive when at special events, like games, shows and *pop-up* tents like this, right? But even with each of our $14 beers https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=wAuHQGXB5Wfyu05B6xxWbQ&userid=3mNz5nQFTIBQm0oU5mBR0w..and our $6 gummy bears, https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=iyCFy90JlxVVbsxnnIaAUA&userid=3mNz5nQFTIBQm0oU5mBR0w..we were still caught up in the magic and whimsy of the moment and it was worth it.THE LOWDOWNAMALUNA is a beautiful, majestic, and exquisitely exotic themed event that will dazzle you with it's beauty and love of aerial performances, exciting dances & lively music!"

Bliss Urban Arts Center

★★★★☆ 4.3 (17)

"Great Zumba class!! Perfect workout, incredible gem of a studio, warm and inviting energy! So excited to start coming here for a fantastic Zumba experience! Instructor is talented and passionate!"

Harris Center/Three Stages

★★★★☆ 3.9 (98)

"This place is spectacular..Do you like live music or plays up close and personal this is your place..They have pleyof parking the tickets are reasonable for something of this..They have elevators if you can't use the stairs also the bathrooms are well kept and it's close to so many food choices..I went here for a Christmas acrobatic musical play..It was over the top amazing with the stunts these performers did as well as great vocals on singing Christmas cheer and a story line as well..You must go see this all ages and so so much fun..If you need some cheer get out and see a live performance..If it's a play comedy or live music see it all in Folsom..fun fun"

Broadway at Music Circus

★★★★☆ 4.4 (122)

"We had such a fun time here for The Music Man. It was our very first time coming here and we were surprised by how big it was and the set up outside for popcorn, drinks and snacks- so fun!Inside there are more opportunities for concessions and the seating is all around the central stage. They also have screens that are used to add to the production. They don't allow photos or videos of the performances but the use of the central stage was so cool and they're able to rotate it to add to the movement and experience. I would say there isn't a bad seat in the house.We'll be keeping our eyes out for more opportunities to stop in and enjoy more local productions."

SAFE Credit Union Performing Arts Center

★★★★☆ 3.6 (185)

"Good venue in downtown Sacramento. I went for the grinch musical. Fun performance! This place has a lot of seats and they are pretty spacious, which tall people like me can use and have some space. Everything is organized and clean including the bathrooms. Make sure you check for restaurant discounts if you're going out nearby."

California Stage Co

★★★★☆ 4.1 (15)

"I've seen multiple shows put on by the Actor's Workshop of Sacramento this year and would absolutely recommend them for future shows! I haven't taken lessons from them personally, but my best friend currently is, and is benefitting from it tremendously. I just saw her as Peter Quince in their production of A Midsummer Night's Dream, which was delightful. This show still has two weekends left to go if you want to check it out! You won't see my friend as she's headed to NYC, but they double cast several of the roles, so no worries there.So why should you see this show? If you haven't seen it before, it's a must. It is the most enchanting and entertaining of Shakespeare's comedies. You don't even have to be a fan of or have a base knowledge of Shakespeare to enjoy this play. It has a ton of visual humor, gorgeous costumes, hilarious moments, and characters with big personalities. Their production includes people of all ages, including children. My favorite performances were those of Peter Quince (yes that's bias on my part), Puck, Oberon, Cobweb, and of course, Bottom. The entire company was brilliant and I laughed so hard I cried at one point. The costumer also did a fabulous job on the whimsical ensembles. Sooo many fairy lights!!! I'm glad I got to tell her so in person. :-)Tickets will cost you $20 if you want to see this show during its run through October. (Students and Seniors can get in for $18.) October 4-13, shows will be once a day on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Performances are on Fridays and Saturdays at 8 pm and Sundays at 2 pm. The Actor's Workshop utilizes a couple different theatres in the complex on R street, so do be sure you know which theatre your show is located in. If you plan to see AMND the next two weekends it's running, it's located on the California Stage that faces the train tracks on R street. I've also been here for Actor's Workshop Stay, Carl Stay and The Audience, among other short plays, and they have all been excellent. Parking is available unmetered on R street and on 25th and 26th streets as well. They sell wine during shows with a $3 suggested donation per cup. We had a choice of two reds and two whites today. Very nice touch!"
