Brittany Allen: I knew the musical, Once on this Island as a teenager when we did it over 20 years ago. What this cast did was so amazing and beautiful. I haven't seen a live performance in over 10 years and I took my 8 year old. It was her first experience seeing a live performance and she wants to go to more. Your cast was so exceptional. I am so happy this was her first experience in theatre. Such talent ❤️ Thank you to the cast and crew.

Mark Thompson: Every theatrical production I have experienced here has been amazing!

Steve Grody: Always very professional.

Skyler Boeve: I am a transgender female, I went there last night I was treated very kindly. I personally felt safe to be there and watch the show. The show was called "Once on This Island" and was absolutely beautiful. At the end everyone watching gave the amazing actors, actresses, and crew a standing ovation. Highly recommend to go to a play at the Civic Theater if your in GR or visiting the area and they have a Play going on.

Jason Bocade: Great venue. Staff was friendly and it was one of the nicest kept theaters I've ever been in.

Bruce Kraft: Normally the patrons here are wonderful because we all want to watch and enjoy the performances. This time I experienced the person behind me with a plastic water bottle that kept squeezing it and making noise the whole time. Guy this is not a football game. People to the right of us decided to leave early and they actually ran out in the last guy hit me and knock me over. People like that should stay at their football games and be rowdy drink beer swear and run around not at DeVos performance Hall.

Tracey Zeerip: I do not normally listen to Free Beer and Hot Wings, but I bought tickets for my husband and daughter for Christmas. She was unable to attend so I went with my husband. The show was hilarious and the venue was intimate, well organized and staff was friendly

Natalie P: Anti-LGBTQ venue. Book accordingly.

Greg Smolka: Broadway Grand Rapids does a great job. I’ve been blown away by every performance I’ve seen there. There isn’t a bad seat at The DeVos Performane Hall. Highly recommended!

Michael Jackson: Nope.

Dave Hosfelt: Incredibly irresponsible to continue with shows this weekend given the current climate in our Country and this State as it relates to mass gatherings. This total disregard of the warnings given by health professionals and government leaders reeks of a money grab. I'm terribly disappointed and Broadway Grand Rapids should be ashamed.

Edwardo Fuentes: Thank you to all who was part of the Hamilton release day of tickets. We were greeted an hour sale to a warm area of DeVos place. Plenty of coffee, doughnuts and bathrooms with tables and sitting area's. Very organized and well communicated. fair setup avoiding any confusion or anxiety. All these Kept the crowd calm and polite.

Bob Stark: A community jewel and just hitting their stride.Awesome presentations in the rest of the season.

Mike Koelzer: Lady on the phone was really rude when we were trying to sort out some tickets. Left bad taste in our mouth.

Lorraine Couch: I loved a lot of the show's they've bought here.

Dan Frank: Very helpful staff!

Bob Funaro: Best shows!comfortable environment..tk

Rebecca Metelonis: Wonderful venue

Hope Baugher: It's so cool and fun and I like it 👌.

Paula McPhee: We loved the production on the Wizard of Oz! There's not a bad seat in the house. The ballet showcased the hard work of the Junior Ballet Company. Our 6 and 4 year olds were mesmerized!

Michele Geldersma: We saw Spooktacular! My granddaughters & I loved it. Very well done!!

Kathleen Seitz: Not a bad seat in the house. This is a fairly small, intimate theater, dedicated to the Grand Rapids Ballet, so even in the back row, you can see very clearly. The seats are also steep, so there is no problem seeing over the rows in front of you. Even my daughter, who is 7 has no trouble seeing without a booster seat here. The only downside is that there is no orchestra pit, so all of the music is through speakers. Any performances they do with the Grand Rapids Symphony have to be held at DeVos Performance Hall. The sound quality is still good, but it's just not the same as a live orchestra. The upside to this is more frequent performances and more affordable tickets in a theater with better viewing, so it's definitely a worthy trade.The restrooms have always been clean, and there is a coat room. Parking is also free across the street (between the bus depot and Amtrak station), but it does get full close to performance time, so you have to get there a little early. There is plenty of paid parking at the Founder's lot, which is only about a block away.This theater has gone a long way to making ballet affordable and easily accessible, and I have enjoyed all the performances I've seen here. My daughter even said she wanted season tickets from Santa this year.

Renae Hesselink: Very nice. Intimate theater attended a dinner event held on the stage.

Trisha Kivinen: Love this place! Amazing shows! They recently had an outdoor summerfest in their parking lot with dance groups from around Michigan. It was nice to see a glimpse of other dance companies. I still prefer classic ballet for the most part.

patricia morris: Excellent theater space to see the GR Ballet school performances. Very clean and comfortable.

Raimo Karhunen: Great place to watch the ballet

Carl Prieur: Always a joy

Roberta Tesmer: Went to see Johnny the Starfish, beautiful theater and amenities, crafts and fun for the kids!! Cheap $5 show, beautiful dancing, but the show was only 20 minutes, and it was a little confusing. For $5 it was a great value and again a beautiful theater!

MM Bercu: good

Tim Moody: This is a great venue. I took my wife there for valentine's day to watch a ballet. It is very intimate, there are no bad seats.

Emma Hill: The amount of support and appreciation I receive as a volunteer makes me come back again and again. I started volunteering with them in 2019 and 2020 was the only year since then that I haven’t volunteered for at least one show. I love working with everyone and they make such a conscious effort to produce thoughtful, invoking theatre and I love it.
